They also somewhat look like this Swedish horror movie made by some friends.

As a stock broker, I should point out that Enron's executives didn't physically steal anything.  They falsified reports that made the company's worth appear to be more than what it actually was worth.

They didn't steal people's pension money.  When their schemes came to light, the stock that made up the pension plans became worthless, thus the pension became worthless.

Very deceptive, unethical, illegal, etc... but they didn't physically steal.  My point?  your comparison does not work... on any level.

Your mind is obviously made up anyway so it doesn't matter.  Both books look like garbage

this is the lowest form of comedy anyway.

Having a priest swear, using the f word and c-sucker every page.  not original comedy, but Howard Stern shock value comedy.  It's one long "in joke."

I just read through the first couple issues online.  What a waste of 10 minutes.

I wouldn't be so proud to be part of this, Matt.

Anyway, what is the financial loss these guys are suffering?  They give the stuff away for free!!!!

An associate editor working for Dark Horse comics solicited Matthew Billman about "Living With Zombies" because that editor was considering publishing it for Dark Horse.

****

Then they should talk to a lawyer.

****

Are you suggesting that the editor was using company time to look for books to publish by himself?

****

No, but stranger things have happened. I thought maybe the editor liked the book and contacted them as a fan of the book.

The more I hear the more I'm convinced they need to consult an attorney!

I love the hypocracy in that post.

what is hypocritical about my statement???

It is senseless to debate a topic with someone whose mind is already made up.

Making valid counterpoints doesn't matter because nothing is going to change Matt's mind.

Still searching for the hypocrisy?

I wasn't saying "it doesn't matter" regarding his original post.  I was saying it never matters to debate someone who has clearly already made up their mind....

Keep reading between the lines though... .thats always effective.

I still contend the following to be FACT:

1) both books are sub standard quality

2) even if plagarized, they would need to prove to a court financial loss.  The courts don't hand out demerits!  They need to prove that Dark Horse negatively impacted their finances.  Since they made no money on the project to begin with. 

3) a similar titled Dark Horse book is BETTER for them!  How many of us went and read Living With Zombies after hearing about this?  Quite a few...
