At this point what comic publisher can someone actually go, because this whole industry is either entitled or corrupt. Marvel and DC, they’re the big 2 and they don’t do submissions. The next big one is Image Comics, they do have submissions but guess what, they’re submission page is really vague and they don’t even look at submissions because they don’t like the idea of new coming creators. Dark house, in a weird situation might be the best one available but probably is entitled as well. IDW Publishing, really corrupt, don’t pay on time, they take your work if you submit to them. Boom! Studios, Vault Comics. They surprisingly don’t take submissions for no reason. Now Scout Comics, apparently from this video they are a bad organisation. So in general, there’s no publishers that can help you in today’s world. Entitled and corrupt.

(you can absolutely get us on)

Thanks for the Morning Star love! Glad you liked the ending!

My biggest regret with the series (and its embarrassing to admit) is that somehow two very important pages were lost in issue #4. These pages caught our friends up once they reunited & we add layers to what was built earlier. I have no idea what happened to these pages. They were either cut with editorial or I accidentally submitted a curtailed draft. Every other mistake is livable lesson learned and acknowledged not be repeated-- I can live with those. But the mystery with those lost pages, that's a rough one for me. Grateful for you both doing a deep dive on this one! Glad to see this old book is still finding folks! Thank you for this!

That was delightful! Thanks so much.

Yeah, Reed! Thank you for the love of Morning Star!

Sometimes you just need a wierd deer.

That was also one of my favorite Comicon moments. I would have to add the time we met Michael Rooker when he let the cat out of the bag, LOL.

I'm going to be confused about this 'printworks' fake printer plate sales thing for the rest of the day.

I know a lot of creators are naive but I have no idea why anyone would want to work for any publisher in 2024. Especially after seeing the 60-70 year history of Marvel and DC screwing creators over year after year and the smaller publishers following in the big two’s footsteps with the same abuse. The comic book industry was built on taking advantage of creators. Do your research and learn the good side and dark side of the business before making a decision to work for them. Remember companies are here to make money off of you always

The best comics journalism I’ve ever seen. Huge breath of fresh air after “Bleeding Cool” and “The Beat”

Thank you so much for having me on!

Very good video!

Great conversation between you two. Thanks for this video! 💯✨️🌟🏆👍

Every generation needs its Solson. :P

I looked into scout because they adapted the work of an author I liked, but I saw that they were really trying to sell the fantasy of getting a comic turned into a movie through their Hollywood connection. That was a red flag.

Great to see your excitement and enthusiasm for TMNT! 🐢🐢🐢🐢 I really love the positive attitude to the comic books featured! ✨️🌟🏆💯👍

Where is the Savage Dragon episode?

I like some of scout comics but I feel like they take for ever to pull there comics .I try the indes as much as I can.come on man the big two sucks.now the time for indes comics to shine.

SAPOOOO

Big bro SAPO!!!! Honored to be apart of the Bountyland community o7

1:07:17 Yeaaaaa wanted man : )

Very well made video. This is gonna do very well over time.

I suggest a review of the orginal "Walking Dead". Caveat, you both have to read the black and white version!

I don't know what the point of a publisher is if they're not going to market/promote the book or pay you for the book... you're better off publishing it yourself if you have to do everything yourself anyway. Also, I watched the Max Hoven video when all this originally went down, and while I see his point that running a business is hard and not always profitable, I'm sorry, that's not an excuse for running said business this way. Creators are providing product for this business, and to put their payments last is insane. If you ran a restaurant but didn't pay vendors for the food they ordered and justified it by saying "Well, we're a small business and not very profitable, so you have to understand that we can't pay you and bear with us" you would be laughed out of business. Also, the idea that they take any profits they do make and use them to order more stock is EXACTLY how companies maintain claims that books "haven't made a profit yet" and therefore don't owe royalties. It's a scam that movie studios and publishers have used for years

Do it.

9.75 NO! I hate the .25 ratings lol. Its a 10!

I envy Katie being able to read those issues with fresh eyes. They are great to reread but to see them for the first time is wonderful.

Nice job you two, keep it up.

Great video. It would be interesting to see a video on indie publishers as a whole. Unfortunately there are a lot of other publishers this size and smaller that are the same....

THIS is how you do comics journalism. Great job!

Great video guys!

I've read a few of Scout's titles, and before hearing of all this I noticed some odd stuff with the variant covers. It's really unfortunate that those involved got done dirty, whether by accident and on purpose. Even with all the ways of communicate these days the inability for companies to communicate with the people that make the comics is inexcusable. Nice video you too!

Really nice podcast! Glad to hear Layman talking about IHWF! bought the singles and the trade, looking forward to see the second arc coming... it would have been awesome if you could have asked him is there is any chance to see Outer Darkness continued.

Fucking furrys, but yeah Covers like that are awesome

Black in white I just love the style

The Rocketfellers was my favorite of the bunch. What was yours?

Sometimes you need to know Peter first 🥺 don't be too Black Cat about it

Really enjoying had 0 expectation well written to this point 👍

Not gonna lie.... I did not realize these were all holographic... Really thought there was something I was missing

Lol

Give her a dog :)

I fully feel like I've genuinely heard this posed as a joke years ago and I love that it's becoming real. It's all that it deserves and I crave Old Man Logan showing up, baby in tow, attempting to herd the wolverines.

Such a well written book so far

I cannot figure out if the way Jay said "simian" is a pun within an already monkey based word or just ... How he says that

No, you killed him.

Santa Claus is a wild figure in the DC universe

Kite-Man, hell yeah!
