The cover art is always superior to the interior art. I've often wondered if the actors have to be paid if their likeness is used, and making the interior art less identifiable is a way of limiting how much they are compensated.

"The fact is, a guest star on a TV show can [get] around $10,000, whereas you can work two days at a convention and pull in the same amount — and sometimes double and triple that," says Firefly actress Jewel Staite, who did 12 conventions last year while pregnant with her son and, as she says, "pretty much not hireable." She'll do the same when she has a second child. "Have I turned down smaller jobs that won't pay as much? Absolutely. It would be silly of me to say yes to the job that pays $10,000 for a week of work and bow out of a big convention where I could potentially walk away with $40,000 in two days."

Adds Staite, "My actor friends are always saying how much they're dying for a genre show just to break into the convention world."

second, I'm talking about whether or not they get paid for their likeness being used for a comic cover, not comic conventions.

When you wrote “I've often wondered if the actors have to be paid if their likeness is used, and making the interior art less identifiable is a way of limiting how much they are compensated,” I thought it best to treat it as if you were making a joke about the quality of the art. But you’re serious. OK. My serious answer:

Dark Horse Comics pays FOX for Serenity. I believe FOX pays none of the money to Firefly actors.

Jewel Staite was forthright about her pay from comic book conventions. It somebody tweeted her about her pay from FOX for comic books, I bet she would tweet back something humorous and sarcastic about FOX’s stingy contract terms: “FOX paid me $0.00 times two hundred fifty thousand comics sold since 2005. I’ve already gone to the trouble of multiplying and then converting between currencies. That’s $0.00 in Canadian or US dollars.” https://twitter.com/JewelStaite

Nathan Fillion probably makes the same rate per comic book as Jewel.

No need to ask Alan Tudyk or Ron Glass. They’re dead in comics. But maybe their ghosts get paid? The ghosts made guest star appearances in the Free Comic Book Day 2016 “Serenity-The Warrior and the Wind (2016).cbr” at www.mediafire.com/folder/1uwh75oa407q8/Firefly

Jewel Staite...I bet she would tweet back something humorous and sarcastic...

Nathan Fillion probably makes...

Why didn't you just say "I don't know"?

But I do know. I don’t have to read the Firefly contracts to know what is in them because I know what a bastard Rupert Murdoch of FOX is. This guy is Scrooge.

The Firefly actors signed a release giving their rights to FOX or else they would not have been hired:

AUTHORIZATION TO REPRODUCE PHYSICAL LIKENESS AND/OR VOICE

I hereby irrevocably grant to __________________ (herein “Producer”) and any parent, subsidiary and affiliated corporations and their respective successors, assigns, licensees, employees and agents, the right in perpetuity thoughout the universe, and in all now known and hereafter existing media, and in any language, to use my name (including any fictitious names heretofore or hereafter used by me), physical likeness and/or voice in and in connection with the production, exhibition, exploitation, merchandising, advertising and promotion of the motion picture tentatively entitled ___________ (the “Picture”).

I agree that the foregoing grant includes the right to use my physical likeness in any form, including, without limitation, a photograph, picture, artistic rendering, silhouette or other reproduction by photograph, film, tape, or otherwise.

The rights granted herein include the right to use the Picture or excerpts or stills form the Picture (include excerpts or stills containing my likeness and/or voice) in any other motion picture, publication, recording, or other medium and includes the right to edit, delete, and/or juxtapose (with any other part of the Picture), any part of the Picture in which I appear, and/or change the sequence of events in the Picture.

All rights, title and interest in and to the results and proceeds of the services and performances rendered by me in connection with the production of the Picture or any portion therefor shall, from its inception, be the sole property of Producer, free from any claim whatsoever by me or any other person.
