BKV ON THE WRITER'S STRIKE (http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=135331)
If you've been watching the news, you know that the members of the Writer's Guild of America have gone on strike, refusing to work under the conditions such as they stand. What does this mean? Newsarama was in the process of putting together an article about the strike, and its effects on comics, and saw that at his website, writer Brian K Vaughan has broken down the Writer's Strike in pretty plain English with a few comments specific to him and a class of other writers - that is, will we be seeing more Hollywood writers be coming into comics, and more importantly, will we be seeing more work in comics from Brian during the strike itself?
We present Vaughan's post in its entirety.

***Why is the WGA striking?
Because writers believe we deserve a fair share of the revenue generated by the stuff we helped to create, crazy as that sounds......
