re: Robert Kirkman's Secret History of Comics

I haven't watched it, but I really want to. There's a tendency among the comics community to demonize Stan and canonize Jack, and I get that impulse, but it's not really the truth. Stan should have treated Jack as more than just a regular creator, but that is the terms of the deal everyone worked under. Even Stan. And Jack really was a miserable so-and-so and generally hard to work with. He deserved more than he got, but he also made things worse for himself with his own conduct, making a reconciliation impossible.
