    Bah,...
    I am Done Debating The Idea of people getting their Panties in a Ruffle over a Fictional Idea that I enjoyed, & Has little or No Impact with Children of the World even more so Compaired with The Real Life Crap on the News 3 Times a Day,.. or All Day Long. Zombies & Everything "Evil" in Comics is really only less than a Fraction of Whats Being sold Comicbook Related out there Today. Whatever Floats Your Boat,.. ***** & Complain & Debate away.

    Check out The Ultimates....plus the Hulk in the 616 Universe has been getting lotsa booty this last year or so and has 2 or 3 illegit kids out there. And this is in the mainstream Marvel Universe books. I expect the Hulk to SMASH things...not be a deadbeat dad.

    But the Zombie Stuff is Already Marketed for Adults only,.. the Books all Have The Suggested Mature Reader Tags on them,.. At My comicbook Shop they don't even put the Books with the Regular or Kiddie Stuff,.. they are in the Mature Section
    Not at my LCS....on the shelf with the mainstream stuff,unbagged at that....

    Spider-man & Friends was a Cartoon that came out in the 70's, was it not ?
    I think he is referring to the "Spider-Man and Friends" pre-school brand that is marketed on toys, clothes and diapers. Yes diapers.

    The Marvel Zombies comics may be labeled for adults, but that doesn't stop comic shops from placing the merchandise based on the book front and center in their stores. When your kid has smiling happy Captain America in the car, and walks in to find rotting, skull-open Cap on the shelf, it's a bit jarring, and very unsettling to a young super hero fan.

    As I have said, I am a prude about this kind of stuff. I'm not saying you can't craft stories for a more mature audience, but it's a slippery slope. To me, it's bad marketing to have Zombie Spidey co-exist with pre-school Spidey on merchandise.

    Did you even read the Books,.. or are you just feeding off of the Non-Love of the Idea ?


    It's beyond inappropriate to have cannible zombie Spiderman co-existing with Spiderman and friends.
    AHHH,.. They Don't Bro... For 1,.. Zombie Spider-Man is from a Different Reality,.. So thats Not even the Spider-Man Every Knows from the Comics..., For 2,.. Spider-man & Friends was a Cartoon that came out in the 70's, was it not ?


    If they want stuff like Hulk being a rapist and Marvel Zombies, fine. But then sell and market to adults only.
    I Missed out on the Rapist Hulk Stuff,.. & Probably Also Missed your Attempt at Humor with your Post ..., But the Zombie Stuff is Already Marketed for Adults only,.. the Books all Have The Suggested Mature Reader Tags on them,.. At My comicbook Shop they don't even put the Books with the Regular or Kiddie Stuff,.. they are in the Mature Section,.. I am pretty sure a Comicbook Owner would Not let a 5 yr old Walk up to the Counter with some Zombie Marvel Books For Purchase,.. & I was at ToysRus Yesterday,.. & Scene no Zombie Toys in the Kiddie Section either.

    Taking it one step further:

    Mickey Mouse Clubhouse of M: Minnie remembers she had some nephews who were wiped out of continuity and goes ape-crap and destroys half of the Disney universe. Donald Duck sides with the Toon Registration Act. Mickey idealistically opposes him. The old clubhouse is torn asunder. Goofy publicly reveals his identity as Super-Goof and sides with Donald...etc, etc.

    I'm disappointed in you all. I see this as a golden opportunity.

    I'm not too sure how good a fit this will be. I guess it depends on which umbrella they find themselves... or perhaps Marvel Studios (and thus Marvel Comics) will have some autonomy as a separate arm?

    Although how have other studios fared after being bought by The Mouse?
    Mirimax/Dimension is the only one that comes to mind. Even internal studios like Touchstone and Hollywood Pictures never really took off on their own... I think Touchstone is now the banner that they will be releasing Dreamworks pictures under.

    I guess the one thing we can hope for is Pixar produced Marvel 3-D animated movies?

    Hopefully with Disney calling the shots we won't see anymore Zombies. The Marvel Universe is in pretty bad shape, in my opinion, and could use a re-branding. It's beyond inappropriate to have cannible zombie Spiderman co-existing with Spiderman and friends. If they want stuff like Hulk being a rapist and Marvel Zombies, fine. But then sell and market to adults only.

    the next issue of spiderman is going to go alittle something like this

    Peter: "Hey MJ, I really have strong feelings for you. Some might even call it love... So I'd like to take our relationship to the next level."

    MJ: "Oh Tiger, do you really mean it?"

    Peter: "Yes. Will you take this promise ring to abstain until marriage?"

    MJ: "I thought you'd never ask."

    [Next Panel just after the proposal]

    *Knock, Knock*

    Peter: "Who is it?"

    King Pin: "It's Wilson Fisk, the King Pin. I hereby renounce my life of crime, and accept full responsibility for my actions. Plus I'm giving all my money to charity."

    I'd like to see Disney use some of the magic they're known for to restore the Spider-Man universe to where it was prior to One More Day.....

    It's sorta fitting in a way......Time Warner owns Superman and Bugs Bunny and now Disney owns their rival counterparts Spider-Man and Mickey Mouse......Let the battle begin!
