* Creator/{{Capcom}} yanked the ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' license from Malibu Comics because [[ComicBook/StreetFighterMalibuComics their comic]] completely disregarded the plot of the game and [[spoiler: killed Ken Masters by scalping]] in the second issue. The third issue's final pages, which revealed the plans they had for later stories, revealed that [[spoiler: Ken would have survived]], but by that point no one cared.

"No pre-commented examples" is one of the standard wiki rules and applies to every page. We don't need to mention it for specific tropes.


'''[[Administrivia/NoRecentExamplesPlease There is a two-week waiting period (after the termination of a role) before an example can be added.]]''' This ensures the job loss is accurately reported, actually sticks and avoids knee-jerk reactions. This includes "sneaking" the entries onto the pages ahead of time by adding them and then just commenting them out.

According to Garth Ennis, DC cancelled the comic because of its anti-superhero tone.


* Creator/GarthEnnis was let go from DC Comics and even given back all the rights to ''ComicBook/TheBoys'' after writing a caricature of Creator/StanLee into the book (ironic when considering that Creator/JackKirby created a similar caricature in Funky Flashman years earlier without issue). He has, however, been able to finish the series at Dynamite Entertainment and got many other gigs at both DC and Marvel ever since.

* Creator/DougTenNapel was a heavily admired cartoonist and writer between the 90s and early 2000s, having amassed a loyal cult following with videogames like ''VideoGame/EarthwormJim'' and ''VideoGame/TheNeverhood'', along with TV shows and graphic novels like ''WesternAnimation/{{Catscratch}}'' and ''ComicBook/{{Gear}}''. While Doug was already on thin ice for his opposition to the LGBT community in 2011, it was his response to editor Heather Alexandra's negative review for Earthworm Jim in 2017 and his public support for Comicsgate the year after that abruptly stopped his career momentum.[[note]]In the former he responded by intentionally misgendering Heather (a transperson) on Twitter, while the latter is a controversial anti-" forced diversity" movement in the comic book industry that's been accused of harassing women and minorities.[[/note]] He's since been blacklisted from the entertainment industry and all of his most recent projects have been self-published works financed through crowdfunding.

Granted, this was far from the only problem with the comic…
