Kyle Baker Publishing announced today it has finalized an exclusive agreement with the legendary cartoonist and graphic novel pioneer Kyle Baker, granting the cartoonist an unprecedented degree of creative control and profit participation.

“KBP is an amazing publisher. I’ve had a great working relationship with them for years,” says Baker. “They’ve done an incredible job with NAT TURNER and the CARTOONIST books. When I saw what they had planned for 2006, I was ready to sign on the dotted line.”

As much praise as Baker has for his publisher, a good deal of the credit for the company’s meteoric success rests with Baker, who has created for KBP such terrific characters as NAT TURNER and, well, KYLE BAKER.

I just read that press release on Newsarama before coming here and found it quite Hi-larious! It was about time that someone mocked all of the DC/Marvel exclusive creator signings from the past couple of years.

Kyle Baker did a similar thing in his "How the comic was made" section in (I think) I Die at Midnight. It explains how the writer (Kyle Baker) gives the script to the penciller (Kyle Baker) and then it goes to the inker (Kyle Baker) the scanner (Kyle Baker) the letterer (Kyle Baker) and the colourist (Kyle Baker)
