Yes that is correct. I remember reading about 2 earlier attempts to get private financing that went nowhere - possibly because there were few if any money making ventures aside from the Superhero TV series and maybe a few comic alliances that did not lead to much back then. There was Striperella and then lots of noise but no products from deals with Paris Hilton, Hefner, Ringo Starr, etc.

Lots of glamour & glitter but not much revenue.

I agree

Stan Lee is a brilliant creator. The world is aware of that. As a businessman there are gigantic holes in Stan Lee's game. I wish things were different but thats how I see it. He has created great superheroes yet he has failed raise a dollar from investors since 2001. Without that capital injection POWN is handicapped. To Wall Street, without Disney, Stan Lee isnt worth much. $.06 cents per share is where the stock was at or about $6.5 million. Its criminal but thats what happens when you are a bad businessman.

Do you realize that without Disney seeing the opportunity to get a part of Stan Lee for $2.5 million Lee could have gone on to his resting days without POWN ever having a chance of becomming anything? Without Disney's paltry $2.5 million investment the Dec. 31 PR would never have come out, Celadon would have never entered the picture and the $5 million POWN is Desperate to get its hands on to finance development of its characters for movies would not be forthcoming. Disney has Lee over a barrel. Not the other way around, as some suggest. Lee is a fish out of water as a businessman or CEO. He is a brilliant creator. No one on the POWN team is investment savvy and I have met them all in 2007. I hope Celadon is a straight shooter. I never heard of them and penny stock outfits are not exactly choir boys.

In the end I believe Disney buys POWN or I wouldnt be in the stock. If Blaze is less than a blockbuster I think Disney will steal POWN for a lowball amount. If Blaze is a yawner at the box office Lee will have zero leverage. Lee said Blaze is the blockbuster candidate of the three and will be the first release. If Blaze is cold Disney could grab the remainder of POWN for $100-150 million ($1.00-$1.40 per share). If Blaze is a big success POWN could be worth $300 million-%500 million. That equates to $3-5 per share.

You want to determine what kind of businessman Stan Lee is? If we can learn the revenue sharing agreement POWN has with Disney... Those three movie agreements were made with POWN being next to broke and having no way to finance its own character development. I am silently hoping POWN receives 10% of movie revenues but why should Disney pay that when Stan Lee has no leverage to demand it? I'll bet they give POWN/Lee 1-5%. And Lee took it. He does not drive a bargain. He creates superheroes.
