MUTANT X LAWSUIT
Marvel Enterprises issued a release Friday morning, rejecting allegations made by Tribune Entertainment in a lawsuit over the Mutant X television series.
Tribune filed suit against Marvel for at least $100 million. Among the allegations were that Marvel made statements that were "fradulent and negligent," misrepresented its rights that led to a lawusit with 20 Century Fox over conflict with X-Men rights and that Mutant X's success was hampered because storylines had to be distanced from X-Men.
Marvel statement's said:
"In response to a lawsuit filed in New York State Supreme Court by Tribune Entertainment Company, a subsidiary of the Tribune Co., Marvel Enterprises, Inc. stated that Tribune's claims are without merit and that Marvel looks forward to vigorously defending the action. Marvel is reviewing a range of possible legal actions in addition to its active defense. Marvel does not intend to make any further public comment on the litigation at this time."
