"If Valiant Published Walking Dead – No One Would Have Heard Of It" – Robert Kirkman Throws Shade At ECCC 2017

Robert Kirkman introduced the Founders panel for the 25th Anniversary of Image Comics where, when they weren't trash-talking Jim Lee, had Kirkman talking about the benefits of creator-owned comic books. And said that if he'd done the Walking Dead at Boom! then Ross Richie would be sitting on the seats, or if it were Dark Horse then it would be Mike Richardson, or if Valiant published Walking Dead then… no one would have heard of the Walking Dead."

But because it was Image Comics, the people who made the comics were sitting there instead.

Rob Liefeld's face was a picture.

Just thought I'd add something to the bar gossip tonight… Dinesh Vs Kirkman in the Seattle late night bars?
