In a move I think no one saw coming, entertainment giant Disney has bought Marvel for 4 Billion dollars.  With it Disney gets rights to over 5000 Marvel comic book characters and properties, and some truly interesting prospects for video games.

Disney Ultimate Alliance?  Kingdom Hearts: Wolverine Edition?  Marvel vs Disney Fighter?  The possibilities are endless.

I just hope they keep Marvel Island open at Universal. Those rides are the best!

[edit"> Also, I have a poster of that Marvel image up in my lab at school.

I do my best! (P.S. Don't die on a glass of water, it's embarrassing if it's not in drove amounts.)

Like everyone else, I totally did not see that coming.

Personally, I dont think I would want to see a Kingdom Hearts-esque crossover. FF is one thing, but Marvel...its just too different...

So long as Marvel gets to remain in creative control over their own company, I don't see this as a bad thing.
