Walt Disney CEO and president Robert Iger told CNBC Monday that Disney’s deal to buy Marvel Entertainment for $4 billion in cash and stock was good for both companies.

“Disney’s global reach can enhance what Marvel is already doing,” said Iger. “It was the perfect opportunity for Disney to buy an attractive property. It was a good price for them and us.”Under the deal, Disney will acquire ownership of 5,000 Marvel characters. Many of them, including favorites such as the Fantastic Four and the X-Men, were co-created by the comic book legend Stan Lee.

Disney said Marvel shareholders will receive $30 per share in cash, plus 0.745 Disney shares for every Marvel share they own. That values each Marvel share at $50 based on Friday’s closing stock prices…
