Dark Horse Comics to Publish "The Best Of Magneto" Collection Amid Marvel Licensing Trend

By

Summary

Dark Horse Comics has licensed the rights to publish "The Best Of Magneto," a collection of classic Magneto stories from Marvel Comics. This follows a trend where Marvel licenses out titles they don't have the resources or market interest to publish themselves. The article also ties this to Sir Ian McKellen's return as Magneto, though the content primarily focuses on the publishing deal and the broader trend of Marvel licensing content to other publishers.

But they are happy to take a considerable license fee… and we knew about The Best Of Marvel's Vampire Tales.
