I was at WW Philly last weekend and am astounded to report that Marvel was basically a NO SHOW for the event. I am also not that thrilled that I got back home to get a email update from Marvel "filling me in" on WW Philly.Many folks were upset by Marvel's absence from the show. Hopefully Marvel might attend future Wizard shows.
