Moore Sues Kirkman Over The Walking Dead
Friday, February 10, 2012 at 6:30AM Well some congrats are in order. It looks like Robert Kirkman has become successful enough to be sued by long time friend Tony Moore. I have to say wow! Back in 2008 Kirkman had a call to arms video for comic creators saying don't work for Marvel, don't work for DC because they'll fuck you. You won't own shit and you'll always struggle to live because your paychecks only come in when you're hot shit. I can't say that he was wrong about all of that, but I can say that success didn't stop him from doing the same.

Moore drew the first six issues of The Walking Dead which is the number one selling volume of the franchise and basically always will be. Now he's suing Kirkman for basically fucking him out of his rights and not giving him any revenue statements showing how much money he's owed. All in all... dirty pool.
I guess it's no surprise that Kirkman's company is named "Skybound", because he's floating above us all... spending money made from ripping off movie ideas. Actually I think it's a jab at Sky High which basically ripped off 5% of the plot for Invincible. Either way you can read the full scoop at the Hollywood Reporter.
