Disney Goes Indy and the Plight of Indy Comics

[GrnMarvl14]

Article.

This is a really great article talking about the independent comic industry as opposed to the big names like DC and Marvel. It talks about why they aren't as well-received, and why they SHOULD be. It also discusses four new Disney liscences that Slave Labor (comics publisher) has acquired, including Haunted Mansion, Wonderland (as in Alice in), Gargoyles (a continuation of the animated series), and Tron (Disney owns Tron?).

Very interesting stuff. Makes me want to go out and buy a bunch of indy books.

Disney owns Tron?

Yes. Tron was a Disney movie. It's going to be a world in Kingdom Hearts II, in fact.

PLEASE tell me you're kidding about it being in Kingdom Hearts II. I thought Tron had died, but lo and behold...it has risen anew. Simply disturbing.

(I apologize to any Tron fans, I just...get creeped out by the movie)

The Gargoyles and Tron comics peak my interest.

Tron will be in KHII? Nearly worth getting a PS2. And Tron rocked. I wish they would remake it with today's graphic technologies.

Nope, Beast's Castle, Disney Castle, Port Royal (Pirates of the Carribean), Pride Rock (Lion King), Land of Dragons (Mulan), Christmas Town (Nightmare Before Christmas), Timeless River (Steamboat Willy), and Space Paranoids (Tron) are the new worlds of KHII. Tron even joins your party, too. Agrabah, Atlantica, 100 Acre Woods, Halloween Town, Olympus Collesseum, and Hollow Bastion return from the first game.
