Comcast vows to bid on Fox, dashing nerds' hopes for Marvel crossovers
Posted in: Uncategorized
Comcast has announced it may step in with its own bid to acquire 21st Century Fox’s entertainment assets, potentially blocking a deal that Disney had already announced it had agreed to go through with to the tune of $50-plus billion.
There is one cohort in particular that stands to be the biggest loser if Comcast succeeds: Comic book fans.
Disney, of course, owns the characters that make up the Avengers and Fox owns the X-Men, two beloved franchises that have not been able to appear in the same films because of their rival owners.
