Good morning, my friend,
If you haven’t paid attention to comic news and culture this week, I envy your peace of mind. For everyone else, a tiny video snippet on a small Twitter account ignited a firestorm of controversy about the crippled relationship between the Direct Market (comic shops) and the quality of output from Comic Publishers.
Needless to say, everyone has strong opinions on the topic, both for and against Glenn O’Leary’s brief rant.
Today’s Op-Ed looks at the situation from a different angle to understand the common perception from the creators’ side of the argument - Fans Hate Change.
Give it a read!
What do you think? Are fans too stubborn to know when they get a good thing? Or are creators too careless with what they’ve been given?
Leave a comment down below with your thoughts.
