https://twitter.com/OniPress/status/1547739804099497994The purge at Oni Lion Forge Publishing Group continues. Confirmed by Graeme McMillan at Popverse and via Twitter, Oni has laid off some of the most prominent members of its staff, including senior VP of sales and marketing Alex Segura, sales manager Henry Barajas, and senior editor Amanda Meadows. Editor Jasmine Amiri was also laid off, as confirmed on Twitter.
It’s unknown if there are more layoffs or who is running the company since the top two figures at Oni, James Lucas Jones and Charlie Chu, were laid off two weeks ago.
It’s the biggest public bloodbath in comics since DC Comics’ layoffs last year.
Per the SDCC website, Oni’s two planned panels have been cancelled.
