Marvelous

Or so says the Disney Channel's Top Dog:

... Two months ago, we launched Marvel Universe on Disney XD, which became the exclusive home for new Marvel television content. We've developed Ultimate Spider-Man. Subsequent to the success of the Avengers movie, we've been developing a new Avengers Assemble. We're talking about a Hulk series and an Iron Man series, too. ...

Actually Diz Co. is doing more than talking about Hulk animated episodics. Marvel is producing one, even as we speak.

And Marvel Animation will be doing other series, using a model (we're told) where the in-house staff is small and the outside staff is bigger.

There will be lots of Marvel animation in our futures, because when the super hero catalogue is as successful as the comic book universe now is, no conglomerate worth its salt can resist exploiting it to the max. Which means lots of animated (and live-action) iterations.
