Marvel teams up with Cryptic to make a Marvel Universe massively-multiplayer game.
Next interesting question: just reskin City of Heroes/Villains with Marvel Universe content? Design a whole new game? Just make it another major expansion? (City of Heroes/Villains/Marvel Characters)?
I dibs Galactus!
I have little doubt that they'd make a crapload of money by just re-skinning, so it's a tough call.
Dibs on The Living Tribunal!

Having said that, were I Marvel, I wouldn't permit a simple re-skinning. Cheapens the brand.
