Jim Simon on Bennett's ShieldMaster Coverage

'Not Going After the Direct Market'

Published: 03/19/2010, Last Updated: 11/30/1999 12:00am
Jim Simon, son of the legendary Joe Simon, read Steve Bennet's recent column mentioning the upcoming ShieldMaster graphic novel (see "Confessions of a Comic Book Guy--The Boy Who Hates Us All") and responds:

In regards to the column "Confessions of a Comic Book Guy--The Boy Who Hates Us All" by Steve Bennett, nice article but Steve and his readers should know that ShieldMaster is not going after the Direct Market, and yes, I know what the Direct Market is today.

Also the link referenced to the Simon web site is incorrect.  A little fact checking would have helped.

[Editors Note: Simon is correct; the URL should have been SimonComics.com.  It's been corrected, with Bennett's apology.]
