Somebody's going to get their rears sued...
I just figured this out on my own, think I'd get an article posted if I submitted to Slashdot?
Changed the title, I hate Leet speak.

They want to get sued, perhaps? Why else do you leave your online names and email address?
Betcha ten bucks the next issue of Spider-Man will involve Peter Parker beating the crap out of a bunch of hackers.

If they were clever, they'd make sure there was nothing connecting the aliases they used there to their real-life identities.

Perhaps they're actually setting another group up.

That's...absolutely brilliant!
I should do that, I have plenty of people I'd like to see get sued by a big company like Marvel!

No, it's not, and no, you shouldn't. Make no mistake, while it is relatively easy to hide on the net, if someone has sufficient motivation, it doesn't matter how well you hide, you can be found. On top of that, you'd really want to add another frivilous lawsuit to the who knows how many thousands of ones already out there?
These limp-dicked jackasses should be brought to some form of justice. This sort of shit is just more proof that because the legal system is so far behind the times that any jackass with a net connection and grudge can do pretty much anything he wants without fear of serious (if any) retribution.
You think for a moment that if someone defaced Marvel HQ like this in the real world, they'd be able to get away with it, much less even try it?

I'm joking of course. There is no reason to deface a website (with the exceptions of SCO and Microsoft.com) other than to be a jerk and risk a lawsuit.

Is Marvel planning on fixing it or are they just going to leave it like that?

I'm starting to wonder, too. Looks like they already moved Ultimate Spider-Man 1-3 and a lot of other dotcomics to marvel.com/dotcomics...
Seems stupid to pay to keep the server running if it has no purpose but to say "Ha ha we hacked you!".
The new server is WAY slower though, and they're lost a few dotcomics that used to be there like the Venom one.
Now look what you did, you stupid hackers...

Seeing it happened over Labor Day weekend, their response time in getting it fixed may be a bit slow.

Well, they've taken the time to copy the essentials to their main server by the looks of it. Someone just has to ssh in and shut it down. Hell, I could do it from here if I knew the root password.

If you do a google search for
Marvel comics the first site in the list is
http://www.marvel.com/ and under that search
http://dotcomics.marvel.com/ doesn't appear in at least the first 10 pages. Are you quite certain that the site you linked to actually belongs to Marvel?

Yes, anything that's *.marvel.com falls under Marvel's domain.

They have a very nice logo, if nothing else.
