So you've never had disagreements with other talent to the point of legal action? I find that hard to believe, and yet you take Charcoal, one of the few young black powerhouse characters Marvel has, and a character that Marvel fought to retain the rights to, and banish him to nonexistence for the rest of your tenure at Marvel because of this particular legal challenge? Sounds pretty petty to me, dude...
As I said, you can call it petty if you like. But it had nothing to do with the character being black, or with him being a powerhouse, and everything to do with the fact that I don’t like being held up by people we tried to do a fun thing for. And really, the absence of Charcoal this last decade has barely caused a ripple.
