... Some animals are more equal than others?

> ( As as for the Levitz/Authority mention; apples and oranges. The JMS/Quesada thing is about the attempt to give a franchise character who appears on all kinds of merchandise a wider-ranging appeal. Whereas the Levitz/Authority thing was about censoring a self-contained and highly acclaimed title. )

I call bullshit, because both titles were being written by "creators" who didn't actually create the characters in question, and I'm sorry, The Authority was a "franchise" from the word go, by virtue of all the characters being "owned" by the company that published them, and it became even moreso as soon as the title passed hands to a second writer, because that's practically the dictionary definition of a "franchise." With that distinction proven false, you're veering dangerously close to the territory of, "Only the writers I like should be free of editorial restrictions."
