The Aftershock of Dealing With AfterShock Comics - Zac Thompson & John Layman aftershock
and what had seemed an inability to pay their freelance comic book creators what was due to them. AfterShock Comics issued us the statement"Thank you for reaching out. For easy reference, here is our statement on the matter, the company is addressing late payments as outstanding funds owed to the company come in. There are no non-payments. Everyone who is owed money will be paid. We recognize our obligations and consider creator compensation our number one priority.
tweeted about"when my Publisher took an entire 90K option deal for themselves and refused to share any of that money with the creative team. We had to fight for 2 years to even see the paperwork and at that point the money was long gone." He then chose to name names."F-ck it. This was Aftershock. How they managed to declare bankruptcy while also robbing creators blind is sincerely beyond me. The contract language they used to do this was carefully hidden in the fine print. They charge"overhead" fees to creative teams that are insanely high #'s that ensure books NEVER break even. They are under no obligation to be transparent about these overhead fees.
Aftershock Comics have announced a number of options for TV series and films. We would be interested in speaking to creators who have received any of that option money. Jon Layman tells me"When I did Man Who F#%*ed Up Time, I found out after the fact they deducted $7,000 per issue as infrastructure cost. They've since raised it to 10k per issue. nobody will ever see a dime."
I understand that Aftershock has sent letters out to current working creators telling them that their payments are going to be late… Does anyone else have similar – or opposite – tales to share?
