megarock58 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 It's better than not having Star Wars comics at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HED Posted January 22, 2014 Author Share Posted January 22, 2014 It's better than not having Star Wars comics at all. I suppose, but those are hardly the only two options they had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexrd Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I suppose, but those are hardly the only two options they had. Why would they pay Dark Horse to publish comics when they have their own publishing house at Marvel? Of course it's sad to see this partnership disappear, but it was only a matter of time ever since Disney's acquisition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the same reason that Disney is outsourcing Star Wars games to EA instead having Disney Interactive Studios do all of them. Unlikely as that would have been, I know. Of course, I agree, this was inevitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not comparable. Disney Interactive Studios is a publisher, not a developer house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordOfTheFish Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 This is quite a bummer. I was never able to get into the original Marvel series even when I could track them down. I was a young child back then, but still, they always felt silly to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HED Posted January 30, 2014 Author Share Posted January 30, 2014 Not comparable. Disney Interactive Studios is a publisher, not a developer house. They essentially are. Disney Interactive Studios currently owns three developers, and at the time of Star Wars' acquisition owned four. Sure, EA owns more, but its essentially the same scenario. Not to mention that a publisher is all Marvel is as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
