Well here's the real kicker. An icon of the company, creative force behind more in the company than we'll EVER probably know, and that Mr. DeCarlo will ever probably admit to. They canned him simply because they could. When they're done using you they can't lose you fast enough. This isn't a new story by any means.
Creators are constantly spat upon by the corporate and left hung out to dry.
Personally, I ain't going. But I'm gonna start screaming to Archie about it, though, and I implore you folks to do the same. Letters, whatever it takes. IF you're as upset about this as I am, you'll stop being a Pussified Shroom, get off your ass, stand up and start screaming. I'm not gonna tell you how to do it, just that if you're mad enough you'll find a way.
