Marvel Registers Trademark For 'Marvel HQ' For Education And Entertainment
Marvel Comics has just registered a trademark for the term "Marvel HQ" for "education and entertainment services".
Often used colloquially as the place where Marvel decisions are made, which is far more pleasant than picturing the shitstorm of emails and phone calls back and forth to Disney between Marvel Studios who make the films and the rest of Marvel and Marvel Studios who make everything else, the swipes between the comics against the TV studios and vice versa, and the screaming number crunchers who keep trying to game the system as it slowly slips out of their fingers.
So Marvel HQ it is. Entertainment is a given, but education? What will little Timmy be learning?
His Venom numbers, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 150, 151?
Or his Doctor Strange numbers when 21 comes before 20?
Or learning what happens when you take away the Fantastic Four from…everything else?
Marvel HQ. We'll keep saying it until it makes sense.
