"How often do we talk about Utopia these days?" ... there are comic book runs and there are comic book runs. The influential, impactful, fondly remembered ones will always be talked about. I would expect Krakoa to be mentioned often for many, many years to come in the same way that Claremont and Morrison's X-Men runs were (and still are).

How much legal challenge is involved in bringing characters from other media into the comics?

Let's say, an X-writer wants to introduce the Earth-616 version of Eclipse/Marcos Diaz, a mutant created for "The Gifted" tv show (and for the sake of this argument, his inclusion makes sense and works well for the story). Do you have the power to approve that, unilaterally as the X-Editor or together with other editors, or are there lawyers who must pour over the contracts before such an idea can even be discussed?

Would that process be different for Ms. Chen from the Venom movies (made by Sony and thus not under Disney umbrella)?
