Well, Marvel is definitely trying to reach new demographics.
throwing EVERYTHING at the wall now.
I think it is smart cross marketing. My kids have never been excited about comics. Eh are thrilled with getting the Marvel Skins in Fortnite though. If Marvel can cross advertise and potentially bring in more readers or collectors, is that a bad thing??
I think we can certainly say it’s more than what DC is doing at the moment…
Ive ordered the Fantastic Four #24 Fortnight cover. Donny Cates on his twitter feed has retweeted a message from Big Bang Comics stating the short ingame Thor comic that Donny wrote is included inside FF #24. Im not sure if there is anything important happens in the ingame comic but it may be speculation worthy somewhere down the line.
Thanks Steven. That’s interesting to know.
