Thanks for the update Steve. I wonder how the merchandise is selling.

This isn't right. Why is this at Epcot? I get it, but I also don't.

Because Disney owns Marvel and Disney owns Epcot. They want to sell merchandise from a property they own in a park they own.

That part I get. Disney has a vested interest in a full-spectrum of good and not so good things. Where does the line get drawn between what Epcot is about and its merchandise vs Islands of Adventure and its merchandise? I wonder if it will get a bit blurred at some point with all the shoehorning. Bu$iness is business but it just seems a bit crass.<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->

The merch they sell in WDW is different than Islands. IMO it's better.

From the look of things, it looks like all of the Marvel merchandise so far has been merchandise that you could also buy outside of WDW (so no Disney World-specific Marvel stuff).
