I’ve been wanting to keep track of the conspiracy news about Marvel maybe doing away with the X-Men due to the FOX Movie Rights issue.  I’ve been looking for a website that had all of these in one spot but I didn’t see any, so once again – I have to make the Internet have what I’m looking for.

ComicBook.com – Licensing

Bleeding Cool – who will be dominating this post – No X-Men in Marvel Mighty Heroes

Bleeding Cool – Marvel 2015 doesn’t include any X-Men nor Fantastic Four (FOX has their movie rights too)

Bleeding Cool – X-Men and Fantastic Four no longer part of Secret Wars, according to t-shirts

Which does link to the CompleX thread over at Comic Book Resources’ forum, which actually keeps track of all of this.  With a slew of posts in-between the evidence so I guess I’m attempting to have a cleaner version.

Bleeding Cool News – Second Marvel Secret Wars Shirt to remove X-Men and Fantastic Four

Beezzi, a poster of Comic Book Resources, has this awesome document that has essentially what I was attempting to do

But now I’m compiled my own list so I guess I will keep track of what I come across.  Beezzi’s document takes the pressure off.

Even once I post this, I will keep track of stories that are released.  I’m not sure where it ends, as even if the X-Men get 20 titles Post-Secret Wars 2015, people will still not be convinced.  I guess it will end once FOX loses the movie rights but I doubt that will ever happen.  Why would it?

Though why Marvel doesn’t just release merchandise with the comic book versions of the characters – as that is what I want to throw money down for – is beyond me.  I just want to decorate Walker Dennis’ room with X-Men items but Disney / Marvel doesn’t want me to do that.
