Go, Read: Abraham Riesman On Jim Starlin's Cyclical Relationship With Marvel Comics
Here. It is worth being reminded that many creators' complaints about the big companies aren't moral/ethical battles but concern issues of treatment and recompense.
I would assume that Starlin's deal with Marvel has something to do with show Thanos pre-existed the work in that issue of Iron Man, but I'm no lawyer.
