Leider Pat Lee an den Pencils, das wird wieder mangamäßig, wie bei einigen Spidey - The Other Heften oder dem für mich grauenhaften "F.F. - X-Men".

Markus hat hier einiges zum Thema Marvel Civil War gefunden:

> Hallo,
>
> Zum Thema Verspätung von CW habe ich folgenden Kommentar des
> Schreibers und des Zeichners gefunden:
>
> "Update 08.16.06 8:25am - When contacted for comment by Newsarama,
> writer Mark Millar said: "All I can say is that I'm as surprised by
> all this as you are. In fact, I only found out about it when I got up
> this morning and read my email. But you know what? This is a very cool
> thing for Marvel do to because it would have been so much easier to
> just go for a cheap fill-in artist instead of pushing back the books.
> Steve had virtually no lead-time on Civil War and a title with a
> million characters has proven much tougher than he expected. He and I
> both assumed a fill-in would be on the cards at some point, but Marvel
> credit Steve with a huge amount of our book's success and, as a
> creator, I'm genuinely stunned they spread the project out by another
> seven weeks to make it work for him. Marvel really took a bullet here.
> This pushes a lot of cash into the next financial quarter for them and
> they've really put product over profit here. I absolutely never
> expected them to work their entire publishing schedule around an art
> delay, but it's cool that they did and I totally take my hat off to
> them. Sure, it's horrible when a book we want is a little late, but I
> can live with a few weeks if it means getting Steve McNiven every
> issue. Apologies to readers and thanks to many people who were worried
> this meant I'd got sick again (I'm doing absolutely fine, thanks).
> This has been the biggest book of the millennium so far and it's clear
> people are passionate about waiting. But, honestly, it'll be worth it
> for seven issues of pure McNiven."
>
> ---
>
> "Hey folks, just thought I should get a post up here. First up
> apologies to the fans and retailers of civil war. The responsibility
> for the art delays lies with me, period. I've been working harder than
> I ever have, (and this is my third profession), but this is the
> hardest project I've ever done and as Mark said, I had little lead
> time. It was as big a surprise to me as anyone else that Marvel
> changed its publishing schedule to allow Mark and I to finish the
> series together.
>
> When I was sent word of this yesterday, I realized the problems that
> this will cause for readers and retailers immediately. After reading
> Hitchy's post I am beginning to understand why Marvel went this way,
> but it still amazes me. Of course I am proud of the work I have done
> on Civil War and I am chuffed that Marvel feels the same way, but I
> worry for the people that could be negatively affected by this. Please
> realize that the art delays were never meant in a malicious way nor am
> I being a prima donna with my work. What I'm trying is to do service

> that I focus on when I'm at the table. I let Marvel know exactly where
> I am on a daily basis, from day one, so that they can make the
> decisions like the one they have made. I'll continue to work hard to

> Thanks,

> Dann noch was von Bryan Hitch:

> Two of my favourite re-reads in collections are Dark Knight and

> These days we have the benefit of hindsight and there are precedents.
> You can't set out to create a classic or a series with longevity but

>
> Mark isn't exaggerating when he talks of how quickly this thing was

Viel Blabla von wegen künstlerischer Integrität um zu vertuschen, daß sie nicht fähig sind, Sachen erst anzukündigen und herauszugeben, wenn mindestens 75 % gezeichnet und getextet vorliegen.
