Uh ... is DC-Fraud complaining about Marvel trying to get all their superhero properties back under their control?
Let me know when Marvel tries to buy DC, then you can talk about a monopoly.
It's not Marvels fault that they are wildly successful while their competition is circling the drain like a turd after a Mexican fiesta.
It seems like only yesterday that DC was going to annihilate Marvel, what with their line up of A list superheroes.
Now, Marvel is an empire! ... like Microsoft.

I don't think even Disney wants the DCEU.

Ironic considering DC has a history of obtaining other people's properties...Shazam, V for Vendetta, Doll Man, Wonder Boy, Blackhawk, Red Torpedo, Plastic Man, The Spirit, Blue Beetle, The Question

Ronald Reagan called the Soviet Union the "Evil Empire". In the tech sector, the companies of Silicon Valley (e.g. HP, IBM, Netscape, Oracle, etc.) referred to Microsoft in Redmond, Washington as the "Evil Empire" because Microsoft's goal was to have a monopoly on the tech sector. In the CBM industry, Marvel Studios would be the equivalent "Evil Empire" that's trying to wipe out the DCEU, Fox, and Sony and have a monopoly on CBMs. People are so use to Marvel being sectioned off that they see Marvel being united as having a monopoly. Not Marvel buying Image. Not Marvel buying Valiant. But Marvel getting Marvel characters in one place. Crazy.

Except they're not trying to wipe them out. I've seen many comments from those high up in Marvel Studios who've given praise to some of these other movies like Wonder Woman and Logan. Sony own the rights to Spider-man and they chose to share the rights with Marvel Studios. Disney is buying Fox, a deal so massive that Marvel Studios getting the rights to X-men and Fantastic Four is chump change in the grand scheme of things. Fox already wiped out Fantastic Four itself. The Spider-man movies had been making less and less money with each movie ever since the original movie with the exception of Spider-man 3's worldwide gross. The DCEU is also wiping itself out by making multiple movies that people don't like and announcing movies that people don't want. If anything, they need the other studios to make them better. You get complacent if you are the only one making a type of movie. Even if the other studios make bad movies comparatively, it makes your movies look way better.

I'd advise against it. It's clearly causing brain damage.
