what the fuck ever... kirby and Ditko are always the go to guys to talk about how evil the comic book industry is, and while a bunch of people in this hellhole get the shaft and it sucks, nobody talks about how unmanageable both kirby and Ditko were in the business sense of the work.
If you want to make the big bucks in the comic business, you also need to know how to make the mother-fucking business, there is a reason on why Stan Lee died a living legend while Ditko and Kirby, while recognized, died in almost poverty conditions (kinda), and that is because Kirby in his older age would burn bridges like a mother fucker and Ditko lost his mind locked in a apartment doing his objectivist comics.
And if Alan Moore now is seen as nothing but a grumpy old fart, that is because Moore went out of his way to act as one whenever someone even got close to the guy with a microphone. yeah, DC screwed you over Moor, that's DC for ya, but no one is asking you to write "watchman babies".
Worse is that Moore did go out and created good stuff after he got fucked by the big two, League and Tom Strong are good shit, and yet, every couple of months we get the "Alan moore bashes modern super-heroes" headline.
Again, it sucks to get the dick like Moore did, but at one point, specially when he went out to be sucessuful and rich like he did, you gotta chill the fuck out.
