Mark Millar Leaves Marvel


So, it seems that Mark Millar is leaving Marvel to make sure that his comic empire is successful. Can you blame the guy? Kick-ass & Nemesis has proved how popular the guy can be, so why not? He's a great writer, and I'm excited to see what Millarworld can provide for the comic community. But in his own words?

Well, I just finished the dialogue on my last ever script for Marvel. It was a lot of fun, but I'm full-time on Millarworld as of today.Huge thanks to all the guys I worked with on Ultimates 1&2, Civil War, Old Man Logan, Enemy of the State, Ultimate X-Men, 1985, etc, etc. It's been an amazing experience and I'm stealing all the best ones to work with my on creator-owned anyway :) In the next 12 months: Kick-Ass 2, Nemesis 2, Supercrooks, Superior, the Dave Gibbons project, the Frank Quitely project and HIT-GIRL!! I'm going to miss the lads, the best editorial team in the biz, but there comes a time when every boy needs to start his OWN media empire!!

It's true, it's what Awesome-Robo was founded on. We shall see what shall become of this empire, but after Kapow! I only wish him well. He is such a nice guy and he truly deserves success.
