Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)
Wouldn't put it past Perlmutter to do this.
Bleeding Cool is postulating that Marvel might cancel 616 and Ultimate Fantastic 4 to pressure Fox to give back the movie rights.
Bleeding Cool's follow-up article is interesting.
And flawed. There's one thing that Rich doesn't mention. The evidence he's run that Marvel has put the kibosh on the Fantastic Four comes from people doing work for licensees. Specifically, trading card licensees. All that truly means is that Marvel doesn't want the Fantastic Four and related characters on trading cards for reasons unknown. You can't get from there to the conclusion that the Fantastic Four are pawns in Marvel's hypothetical war with Fox. Lots of assumptions happening, very little evidence.
I don't see any reason why or how Marvel ceasing to publish Fantastic Four would harm Fox in any way with their films because, statistically speaking, a fraction of one percent of the film's audience will have ever read a Fantastic Four comic.
If Marvel wants or needs a Fantastic Four-like concept in the MCU, perhaps they could buy Doom's IV from Rob Liefeld. I'm not saying that they should, just that the possibility (after the Angela purchase) is there.
