When Stan Lee was the Editor-in-Chief people loved putting his name in all the issues. When someone less popular comes along people only include the actual book editor. Either is fine with us because they both have merit. Collectible said "no one cares about the editors anyway" and there is a lot of truth in that. My thoughts are that the book editor should be included and everyone else is an extra, like sprinkles on a sundae.

But, an actual employee like Ron may have a more official stance.]]> Thu, 25 Apr 2024 10:11:36 GMT https://comicspriceguide.com/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=19553
Should the Editor in Chief be considered an Editor?

I know it can be a grey area, but in my opinion the Editor in Chief is the supervisor of the other Editors and doesn't actually do any editing. I know that's not always the case, but I believe it's the case most of time.
So in my mind, they don't get credit as a Creator.

A couple of us are just people with a hobby of typing names and clicking yes/no with no real stake in the site, so we'd really appreciate some feedback on this.]]> Thu, 25 Apr 2024 08:46:10 GMT
