Hi Tom, I love the newsletter and I was wondering if you would ever run the editor game like you did on Tumblr ( I think it was Tumblr?) I don’t know if I would be creative enough to participate in it but I thought it was a fascinating business experiment while providing insight into how the comic biz works currently. Keep up the great work!! ~ Sincerely, Mike

A question for you: A writer that you work with and trust comes up to you with a story that involves the death of a major character. Not title-character big, but an impactful character; think an Alicia Masters or a J Jonah Jameson. The story they pitch is brilliant and the death would be worthwhile.

What are the next steps for you as an editor? Are major changes like deaths run up a flagpole? Do you work with the writer to ensure the death has an "out", to bring the character back if needed? What are your considerations?
