Marvel and Disney announced today that they’ll be working together to publish the wildly popular ‘Toy Story’ series in a brand new comic series. With Marvel now part of Disney, this is a great way for Disney to continue telling stories from some of their favorite characters. Here’s hoping that this leads to a relaunch or continuation of the BOOM! Studios Disney Afternoon series featuring ‘Darkwing Duck’, ‘Ducktales’, and ‘Chip and Dale: Rescue Rangers’. All the series just recently wrapped, ending with a crossover between ‘Darkwing Duck’ and ‘Ducktales’ in an arc called ‘Dangerous Currency’. I really like that Marvel and Disney will be working together now to bring us new stories featuring some of the characters. It really shows that Marvel and Disney are working very much in harmony together, and both parties are really benefiting from the merger. Can’t wait to see how the series turns out. Check out the full press release after the jump.
Marvel and Disney Publishing Launch All-New TOY STORY #1 Comic
Buzz Lightyear, Woody, and the rest of the gang lead readers to infinity and beyond as Marvel and Disney Publishing debut TOY STORY #1 (of 4). Featuring Toy Story characters from the Disney-Pixar films, Toy Story #1 delivers entirely new content and stories to comic fans.
“Everyone loves Toy Story, so we’re excited to team with our friends at Disney-Pixar to bring readers all new stories of our favorite characters from these blockbuster films,” said Axel Alonso, Editor in Chief, Marvel Entertainment. “TOY STORY allows us to bring great new material to the market that’s not only perfect for kids, but also a great read for fans of all ages. What’s next for Woody and Buzz in these stories? We can’t wait for you to find out!”
Andy’s new puppy, Buster, loves to play with toys — but if Woody, Buzz and the gang can’t control the playful pooch, all that chewing and shaking will leave them in a world of hurt! Will our heroes make it through in one piece with batteries intact? Find out this March in TOY STORY #1!
