Artist Name Changes

Artist Name Changes
glorkar Posts: 690 3/15/2024	glorkar Posts: 690 Just wondering how it's treated when a creator changes their name. Came across one that isn't a simple spelling change while working on the Blue Beetle series. The writer is Lilah Sturges. She was born Matthew Sturges. Both names are in the database, but they are actually the same person. Comics.org has Lilah listed for all of the books she wrote (29-36), so that's what I submitted. Issue 36 already had Matthew in as the writer. Apparently she came out as transgender in 2016. The books were written in 2008-2009. Should I kill my subs and resubmit Matthew?
