Once an indie darling, the author of such series as 12 Reasons to Die, We Can Never Go Home, and 4 Kids Walk Into a Bank, Matthew Rosenberg, has risen to the status of superstar writer, exclusive to Marvel Comics, and alongside the 27 other people on the creative team, has the honor of rebooting the greatest comic book series of all time, Uncanny X-Men, in November.

But despite all of his success, Rosenberg has striven to remain true to his punk rock roots, proving time and again that he's still, he's still Matty from the Block.

Or is he?!

Rosenberg took to Twitter to discuss the quality of snacks offered in the green rooms at comic book conventions…

I want to give credit where credit is due. The @FANEXPOCANADA green room was one of the best convention green rooms I've ever been in. Kudos to them for making it nice and keeping it stocked.

But @FANEXPOCANADA had cookies and pastries, and coffee and soda in a fridge- a fridge! They had tables AND chairs. It was nice.

Perhaps Rosenberg should begin providing a rider to comic cons? Does he favor a particular color of M&Ms?

This seems silly, but it was actually nice. I spent years doing cons where I couldn't ever leave my table long enough to get food. Waiting on lines meant losing money/maybe getting robbed.

Anyway, I think we're still years from getting offered things like the use of a toaster, or pizza, chicken fingers, or falafel. And I have made peace with the fact that I will not see chocolate milk in a green room in my lifetime, but it was nice to have a cookie this weekend.

It looks like Matthew Rosenberg has finally let all of his success go to his head. Clearly, Matthew Rosenberg has sold out and now spends his days online complaining about the quality of the free cookies he gets!
