It’s a good time to be an X-Men fan right now. We have a hit cartoon that is so beloved by everyone that it’s the focal point in discussions about weekly release schedules. The upcoming Deadpool and Wolverine film has no one talking about the Superhero film Fatigue. And the Fall of Krakoa storyline is front and center for many of the arcs across nearly all of Marvel’s current titles.

We’re only now seeing all these great X-Men projects and the announcement of a new Fantastic Four film because, if you really look at it, the shadow ban was only really lifted just last year. The effects of that point in time when the comic book market leader would rather rip out its largest cornerstones than just acknowledge them, is well known among comic fans.

But looking at the full extent and all the details of this X-Men/ Fantastic Four squash – now with the benefit of hindsight - really does make all of this seem like the worst business decision for the pettiest of reasons. Let’s get into it.
