A few years later, several top-selling Marvel artists would break from
the pack and form a new company called Image. In doing so, they would shift
the debate from rights and principles to clout and competition, but both
developments would share a common premise, one worth considering even
today; that creators already have the right to control their art if they
want it; all they have to do is not sign it away.

recording contract in front of you what exactly it is you are giving up.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
