Sass Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 Marvel. DC Scroll down for the DC numbers. Very, very, interesting stuff. EDIT: Scroll down further for the Marvel numbers.

Guest PlatinumBoy Posted March 30, 2005 Report Posted March 30, 2005 Here's a question for those in the know. I've looked at Marvel's pay scheme for Epic and stuff, but how much do the tippy top writers for Marvel/DC make? Your Frank Millers, Grant Morrisons, Neil Gaimans and the like. I got into a big argument with a buddy about this, as I said being a Marvel/DC writer is one of my "dream jobs" and he commented that it can't pay well at all. My guess that I told him is that based on the Epic pay scheme, if your a top guy at one of the two companies writing two decently selling titles, your probably making six figures before taxes. Anyone have any clue? Edited to say: More people need to read the Beta Ray Bill comic. Oeming rocks. Also--who thought it was a good idea to make a Jubilee comic?!? Edited a second time: After reading the DC one... Batman has dropped, I thought anything Batman used to be 80,000+. Also, Mad Magazine only sells 2,500 issues a month? That's horrible. Granted it sucks compared to how it was in it's hey day. 50's, 60's Mad was great, but it's a pretty famous humor mag. More people read Bob Barron's SNL Reviews than read Mad it seems.
pochorenella Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 Great read, Sass. Just as well since I use to check Diamondcomics.com for my monthly fix for Comic Book sales charts and I've been unable to make the link work for the past month.
