Are those the guys that demanded comic shops only sell their comics on it's release day and then send back their stock so anyone who didn't buy it the day one missed out? It made me kinda pissed finding out there's a new David Lapham book out that's next to impossible to find.

Herb Trimpe’s being talked about on Twitter, I knew he was pretty disillusioned with the comics industry at the time, but I had no idea Marvel did him this dirty when they fired him. drat.

May 13: Well, the wait is over. Today it came, via Federal Express. I got fired by mail, effective June 8. No warning, no phone call. The letter was delivered with another package I was expecting from Marvel. You couldn't tell what it was by the envelope. A stealth termination. Opened it up. Bang! Gotcha! Ha! I've been waiting a long time, and still they caught me off guard.

Is Morrison's DC thing complete? I read and really liked Batman Incorporated back in the day, the one issue about the internet notwithstanding, but never got into the rest of the larger saga.

It got knee capped by the mandated company wide event that introduced the New 52, whatever the hell that is.
