Get ready for a marvel explosion. Cash has always been the crutch of the comics industries, now that money is no longer an issue expect to see a lot from marvel in 2010. There will be a spider man parade. Just please, keep Lucas and Spielberg away from marvel movies.

“This transaction combines Marvel’s strong global brand and world-renowned library of characters including Iron Man, Spider-Man, X-Men, Captain America, Fantastic Four and Thor with Disney’s creative skills, unparalleled global portfolio of entertainment properties, and a business structure that maximizes the value of creative properties across multiple platforms and territories,” said Robert A. Iger, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Walt Disney Company. “Ike Perlmutter and his team have done an impressive job of nurturing these properties and have created significant value. We are pleased to bring this talent and these great assets to Disney.”

“Disney is the perfect home for Marvel’s fantastic library of characters given its proven ability to expand content creation and licensing businesses,” said Ike Perlmutter, Marvel’s Chief Executive Officer. “This is an unparalleled opportunity for Marvel to build upon its vibrant brand and character properties by accessing Disney’s tremendous global organization and infrastructure around the world.”

“Under the deal, Disney will acquire ownership of Marvel including its more than 5,000 Marvel characters. Mr. Perlmutter will oversee the Marvel properties, and will work directly with Disney’s global lines of business to build and further integrate Marvel’s properties.”

WHAT A LAST MESSAGE FROMM ADAM ON HIS TWITTER. RIP

This particular can was designed by French artist KoolFunc’88, a member of the Ultra Boyz crew. The colors combinations are ill, this is a nice contrast to vibrant cans they typically release in their artist series.

Carhartt has a legit site, be sure to check them out.

I have had my eye on this project for a couple weeks and the work continues to stack up. Here are some details on the love letter project.

“Love Letter is literally a love letter painted on the walls facing the Market elevated train. 40 local and international artists will paint the walls in august and the letter will be on view for one and all starting as early as Labor Day.
The project will encompass 50 painted walls between 63rd and 45th street on Market Street, a documentary film with scripted elements, a sign school and shop that will provide training for area youth and free signage for businesses on the market street corridor, and 2 books documenting the project. One of the books will be a small paperback that will be distributed to area businesses free of charge, for them to sell to visitors. The other book will be a larger hardcover book that will document not only the artwork, but the neighborhood and the inspirations of the Love Letter Project.”

Check out the giveaways, the first 80 people get hats and the first 150 people get prints. This was a nice touch for all the supporters.
