“One of The Hard Lessons The Comics Industry Has Taught Me is That EVERYONE LIES SOMETIME…”- on Tony Isabella and The Continued Irrational Defense of “Not In The Room”

It seems I have to, unexpectedly, touch upon the words and thought process of outspoken comics veteran Tony Isabella– a figure covered here once before as I examined his selective approach to injustice and how he rationalized which conservative(s) to direct his ire towards. I was slightly reluctant then as I am now to offer […]

“The Rest is Houseroy Being Houseroy, Kirby Tried to Warn All of Us”- On The Self-Destruction of Roy Thomas’s Legacy

Don’t worry, friends- Old Reliable has finally returned. Which in itself is quite a story- one much more interesting than the very topical issue we’re about to cover below- but, due to the pressing need to cut off utterly worthless excuses for sites like Bleeding Cool (ugh) from continuing to mine Four Color Sinners for […]

“That’s The Way It’s Supposed to Be After a Lifetime of Writing”- an Interview with Christine Valada, Defender of Creative Rights & Spouse of Len Wein

Christine Valada was already a fascinating human being even if she’d never been the beloved wife of the late Len Wein– a person of immense strength and wide breadth of talent, genius and skills- so, I almost regret that the main crux of my interview with her consists of the recent credit theft of Roy […]

“This Really Diminishes Him and Makes Him Look Pathethic”- A Look At Industry and Fan’s Opinion On Roy Thomas’s Grand Theft

I know, some of you are thinking “still with the Roy Thomas coverage…? Why, it almost sounds personal at this point!” Allow me to assure you, dear reader, that there is no obsessive interest in the misdeeds of the Rascally One and his vile hangers-on and enablers. It’s simply that Thomas continues his celebration tour […]

“On My Recommendation, I Talked to Stan…” – Continued Dispatches From The Roy Thomas Dishonesty Tour

So much. So much has happened on the ongoing Roy Thomas Lies campaign that I barely know where to begin, o frantic ones. It’s hardly been three months since awareness of the Rascally One’s villainy increased, due to longtime Marvel editor Bobbie Chase post regarding Thomas’s retroactively granted credit as the co-creator of Wolverine. So […]

“Must Be The Only Thing Written About Roy Thomas that Roy Never Read…” – On The Public and Prolific Bitterness of Roy Thomas

It had been brought up more than once, notably by Patrick Ford, how often a certain generation of Marvel employees referred to Jack Kirby in the press as “bitter“- and the irony in that considering that many of the employees guilty of that particular smear were, themselves, quite prolific in public venting, righteous indignation, fragile […]

Conservative Snowflakes & Liberal Know-It-Alls Both Get It Wrong: The REAL Reason For The “Controversial” Silver Surfer Casting

This’ll be a short one friends, as I’ve got all sorts of irons in the proverbial fire with the ongoing (and growing) pushback towards Roy Thomas and John Cimino’s villainy, as well as work on an article which proves conclusively just how fraudulent and inept the collected “comics journalism” community is. In fact, this is […]

“But What I Have, No One Can Buy.”- An Exclusive Interview With Andy Olsen, Creator of The First Wolverine

I believe without doubt that Andy Olsen is the smoking gun. Andy Olsen may not agree with that and certainly doesn’t want me to speak for him. Nevertheless, Olsen is without doubt the undeniable proof that Roy Thomas did not create Wolverine in any significant size, shape, or form. And that’s a lot of pressure, […]

“I Have Been On The Right Side of History Since I Started Working in Comics…” – The Truly Conflicting Conundrum of Tony Isabella

Let me preface this piece by stressing that there is no degree of snark intended when I describe longtime comics pro Tony Isabella as a “conundrum”- he is the first individual written about here that I simply can’t resist having some degree of conflict over- such is my sincere and legit admiration for his burn-the-bridges […]
