    Punisher vs. Goofy.

    Or perhaps Punisher and Goofy become great pals. Let's see how Disney screws Marvel up. I really can't stand them.

    Good for Disney...

    I think they will be able to do some pretty good tie-ins with Marvel. Definitely movies, problably some stuff with the theme parks, etc.

    Evidently Stan Lee likes the deal:
    STAN LEE: "It was exciting. I think it’s the best thing for the two companies. The synchronicity is perfect. Disney makes great movies, but you need a subject to make the movies out of. Marvel has a library of (more than 5,000) characters. Certainly half of them would make great movies."

    "Being associated with Disney is the dream of a lifetime. The things Disney did just knocked me out (when I was young) — Mickey Mouse to Bambi and Pinocchio and Snow White. And then there were the nature movies and now movies like ’Pirates of the Caribbean.’ I think they’re wonderful movie marketers — they’re the best marketers you can find anyhwere. And to combine them with Marvel — the two companies I’m in love with the most."
