Disney Owns Marvel
August 31st 2009 22:48
The Walt Disney Company owns Marvel Entertainment now. Disney bought the comic book character company with a stock and cash business deal worth $4 billion. I am sure this will make quite a change for the Mouse House and means Disney now owns more than 5,000 Marvel characters, including Thor, Spider-Man, Fantastic-Four, Iron Man, X-Men and Captain America.
The business transaction needs to be sanctioned by the antitrust review and approved by Marvel shareholders, but the deal is as good as animation.
Next time I visit Disney World, my kids will be getting their pictures taken with Iron Man and Wolverine.
