Just read a little more on this. Though, I am not really a big Marvel fan {I don't read comics}, I enjoy the movies and such. I'm mainly curious about this situation because of the fact that a whole section on Universal Studios' theme park here in Orlando is devoted to comic book characters - most of which are Marvel. Its also rather interesting to me to see how this is going to affect the company I work for - considering they're the ones who designed Spider-Man {as well as a number of other rides in Universal Studios/Islands of Adventure}.
I read this article this morning on the Orlando Sentinel website. It has a little more of an update on how Disney buying Marvel will affect Universal Studios.
