You think Marvel will ever get Rom and the Micronauts back?
I wish Marvel/Disney could make a deal with Hasbro/Paramount/IDW akin to the Spider-Man deal to allow Marvel and IDW to publish the books in 616 and have both Paramount and Marvel handle the movies and Hasbro keeps the toy rights.
Is Paramount going to be allowed to use Rom's Marvel orign and the Dire Wraiths for their announced movie?

No, but then they own all of the characters created for and introduced in the comics and a version of the dire wraiths, same for the micronauts. Hell, Bendis even created a bootleg baron Karza that they can use if the ever want to bring back Arcturus Rann and the microns.
Nope. Best you can hope for is reprints. IDW already reprints Transformers and GI Joe.
>>94670472
Probably not
>>94670819
I think IDW is allowed to do it though. But movie rights might be more strict.
>>94670839
All IDW can use is the name. Their Dire Wraiths had to have new designs and a new origin.
Ditto for Micronauts.
>>94670365
No. We get a Micronauts cartoon next year and TF G1 reboot by BoulderMedia. Both 2D.
>>94670952
Yeah, but it's not Micronauts if it doesn't include Arcturus Rann and Bug.
ROM would have been perfect for the Guardians of the Galaxy movie.
>>94670982
James Gunn loves him too.
>>94670952
Makes me wonder if they're in the same universe.
>>94670982
And Micronauts would have been perfect for Ant-Man 2 to come across Scott and Hope while looking for Janet.

Omg,the animation is poifect. This show must be kino!
>>94671058
I-Is this kino?

>Motion Pictures
Is MLP The Movie part of the HCU?
>>94670523
I don't think that Rom will get reprints anytime soon, he ran into way too many marvel characters.
>>94670839
IDW can create their own dire wraiths, since they've been a part of ROM's backstory since he was just a toy, but galador and marvel's version of dire wraiths are off the table.
>>94671271
Maybe they could work out some deal? Did marvel ever collect there Rom or Micronaut stories into trades?

>First pics of the new Micronauts cartoon
>Nobody on /co/ talks about it
>Only you are excited about this shit
>>94671352
Nope.
>>94671271
>>94671352
They reprinted the issue of Transformers with Spiderman, and another with Nick Fury, so...its a start.
>>94671388
What pics?
>>94671659
Problem there is that most transformers characters are owned by Hasbro marvel heroes guest staring is usually a one off thing, but with ROM, and the micronauts to an extent, the majority of his background characters are completely owned by marvel.
ROM is the only thing in his comic not owned by marvel.
>>94670365
Not unless Disney buys Hasbro.
Nick Roche worked on Marvel's Death's Head book in 2014. Imagine if Marvel let Roche do another IDW/Marvel crossover like New Avengers/Transformers with Death's Head
>>94673904
Me? I'm waiting for Zoids.
>>94673932
Roche needs another mini to work on!!!
Why do they want to keep that copyright so hard anyway? The comic is the only redeemable thing about ROM. The toy it was promoting bombed because well of course it was going to bomb look at this stupid thing. Keeping the character doesn't make them any money and just makes everybody unhappy.

>gay black ROM written by Bendis
No thank you.
