Kapow! Marvel makes death-defying leap to mobile

Marvel has hired mobile animation studio Campfire to adapt its comic books for wireless.

It’s using Campfire's CATOOZ system to adapt its content into fully featured mobile entertainment with cinematic sound, effects and animated speech bubbles. The offering will initially be available in Scandinavia, Austria, Switzerland and Germany, and will ultimately be available throughout Europe.
