Surely his crimes are nowhere near the travesties committed by oh say Rob Liefeld

I never did understand why he had to leave. So he said he was a former Ranger. Didn't affect how I thought about the series. It was one of my favorites well it lasted.
I think DC/Wildstorm had no other viable option besides to let Wright go. As much as I enjoyed the book, the whole lying about his non-existent service record thing was a PR disaster a struggling imprint could ill afford.
I'm guessing he's
persona non grata
at most major comic book publishers these days. He's certainly not the first person to lie about his credentials to inflate his professional reputation, and he won't be the last, but he was found out (and in particularly scandalous fashion), and as it happens with these types of things, he's been made an example of. Which is really unfortunate, because he did have the makings of a good military fiction writer.
