Peter and MJ were married in comics just because they got married in the newspaper.

The Human Torch "retired" from the FF at one point because some dipshit kid caught himself on fire trying to emulate the Torch. Dumbass motherfuckers...

Its guaranteed that if Peter David works on any title including "Hulk" he's gonna get buttfucked in the end by Marvel. She-Hulk 3 times, Hulk 2 times (I think its been 2 times).

Yeah, although I am pretty sure part of his contract for X-Factor now is that there is no interference in his work, ala forcing him to do cross over story lines.

marvel's non smoking policy is a bitch move for a company that dabs into mature titles and has gay couples on some of their teams

Wait, Marvel characters are no longer allowed to smoke? No more Wolvie chomping on cigars, or Gambit smokin' away in some back alley? =o(

It's been very long that way now. It's kinda silly, really. Just like, someone pointed that out to me, the US version of Life on Mars: ashtrays and cigarette butts everywhere, but no one smokes on screen.

I've heard some great gossip over the years. My favourite was the one about how they will only hire attractive women... except for [name of actual Marvel employee].

Not a character but WOW, what a burn.
