We're All Co-Creators, Part 1

Part 1 Acomi and Turk182 talk about creating characters and ownership of those characters. Specifically, the creation of Marvel Comics character Wolverine a.k.a. Logan a.k.a. James Howlett. Debuting in The Incredible Hulk #180 & #181 (1974). Created by comic writer Len Wein (co-creator of DC Comics character Swamp Thing, and Marvel Comics characters Storm and Nightcrawler; amongst others), artist John Romita Sr. Artist Herb Trimpe drew the character in his debut issues, with writer Roy Thomas as the editor. Having always been known as a creation of Wein and Romita Sr., Roy Thomas, now (or, for the past few years), is claiming he's also a co-creator. He claims, that the idea of the character came from him. As the book's editor, he suggested they create a short, fierce, Canadian character to fight Hulk. With Wein, Romita Sr., Trimpe, and Stan Lee having passed away, it's RoyThomas' story versus... Roy Thomas. Acomi and Turk debate the issues of creatorship, who they believe are the true creators of Wolverine, and how much input entitles someone to be called a co-creator. #OMTWF #Acomi #Turk182 #KorovaEntertainment #Marvel #MarvelComics #Wolverine #Hulk #LenWein #JohnRomitaSr #HerbTrimpe Follow Acomi on Twitter at @AcomiDraws and on Instagram at AcomiDraws.
