Huh, they clearly must have grandfathered Wein in also.  I wonder if DC grandfathered in all the 70's characters/creators, or did Wein just negotiate himself a special deal?


DC has made a great effort to treat creators of older properties more or less the same as if they had signed current contracts. Granted, that doesn't always amount to big money (not every character has a clearly defined "creator," and not every character appears in media outside of comics), but DC also pays royalties on everything that's reprinted -- even when not contractually obligated. Marvel hasn't even seen fit to do that little.
