Not Comics: Writer Warns Against Signing Away Rights

Here. I don't understand the world of supported-writing and on-line TV shows that are discussed in the article, but as a longtime observer of comics and a writer who owns almost everything I write these days (such as it is) there are multiple entry points for me and might be for you.

Read your contracts, get a lawyer to read your contracts, get your most skeptical friend that loves you to read your contracts. Run through every scenario. Be careful. And if you're not at the point in your career where this stuff comes up a whole lot, or have another entry point into the discussion entirely, seek out and honor and support avenues for the creation of art that as their primary virtue reward the creator.
