Assistant Editor opening at Marvel

[Whip]

Holy crap.

Spidey's qualified for this. He's got his Masters in Education and a BA in English...and he lives to write. *forwards to e-mail*

"Gaspar:

Thank you for submitting your resume. We're sorry, but due to your high volume (more than 1) of DC Comics purchases this year, you are no longer qualified. And to think, we were going to pay for you $60k/year as well as moving expenses, personal phone, 401k, insurance, and unlimited free Marvel Comics.

Thank you for your interest, but no thanks.
Marvel"

Wow! They're pretty damn strict! The only one I can remember buying regularly right off the top of my head is Y, and that's Vertigo so it doesn't technically count does it? I did buy the first issue of 52 to see what the fuss was about, but I didn't like it...and I threw it away right after!

Damn...

So I need a B.A. to get the gig?



Check!

I'm pretty sure this was posted a few weeks ago, shortly after the Andy Schmidt announcement was made. I checked with a Marvel contact at WW Philly, and he said they were down to the last two candidates.

Nevertheless, I just applied for the second time. One can never be too sure.
