Recent art auctions have raised money for Ghost Rider co-creator Gary Friedrich
Friedrich recently lost his lawsuit against Marvel and other parties trying to assert copyright over the flame-skulled, motorcycle-revving hero. In a shocking move, he was required to pay $17,000 to Marvel for such offenses as selling Ghost Rider merchandise at comic conventions. 
The destitute and now-elderly writer, who has battled alcohol addiction, cannot pay the levy, so a slew of writers and artists have decided to help one of their own.

Marvel has been aquired by Disney. No wonder they act this way. They don't need real artists anymore. Creativity is just a replacable Source now. It will end that some poor people in asian sweatshops sit in a box to do the job.
