@MJ Styles: You should totally report back to us how it is. Take some photos or something.  I'm curious what the turnout will be like.

If I dress up as a Marvel character...and I end up in a Marvel comic...can I be killed off just to be brought back to life numerous time for meaningless purposes?  THAT would be awesome! 
 
Also...what is that blue thing standing in the flyer for that?  Is that Beast?  I do NOT approve!

Ehh, the voice acting I heard in a preview of this comic seemed super weak.  Plus I am not a huge fan of adding movements to existing comic panels.  Why not just waste the energy on something like a OAV (Original Video Animation) that is accurate to the comic.  
 
I don't me to be so super critical, but after reading through something like the Metal Gear Solid Digital Graphic novel, Marvel's stuff hardly holds a candle.
