Official Press Release
Marvel.com is proud to announce the launch of a blog page where fans can read, react, and comment on blogs from Marvel insiders of all sorts.
With recent website additions of the super-popular user-generated Marvel Universe, Digital Comics, and an extensive make-over to make the movie and video game pages more thorough, the new Marvel.com blog page is but another rich source for Marvel content and a forum for fans.
“The blogs offers the fans a window into Marvel, and allows us to use the very same window to listen to our fans,” said John Dokes Vice President of Marketing and Business Development. “The blogs promise to be a lively forum where creators, insiders, and fans, can all rave or rant together about the characters they know and love,” Dokes added.
The first to step up to the blog e-podium are Executive Editor Tom Breevort, VP of Interactive Marketing Ames Kirshen, a super secret surprise special guest, and Marvel’s exemplary X-office.
With editors, creators, and other Marvel insiders chiming in, this new forum will give readers the chance to get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of what to expect out of the House of Ideas. Fans can then join in rooting or roaring on the blogs page, making their voices heard—and in some cases, their questions answered, opinions considered, and ideas developed.
Keep a keen eye out for all sorts of secret nuggets of info in the blogs that will give fans insight to Marvel storylines, movies, TV, video games, and toys.
