Along with the Chronicle story, today's WSJ also reports Marvel Entertainment, publisher of comic books, saw its net more than double over last year's income.
Does anyone see the obvious solution here ?

You think the Chron should make movies?? “Pulled from the headlines films?”

Marvel (or was it DC?) took out a billion dollar loan to make films. They bet the company on those films! They were Spiderman, X-Men and Fantastic Four.

I think they won their bet. They had mortgaged the whole company and if they had flopped it’d been history

They should start making big-budget movies about the Chronicle? I don't think that'll work.
