Disney Acquires Marvel for $4 Billion

One of the world’s largest entertainment companies is about to get even larger as they purchase Marvel Entertainment, Inc. Last week, it was announced that the Walt Disney Company would be buying the illustrious comic book dynasty for a staggering $4 billion. Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, the X-Men and thousands of other prominent fictional characters will now join forces with Mickey, Goofy, Daffy Duck and the rest of the crazy bunch.
There is really no say on what this could potentially do for both companies and even the consumers. It might even take several years to find out.
