them, at least in that particular direction. I'm not sure which set of stereotypes here is the more hysterical: that Disney is kidified and dumbed-down, that Marvel is a creative powerhouse, or that DC Comics is more family-friendly. So Disney will give the same treatment to the X-Men and the Punisher as they gave to Tarzan. You know, initially I found this news disturbing. My brain instantly turned anti-Disney due to conditioning (self-imposed). Oh no! Disney's going to suck the life out

down Marvel characters? They might modify some slightly to work with a larger project, but chances are if they want family-friendly superheroes, they'll just create new ones, and they'll be as obnoxiously popular as Hannah Montana.
