    Do you think that the Marvel Cinematic Universe has affected the story lines in some of the comics?

    I personally think that there are some positive and negative aspects to this. For the positive aspect, I think that it did a brilliant job in bring unknown characters (like Guardians of the Galaxy) to the big screen and making them more well known with the public (the same with Iron Man in a way). A negative aspect would be the constant switching of teammates in some of the titles in order to fit in with the movie universe, especially if you had grown attached to the past group.

    Some of the changes to certain characters due to the success of the movies have been good. Redesigns of characters like Captain America and Hawkeye are good examples, at least appearance wise.

    Most certainly, the X-men and Fantastic 4 are being marginalized within the comic book setting because Marvel makes less money from those characters because they don't hold full rights.

    Character wise, yes, for example Phil Coulson is now in the comics...
