A multimillion-dollar jury award against Todd McFarlane, a Valley businessman who has made headlines for buying home-run baseballs, appears to have pushed his comic-book company into Bankruptcy Court.

Tempe-based Todd McFarlane Productions Inc. filed for Chapter 11 protection from creditors in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Phoenix on Friday, listing a $15 million claim by former National Hockey League player Tony Twist as the largest creditor.

That is just plain weird. I agree if McFarlane wasn't such an ass I'd feel worse for him too.

Yes, Todd McFarlane is the world's most successful dorkwad, and it's hard to feel bad, but, c'mon - Tony Twist is a complete asshole, and that settlement was one of the most stupid I've seen since the "Oops I spilled hot coffee on my lap" thingy. You're a goon, Tony. Nothing Todd did in his little funnybook changed that reputation. Grr.

...sorry. Todd loves hockey. We need rich people who love hockey or we'll never have a season again. :)
