Taking a page from CGC on how to deal with bad press, CBCS has already locked the discussion thread in its own forum. icon_facepalm2

forum.cbcscomics.com/topic/6273/whats-with-the-lawsuit-against-cbcs/

Which means, of course, that it will be discussed everywhere else on the internet where it has no control over the content, including its competition where the term 'Voldemort' must be used in place of 'CBCS.' :rolleyes:

I keep seeing people say "they're suing for $15,000?" Seems petty." No people, it says "in excess of $15,000".
Also, who's the Bornstein guy in charge of CBCS? I thought the guy that started CBCS was Alex Born. And why did they take Alex Born's picture of the CBCS site but leave his Bio up?

Michael Bornstein, M.D. is their CEO.

Someone explained Alex Born to me a long time ago, but I forgot the details. lol
