Funny how true is this. Mutant turns to kiddie stuffs. Disney Buys Marvel headlines are now known to be the truth, as they have put up $4 Billion to acquire Marvel Comics and other divisions like Marvel Entertainment, the TV and cinema wing, which has been wildly successful. Disney films and Marvel films sell incredibly well – so the business move makes sense, and it's doubtful that Spiderman will battle a singing rabbit. In the last few years, entertainment revenues have slipped, especially in the face of recession. So when hard money loans are put up by Disney as Disney buys Marvel – rest easy, Marvel's integrity won't suffer.

I find Nate Beller's cartoons very though provoking and masterfully done.
I even find them somewhat offensive at times but that is the purpose of an editorial isn't it?
