Summary
Technology and comic books go hand in hand. The imagination that brought forth comic books, is directly translatable into the video realm. Instead of having to imagine that they can fly, in a video environment, anyting is possible. This is highly addictive and I know this first hand. I cannot think that this will be anything but positive. Here is an example. While young, I flew gliders. I always dreamed of flying fighter aircraft. It was never going to happen. When Jane's brought out their USAF, I immediately went and purchased the yoke and rudder pedals to fly an F22. I spent hundreds of dollars to feed my fantasy. Now, Marvel has made the greatest decision of their corporate lives. Hundreds of thousands of gamers will eat this up.
Analysis
I am a gamer. I am also seasoned enough to remember comic books. The combination of online gaming and comic book heros is a very healthy, and potentially lucrative, addiction.
