Is Mark Millar dead?

[joepekula]

Seriously. He got me hooked on Superior and Kick-Ass 2 for a few months and BAM! nothing for the better part of a year! I think it's crazy that I've heard rumors of Superior being made into a movie when there's been such a long delay for issues 5 and 6. Where's Mark at?

Well, he's certainly dead to me. ZING!

I'm sure Mark will decompress his own death for the trades.

He did die, but he figured it wasn't racist enough, so he went back to the drawing board. He also can't die until he gets top dollar for the movie rights.

Yeah, it's kind of ridiculous how he takes so long with this kind of stuff.

I had completely forgotten about Superior until I came across the issues I had when I was organizing and cleaning.

This is the Mark Miller hype machine at work. To me it seems like he's much more interested in getting stuff getting it optioned for a movie rather than actually releasing comics for comics sake.

I know for both Superior and Kick-Ass, he was using Marvel exclusive artists - which means when an assignment pops up, ye olde creator owned stuff gets shunted off for another day.

That said, the dude is terrible at scheduling comics. That's just a fact of life, just like that tv show. Growing Pains.

Man, I hated Mark Millar for every kid who came in wanting Kick-Ass 2 #2 when all we had was #1. Also they put out a 4th printing of Kick-Ass now, what?

Welcome to comics? Mark Millar comics that is.
