Before I get to far into my post. I like to say that I delayed this post just to get a bigger picture of this lawsuit that I got wind of this week. I was going to do it yesterday, but I think it was a good idea to do for a few reasons.
Now with that said. I was a surprised that we word that Mark Waid is being sued for his actions that he took on Richard Meyer back in May. This news was delayed that a lawsuit was filed for some reason that I don't understand, but don't care for the real reason.
The thing that I was hearing the most about the lawsuit that Mark has been charged with is Tortious Interference with contract, defamation, & exemplary damages. Now I'm know that some of things that he has been charged with. This starts to show that Mark never really don't care about the fact that he hurt a person that was challenged to make a comic book by his own words & seen it as threat. Then had to destroy it, because it was going to be way better then what Mark was putting out.
Do I really feel sad that a person that was a big platform in the comic book industry for a long time. I just can't seem to understand that what that if Mark would ever tell some body to make a comic that they like to read & sell to people to read it. Then try to stop it do it fear of it being better then our work.
I just don't see the real reason that Mark will try to stop a comic that looks very well done & I was going to buy in to see how good it was going to be. This may not ever be answered, but I hope that this just a bad misunderstanding & we all can move along
Now I do think that Mark may not got off on some of the charges like the defamation & maybe the exemplary damages are going to be hard to prove that Meyer is anything that Mark had claim. I will love to see the out come of this case that we all need to see.
