Good news everyone...

First off, apologies for being absent for such an incredible amount of time, I've been really busy but I promise that the charcters will start up again soon. But that is not why I drew your attention to this otherwise useless post. LEGO has recently signed a contract with DC comics and.... MARVEL! It seems my distant calls into the netherspace of the Internet have been heard, and there is now an official partnership between Marvel and LEGO. Which means if Travellers Tales have got their thinking hats on (which they always do) a LEGO Marvel Videogame might be on the horizon. HOORAY! Score 1 for unnoticed blogs everywhere.

Apologies...

I would just like to apologise for the lack of content uploaded onto this blog recently. My computer crashed and I lost everything. That means I lost all the images I had prepared and was planning on uploading. Therefore I will attempt to get things back on track as soon as possible though I am currently occupied with exams and Empty Biscuits shenanigans. So again I apologise to those who view this blog and those who have followed.

Hello people of the world.
This blog is about LEGO MARVEL: The Videogame, the game doesn't actually exist.... for now at least. BUT, over the next few weeks, I will post character designs and ideas for a Lego Marvel game. Then if enough people follow, maybe this little blog will catch Travellers Tales' eye (the creators and developers of the LEGO games), and give them inspiration to try and create this game.

I have around 80 characters in all, and I will try to post around 3 a week, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
So if you actually read that huge drawl which I just typed, and are interested, follow the blog, and we might just be able to get this up off the ground.

(P.S. If you are an employee at Travellers Tales, I do not intend to claim this idea as my own, as I am aware a LEGO Marvel game came close to development, I am simply trying to vent my ideas and possibly show you that a lot of people are interested in a LEGO Marvel game. I understand it is not as simple as just making the game as it involves lots of complications with licensing and copyrights, but as you are currently working with Disney on LEGO Pirates of the Caribbean, and Disney owns Marvel, well, that's all that needs to be said. Thankyou for your time.)
