Marvel Vote Of Confidence To Reed?

A few of you have e-mailed me these
two tweets from Marvel's CB Cebulski -- if someone had made a post similar to this one about them first, I apologize -- suggesting they constitute a vote in support of the Reed Exhibition shows mentioned (C2E2 in Chicago; NYCC in NYC) over the Gareb Shamus shows mentioned (Big Apple Con, Anaheim Con). I'd say it's exactly that except there's no immediacy to this statement -- Marvel's has seemingly always enjoyed a good relationship with Reed and has in recent times been clear and open about having no relationship with Shamus' shows. Even the backhanded suggestion that Marvel might be involved somehow is noteworthy, though, as a lot of what's to come in the next 24 months convention-wise is going to be about public perception and institutional support, claims of how certain shows are conceived and claims to the contrary over those conceptions, flashes of PR that are sure to fly around especially as the Shamus shows gear up.
