Mark Millar Proposes Revolutionary Changes to Save Mainstream Comics: An Interview with ShortList, YouTube

Comic book industry veteran Mark Millar has been making waves with his recent interviews, where he has been vocal about the struggles faced by mainstream comics. In a recent interview with ShortList and on YouTube, Millar highlighted the declining state of the industry, with retail shops closing and creators being paid significantly less than they were in the past.

Millar proposed a revolutionary idea to help save the industry – a 50-50 split on all sales over a certain threshold, instead of the current 2% royalty system. This would incentivize creators to produce their best work and potentially bring in more commercial freelancers. The best part? It would cost the companies nothing upfront.

With the comic market on the brink of collapse, Millar’s suggestions could be the lifeline that Marvel and DC need to revive the industry. He even tagged Marvel’s Editor-in-chief and DC’s Chief creative officer, urging them to consider his proposal.

As fans continue to see beloved characters suffer from poor storytelling, Millar’s ideas could be the key to saving the industry from complete collapse. With the potential for a talent migration like never before, the question remains – who will take the first step, Marvel or DC?

In a world where comic book sales are dwindling, Mark Millar’s innovative ideas could be the spark that reignites the industry and brings fans back to the comic shops.
