There has been a lot of chatter recently about page rates for work-for-hire comic books for writers and artists at Marvel and DC Comics, compared with rates for the past. And how they have not gone up, or even stayed the same, but have been sliding downwards for some time.

So it's time to light the Mark Millar Signal. Mark Millar by Luigi Novi Mark Millar is the writer of Marvel's best-selling graphic novel of all time, Civil War, as well as the co-creator of The Unfunnies, Kick-Ass, Hit Girl, Kingsman, Wanted, Jupiter's Legacy, Chosen, and much much more. Currently, he writes exclusively for Netflix/Image Comics, and has a plan he would like to suggest.

' 'Freelancers, of course, would be delighted as their earning potential would spike overnight and as the companies balance the books again they could start to invest in proper page rate and much-needed new talent. As is, I think the direct market is a couple of years away from complete collapse. American-made comics are 9% of the American market, which is insane. It needs radical surgery to fix it and this would cost nothing.
