I think this is great for Marvel. Even with their movie success the comic part of the business hasn’t managed to get back into stores in any meaningful way. When I was a kid comics were sold every place you found magazines. Now not so much.

Disney on the other hand has distribution channels that Marvel alone could only dream of.

It’s no secret that the average age of comic fans has pushed into the 20s at this point and if my childhood is any indicator that has a lot to do with comics being completely absent from your average convenience and/or grocery store.
