Lol, poor Butter Bean still in a bad mood, lashing out and tilting at windmills. I feel bad for you man living your life in a constant state of unhappiness. Maybe you should go buy a new Bowen and cheer yourself up. Oh wait, they don't have anything new coming out do they
How do I know about Bowen's negotiations? I started off in the hobby collections Bowens and every two years or so he would post about what a hard time he was having trying to negotiate the next Marvel contract. Seems nothing has changed. And your right, maybe he doesn't want to expand to other lines. I'm sure he would much rather go out of business when Marvel drops him then have other lines to fall back on.
