The problem with doing a series between Marvel and DDP is that you run into the "Star Wars Trap". Take Clone Wars, we know how it's going to end. Sure you can tell some interesting and decent stories, but we know the conclusion of it all. Whenever we see Anakin and Obi Wan in peril we know they live. We know that Greivous will always escape because he doesn't die until the movie. And we know that at some point Ashoka has to die. We know the ending so no matter how good the stories, we know where it's all headed.
For a Joe series between Marvel and DDP we'd know that at some point in that 7 year span, Joe is shut down again and Duke joins the CIA, Kamakura becomes a Operator and works for Hammer Team (think that's what it was called) running ops for Duke and Chuckles and that SE gets an apprentice named Orphelia that gets killed.
So we know where it would end up.
Thats limiting story telling because it forces the writer to make sure everything ends up in a certain direction.
