This debate tears my heart to pieces. Each side is loaded with incredible content and characters. Billions of dollars have flown out of American hands in support of their toys‚ comic books‚ movies and cartoons. Still‚ it is a question that must be answered.

Whenever an ideal hero comes to mind‚ people tend to think more along the lines of superheros. Superman‚ Captain America‚ and Wonder Woman all have one thing in common‚ unrealistic powers that they use for good. When a picture of a “hero” is searched‚ images of men flying with capes will be the number one result. So that must be all there is to being a hero.

Marvel Enterprises‚ Inc. (b) Why was Marvel’s turnaround so successful? Would you characterize that success as a fluke? Or do you view it as sustainable? Why? How? Marvel’s success is definitely not a fluke and its business model is very sustainable.
