I'm not sure how many people know of this yet.....but there is a MAJOR plagiarization incident going on involving a certain comic here in the US.
The comic series "Incarnate" by Nick Simmons (Gene Simmon's son) is published by "Radical Comics". It has been discovered that, from what I've seen, nearly everything in it is taken from other series. Bleach was apparently used a lot.
There are articles now available showing actual side by side pictures of some of these. The images are almost EXACTLY identical. This has apparently been known somewhat for awhile with no action taken by Radical.
But it looks like now enough people have banded together to bitch about it that Radical comics is FINALLY taking this seriously. They are officially halting publishing until it's resolved. They are also trying to contact the other publishers of the series the material has been taken from (stolen is a better term).
I hope Radical Comics truly understands what their lack of action until now will cause them. People will lose trust in them.
Also they can face serious charges and such (especially since they have been told about this before but simply blew it off).
Seems to me this series, "Incarnate", isn't likely to stay around. After this crap, I don't think ANY company would be stupid enough to actually support it. And there was so little ORIGINAL stuff in it that you can't really make anything out of it.
I have one thing left to say about this.
NICK SIMMONS.....YOU SUCK YOU JACKASS
Oh and here's one of the articles.
