men in black

just checked... mib 1 says marvel, mib 2 says malibu...

<<The rights are owned by the original creator (whose name escapes me,) >> lowell cunningham

<<It's possible that the rights went back to him when Malibu collapsed, though.>> i remember marvel buying the malibu properties in the mid-90s, and i think marvel even released a mib one-shot in 1997, maybe that book didn´t do well and that´s why they haven´t revived the property, but then again, a lot of marvel books were really bad during that period and love him or hate him, joe q has made a lot of those books good either quality or sales-wise, which is what matters in the end to

Lowell Cunningham created the MIB, except the comics differed in that there was a conspiracy as to who the villains were, the creatures they hunted (the hunted creatures of myth, werewolves, vampires, dragon's, warlocks, once aliens and others, unlike in the film where it's all aliens) or the MIB, as the rookie of the piece, who is white in the books, is questioning and trying to find for himself.

Yeah but the books do not stay good for very long, well most of them, and end up becoming boring, stale or monotonous, bar a fair share where the writer makes the book fresh at every turn.
