Your Marvel Musings Minute
Ive been reading in various places, including our own forums here at SBC, the unbridled speculation on what Marvel has planned for their primary Universe of Operations (616). Ive heard quite a bit myself, from various sources; about what will / wont / might / maybe happen and all that fusion jazz.
Ive heard all sorts of stuff concerning how Marvel goes about planning (or planning to those of you of a cynical persuasion) things. From that they dictate everything to the writers stemming from a mad 20-year business plan sold to them by quasi-aliens that worship deceased science-fiction authors to the dartboard approach (complete with nude clowns and man-killing baby seals).
I discussed this with some insiders recently, and they all seem to be of the same mind; Marvel gets most of its direction from passionate writers and a crop of editors who are really with the program, if you will. The one thing I could ascertain for sure is that everything you see happening in the MU is done out of a deep love and respect for the characters. I realise that some of you are groaning right now, or are hissing curses, but keep in mind that change can be good.
One must keep in mind that most of the writers involved with Marvel (and, as one can assume, DC or any other long-standing company) grew up with these characters and that its only natural that they want to bring those dynamic and much beloved figures back to their roots, back to what made those writers fall in love with them in the first place.
Another thing one must keep in mind is that the regular Marvel 616 Universe will become more like the Ultimate Marvel Universe. No, no, not in the way that probably first springs to the forefront of your brain. What I mean is that Marvel is making a concerted effort to interconnect most of the titles on a regular basis. Look what DC has done with 52 and what they will be doing with the (alleged) upcoming Multiverse weekly. Marvel has been doing it for years with the Ultimate line. Readers dont have to read all the interconnected comics, but it sure doesnt hurt, and more in-depth regular crossover with storylines and such is very much in the cards with Marvel, you just wait and see (heck, youre seeing it now).
Now take that for what you will. What do I think? I can tell you were in for one hell of a ride in the very near future. But you already know that. Ill keep my ear to the ground and my minions well-fed in hopes for any juicy stuff Ill be able to swing your way soon.
