Moore Takes Kirkman to Federal Court

On February 9, 2012, we posted that Tony Moore, the original artist of the hit comic book series The Walking Dead had sued long-time [former?] friend, Robert Kirkman. Kirkman, creator of The Walking Dead, claiming that he [Moore} was in truth the co-creator of the series.

A few days later Kirkman’s response was in the news.

At the time I had hope that Moore and Kirkman would be able to come to a mutually satisfactory solution soon.  Unfortunately, that wasn’t to be.  CBR.com has posted the complaint that Moore has now filed in federal court to be named co-author of The Walking Dead; Brit and Battle Pope.

I hate the reality of this situation.
