whoooooa.  NOT okay.If my only contribution to a comic book was that I wrote the thing I would be beyond mortified to see something like this.  Artist’s should consider this type of thing when they are thinking about drawing someone else’s story.  In today’s comic climate you’re about two years from not even having your name anywhere on the work.  Why would any artist want to work with a writer in this kind of environment?  What exactly are you gaining?  Page rate at best—but considering no one is going to know your name—or care about your work—that’s probably not the best long term strategy, since you’re basically some nameless droog that can easily be interchanged with some other nameless droog for pennies on the dollar.I like Avatar.  But this?  This is fucked up.And don’t tell me some sob story about book design and what sells or doesn’t sell.  I’ve seen dynamic comic covers that have not just the writer and artist name’s on it—but also the colorist and letterer.  Pfft.  I dunno, this is exactly the kind of thing I worry about whenever one of my artist friends is working with a writer on a book.

The Rigged Books Indiegogo for Mia Schwartz & Ben Urkowitz’s comics has been funded and has just about a day left!! Honestly these are fantastic looking comics from fantastic cartoonists & you haven’t got much time left to grab them for yourself!

Also let’s see if we can make at least the first stretch goal ($4,000) by the end of the night!
