> tfw you find out the author behind the Horrid Henry books got absolutely no royalties from the show or the live action movie>all because her publisher didn't get a lawyer involved before they sold the rights to the company that would make the cartoon and movie.>the author even though the show was soulless too.That's why the show was disposable Johnny Test-tier garbage, and the movie being shit.SadWant toi become a /co/ creator now anons?

This is actually way more common then you think and I can name countless examples like the first contract Viv ever signed with Amazon.

>>150506640This shit reminded me of what happened to Martha Speaks.
