Damn you, Marvel!! Damn you to hell!!

From scarcrest comes the disturbing news that Ed Brubaker is signing an exclusive contract with Marvel.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Marvel's already snatched away Michael Lark, and now Brubaker? What the hell? Do they have it in for Gotham Central, The Greatest Comic on the Market Except for Possibly Fables (and Barry Ween if Judd Ever Gets Around to it), or something? Is there even any Marvel stuff suited to Brubaker's style? Please don't tell me they're going to have him writing Ultimately Astonishingly Sell-Out X-Men or some such shit. Frankly, I'm relieved I haven't been reading any Marvel lately (aside from the very occasional She-Hulk or Supreme Power) because I don't want my money going to fund this murder.

I shall be forced to console myself with the knowledge, courtesy of ardentdelerium, that Superman Is a Dick. (Just trust me. Click that link.)

Alias is the only thing that exists currently in the Marvel U. that would not be a waste of his talents. If Bendis continues on X-men. Of course he could be coming on to ass rape Chuck Austen, or buy Cleremont a ticket to at least 1991. I was excited about exclusivedeals at first, but now... I guess if your editorial staff is a bunch of pussies that can't stand up to the shareholders, then you'll never have more than a few titles/characters here & there that are worth a damn. Still stealing from a competing pimps stable ain't no good if you can't take care of your own stock.
