“You’ve heard of the golden rule, haven’t you? Whoever has the gold makes the rules!” – Jafar (Aladdin)
Marvel Comics has a long history of initiating litigation or the threat thereof. Over the years Marvel Comics has put their legal team to task on all manner of actions. From their failed attempt to sue Defiant Comics to blocking DC’s planned “tribute” to the X-Men. And beyond all of that there was the ghastly period known as “Marvelution”, when the industry giant sought to become an industry of their own. And failed.
In this installment of "Comics, Commerce, and the All-Mighty Buck" Andy and Cole take on Marvel Comics. When the House of Ideas becomes the House of Lawsuits and Legal Strong-Arming is something lost in the process? And though we call it issue #9 at the opening, it is in fact #10 we assure you. Listen in true believers!
