Whoa... sounds like something went off the rails in a big and public way. Kudos to Hickman and Epting for getting through this one! Guess we won't be seeing any work from Marko in comics for awhile.

Although the public airing of grievances is bad form, I am interested in his comments for how they reflect his perception of being a creative professional in the comic industry vs. other media.
I can't speak to the particulars of Marko's case, but, I know way too many talented people that are working in comics and animation for the love of the game and it is always disconcerting to hear about creators who feel like they are sacrificing their time, bodies, and talent without due compensation.
Also, always soul-sucking to get caught in a revision black hole when you feel like those making the decisions don't know what they want.
That's a damn shame. Wasn't very professional about it. And the part about him not liking any of the writers they paired him up with was not very classy.
Sounds like an awesome panel.
