Marvel would have gone into the dustbin of history by now without those successful movies, they literally banked everything on the films

Trademarks and eternal copyrights have saved Big Media from biting the dust. Crapital Records, RCA, Columbia, MGM, Warner Brothers, Disney, ALL OF THE GIANTS would be dead now if they had to ONLY survive on their current product.

They have a monopoly position trafficking in works they had ZERO part in and the creators like Jack Kirby and Steve Ditko (who still lives) got “Jack” sh!t. So much for “extend the copyright so the creators get paid”.

A culture of corruption. They bought the legislation they sought.

Netflix is going to be offering 4 new Marvel character streaming content series this coming year.

Luke Cage & Power Man are among them. Lessee blacksploitation meets kungfu chopsocky. About 35 years too late to be relevant.

What next? Disco Dazzler?

She looks like Orion.

I remember the old Spiderman/Captain America live action shows, I think from the early 80’s. They were really really bad in a bad campy way.

American tv had nothing on Turkish Spider-Man meeting Turkish Capt. America.

Saddam Hussein supposedly made a Turkish prison bathhouse film around 1968. You can find references still online to it but none of the supposed images or frame composites.
