Re: enabling workplace abuse, read to the end for Mikeβs weird fucking response that names the reporter multiple times as if heβs addressing her, specifically:
graphicpolicy.com/2015/10/01/e...
Iβve known a LOT of people who have worked for him or his company over the last 20 years, and theyβve ALL got stories.
I myself have been victim of the trickle-down of his poor leadership that Iβm still trying to financially recover from.
So yeah, end of an era, but also in a good way, probably.
He deserves the accolades heβs earned; his contributions to this industry are numerous.
We all love Hellboy and Sin City, Usagi, maga translationsβ¦
And a lot of privileged people in comics love Mike for what heβs done for them.
But he also deserves the criticismβ¦
I know Richardson was an absolute force in the industry, changing the landscape of comics forever, giving lots of opportunities to amazing indie work.
He also stifled a lot of great projects and creators, enabled workplace abuse, and perpetuated ineptitude all through his company.

Right. And he probably had to at some point to keep the company going, but from everything I know about DH and my own experiences with them, that would largely have been due to his own mismanagement anyway.
