Prior to this, however, some of the environments and dozens of the missions had been completed according to Brian Michael Bendis. In an interview with MTV News, Bendis, a juggernaut in the comic book world, reflects on the project that was never fully realized.
The cancellation of the project that many fans were looking forward to didn’t stop Bendis of realizing success in the world of comics.
“It’s too bad. It’s weird… I always think about that. Even in comics, I always think about all the projects that never got finished or were close to finished, and every once in a while I’m at Marvel and someone shows me some old thing that never saw the light of day by some master artist of the ’70s or ’80s – it’s just crazy.”
Well, if you still need your super hero fix, there’s always DC Universe Online or Champions Online. And as we know, Cryptic Studios is set to release Star Trek Online in February - Check out our exclusive interview with the studio where we ask them about the possibility of them returning in the future to work on a Marvel MMO.
“As much as I’m a fan and want it to happen and would love for it to happen for numerous reasons, there’s something really great about coming up with an idea, going home to do it, and getting it done. Nothing will stand in the way.”
