Hobo Ric is this office’s attempt at a shake up. The current people on the book can’t even manage the basics, and so when they try to shake it up this is what we get. They can’t keep creators, they can’t find creators, and they certainly can’t put ideas together. The people behind this book are a joke. So it doesn’t matter if he’s in Bludhaven or not right now. Until they actually sort their current shit out, well be lucky to get even mediocre stories. They are so in hole right now, and all they seemingly can do is dig themselves deeper. Between this next evolution turning into Lobdell regurgitating failed ideas to buy time, and trying to get Esquivel to take over just as he becomes untouchable. This is way beyond Bludhaven at this point.
