That sounded like a slam, didn't it? I didn't mean it to.
The point is that Gerber left Marvel in the 80's under bitter, acrimonious circumstances, in protest over how they'd treated him (and Howard)--one of the earliest shots fired in the war over creator's rights--and I was under the impression that he'd stated publicly he'd never, ever work for them again.
Were that indeed the case, I would imagine--and this is only an educated guess--that the only thing that would bring him back to Marvel (other than a sweeping moral transformation of Marvel's management, which is about as likely as tits on a chicken) would be dire financial need.
If he had been driven back to them by financial necessity, that would indeed be a shame: the financial necessity part, not the Steve-doing-what-he's-gotta-do part.
Although--I just remembered--he did that FOOLKILLER mini for Marvel in 1990, didn't he...
...never mind.
