The Hiveworks Guild Statement on Hiveworks Comics
https://cartoonist.coop/hiveworks-guild-statement/
Hiveworks has failed to provide its advertised services, has bled talent and downsized dramatically, and has revealed a massive $340,000 worth of debt that the Guild became aware of in early 2025. We now feel it is imperative to put on record our history with Hiveworks – both to stand as proof of what we have tried to accomplish, and also serve as a warning to those who may consider associating professionally with the company founders.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Discord mod drama never ends well. I know the complaint of these artists goes far beyond "mod drama," but still. I feel like I've seen all of this before.
