Follow Up Vision Series Cancelled Before it Gets Out of the Gate

The Vision limited series from Chelsea Cain, Marc Mohan and Aud Koch has been cancelled. It was first rumored that the six-issue limited series following up Tom King and Gabriel Walta’s 12-issue series from Cain in her first Marvel work since the cancellation of her Mockingbird series. Cain went on social media to report that four issues had been turned in already and that she has been working on the project for two years. Marvel hasn’t explained why the book was cancelled but Cain says it wasn’t because of her. There was a lot of controversy revolving around Cain when she was doing Mockingbird after she called for more female-driven comics at Marvel and her last issue which had Bobbi Morse wearing an “Ask Me About My Feminist Agenda” t-shirt on the last issue’s cover. Cain has since been vocal about her concerns with the comics industry, especially as it involves freelancers: “The most shocking part of it is that the people who work in it, who support these institutional norms, they’re the best people you’d ever want to meet. They love comics. And the freelancers? They’re held hostage by the work. When Marvel asks you to let something go, to toe the line, the implication is clear. DC and Marvel dominate this industry. Freelancers don’t want to make enemies of institutions, because freelancers depend on the next job that comes along.” She says she has never had any negative interaction with anyone at Marvel but since she has been so vocal about her book being cancelled she isn’t getting any more work there.
