A very thoughtful piece about the state of Artist Alley by the @comicsbeat and @Comixace. Thank you for referencing Lifeline Comics! comicsbeat.com/is-artist-all…

Marvel Comics is getting out of the digital comics business, instead opting for a sports entertainment approach of licensing it out for guaranteed money. It's a common media strategy that has been uncommon in comics (until now). (1/?)

What you're seeing right now in the journo community re: embargoes is the subtle divide between those that want to stay on a studio's good side for future benefit, & those who are more about journalism being independent (even with rewards & consequences). (Photo by Karen Zhao)
