You realize you will never get the job if even if you were serious? They only allow specific type of people with connections and beliefs. And you’ll quit in a week because the pay is shit and DC is a bad environment.
I realize you have nothing to do with the job, its posting, or the decision making processes attached to it. So that makes you a desperate ass-licking homosexual. What made you this way?
DC moving to California is so fricking lame, now you have to compete with higher real estate costs and a higher paying writer's room gigs, plus they had to trash this mural in the DC comics office in NYC.
At least when they were local to NYC you could travel out of state to work.
The fact that nobody wants to be an editor for batbooks is just about the biggest sign that DC is a dying company. 20 years ago people would have fought each other with knives to get that job.
>moving to commiefornia to do a job i could do at home
no wonder nobody wants it. guaranteed the position doesn't even pay enough to rent a tiny apartment in california.
Because it's a very stressful job and a lot of work. Even if you think current editors don't do their work, you can read up on editors in previous times talking about having to deal with writers, other editors, and even marketing.
>I thought it was just someone who kept track of continuity
They don't do that anymore. Now they just assume the writers are autistic enough to write stuff that's in-continuity.

I see absolutely no reason why that shouldn't be mostly remote in 2024. The artists and writers aren't in Burbank and the editors have no reason to be there either.
Yes when they moved in 2015 remote was the exception, but particularly on the WB lot there's frick all space for a busy office, and if nobody else is coming in why should editorial? WFH the entire company. Image has effectively been WFH from inception because they don't have editors and it's fine.

Corporations hate remote work because they think everyone is being lazy and not doing their work if they aren’t playing big brother and breathing down people’s neck at the workplace
Studios don't. Studios love remote work, it means you don't have to buy real estate in Burbank to build workshops and office blocks on to make movies in.
I'm convinced DC only moved there because Johns promised it was necessary for his work. There's nothing a publisher does that has to be done on a movie backlot, and that space is valuable.
It’s entirely about the heavy amount of duties and absolute need to relocate to California when most of publishing is still in New York. People already quit when just the offices moved, because they didn’t want to leave New York.
I'd love to, except
>california
Frick that place.

Calm down homosexual, you’ll never get the job.
No one cares about comics. Let it rot away and die. Tom KING is taking over anyways.

Why does it matter where the editor sits? Isn't all the work done remotely by artists in poorer countries anyway?

I keep telling people we’re at the true end of DC comics.
How desperate would they need to be to hire a literal nobody?
Two main Batman editors left because the writing is on the wall.

The pay is under minimum wage tier.
I'll do it. I want Batman in Space and this will be the only way I can make it happen.
They tried to find one in house but everyone declined. Talks with other outside candidates happened but they didn’t want it either.
So what does an editor do? I thought it was just someone who kept track of continuity and told writers and artists what they could/couldn't do.
Nothing. AI would do better.
Pretty much that. Make sure everyone's doing their job and that there aren't any problems.
Then how are they having trouble filling this role? Half the audience does it for free.

hire their autistic lesbian friends
Fine, I'll do it. I'm moving to Pasadena anyway. Expect Alfred to get brought back in a stupid way within two years.

The DC offices moved because WB wanted tighter leash on the publishing wing that has all those IPs they want to exploit.
Pride comes before the fall

Oh they got pride alright

What if they get so desperate they WOULD hire a Cinemaphilemrade? How about it, Cinemaphile, would YOU like to be the editor for the Batbooks?
I'd do it
>for free
but I'm still not moving to Burbank.
There’s a dc shill in here
Warner bros is done and so is DC.
