Wizard Associate Editor Jim Gibbons Let Go

Sep 3rd, 2009 | By Jason Kerouac | Category: News

Former Wizard Universe online editor and current associate editor for Wizard Magazine Jim Gibbons has been let go today, leaving fans to speculate further as to the shaky future of the Wizard Entertainment group. Fans will note that this is merely the latest in a long line of cutbacks, firings or whatever you want to call them from the Wiz.

As a friend of and freelancer for Mr. Gibbons, I can say the man is a consummate professional and one helluva guy. We here at PoP! wish him the best.

    It’s Wizard’s loss. I’m sure Jim will be even more successful where he ends up.

    “It’s Wizard’s loss. I’m sure Jim will be even more successful where he ends up.”

    This.

    Jim is one hell of a great guy. And, he’s super-tall and ruggedly handsome. Studies show that people like that succeed in life. Jim is no exception. Best of luck, buddy!

    I hate to see anyone get fired. Good luck Jim.

    I love you Jim, in the most heterosexual way possible… like a professional sports team.

    I see Jim running Marvel within the next three months.

    Well, Ben’s already there.

    Of course, Brian’s at DC.

    Hmm, post-Wizard Civil War?

    Again, I have a hard time choosing sides at Unos, don’t make me choose between Jim and Brian…
