Nice post. I don't come here often any more and only do so once in a great while out of curiosity for a ticker I owned some years ago when the Disney connection was fresh and it seemed like this was really going to the moon. But I just don't see the kind of intelligence and effort to snag real investment backers like GS with the serious purpose of bringing some of the ideas/properties of POW to the little and big screens -- with writers better than Stan Lee.

Don't get me wrong I've been a lifelong comic book fan and Stan Lee, Jack Kirby and others really started an international and wildly profitable business in superheroes. But someone has to take Stan's basic and rough ideas and create many more successful results as apparently "Lucky Man" is. And those results need somehow to translate to greater profit share by POW, and thus the long suffering shareholders.

Some of Stan's ideas have great potential like expanding the world of superheroes to include non-western ones, like from China, India, and Native Americans. But then for various reasons they never get off the ground very well or at all. And some of Stan's ideas are just silly and downright zany.

You need the kind of team that has taken the Marvel universe and created not only stand alone block busters like Iron Man, Captain American, Guardians of the Galaxy, Avengers, and Doctor Strange, but has woven them together into a coherent world leading to the climax of the Infinity War movies (I think that it will be a two-parter) that are being filmed now and may become the biggest, most profitable superhero films ever produced.

Right now POW has "loser" written all over it. You'd have to have real investor relations and hustling for partnerships, imagineers who can take POW as an entertainment business beyond what Stan is capable or even has time for in this stage of his life. I have no doubt he's proud of being of the great pioneers of the American pantheon of heroes and their enduring themes. And that's as it should be. But POW really must hire the right people and make the right partnerships to take the POW and Stan Lee name to new heights to the next generations.
