JK Rowling and Tolkien's family, probably. They can't just start making them willy-nilly, you know.

Shadow of Mordor got greenlit somehow.

The Marvel way...
>Abuse buzzwords like diversity
>Have some hack like Bendis run most of the line
>Use stupid gimmicks to drive up interest, cancel the series when they stop being profitable, continue with the next gimmick
>Reboot and relaunch comics every 6 months
>EVERYTHING IS BASED ON THE MOVIES
>Characters make references to the movies
>Make reference to reddit memes, and pop culture CONSTANTLY
>Pay comics sites to run articles that shit on the competition
>pay websites to advertise your "Brave and New" Preggo Teen Gwen Stacey Spider-Woman on going
>Let talent gradually bleed out form your company, then use that money in advertising
