I was listening a video from Ya Boi Zack the other day and he made a great point about why the big two allow their creators to attack fans and indie companies. So I wrote a article about it for the Bleeding Fool. And I think it’s making some folks upset. Thought I’d post it here to share with everyone.
Why Marvel & DC Allow Creators to Proxy Attack Successful Indie Publishers
Good article. Worth clicking on and reading thru.
Take home lesson for those in comics is that they should be listening to Zack, Ethan and Rippa made a rant video the other day about it.
“Ideology over Success.”
Useful idiots, deceived into bashing the very sources of higher pay.
The business and selling end of it really is the hardest part. Look at what happened to Chuck Dixon, cheated out of some international revenue. No matter how much they bash Ethan and Rippa, in the end, all that matters is sales and business. When you see those warehouses that they have, that is real. It’s another thing that creators should look to Chuck for, since he was cheated before and yet, now, he’s working with Rippa. Clearly, he knows how to work with people or how to keep his options open.
Thanks.
Yeah, it amazes me how much these ideologues want to burn down everything in detriment to themselves just to “own the right”. We really are living in the Atlas Shrugged age where looters doing everything they can to destroy creators and innovators.
These indie companies are real and only going to get stronger while their precious big two will eventually out-source their jobs to pop up companies that use their characters as licenses.
