100% Comics Stands with CBWU
Today the workers of the Image Comics announced that they are forming a union. This group, called the Comic Book Workers United (CBWU), is forming to help pursue workers rights in the comic book industry.
As stated on their website:
"We love what we do. But loving what you do doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't ask for improvements to your working conditions. It is with this in mind and with great hope for the future of Image Comics and the comic book industry itself that we announce our intent to form a union and request voluntary recognition. This should not be radical or revolutionary, and is, in fact, a natural development for a company that started the way Image Comics did. "
As the founder and publisher of 100% Comics I am here today to say that we as an organization stand with the workers of Image and the CBWU and hope to see their mission through. It takes courage to force change and I applaud the teams behind this effort.
