Profiled: Jack Newcombe as new Creators Syndicate boss

Rob Tornoe interviews Creators Syndicate President and Chief Operations Officer Jack Newcombe as he takes the reins of the syndicate started by his father Rick.

How do you measure the success of these new features?

By the checks that go out to the creators. Every single one comes across my desk and if it?s a number that I feed good about, then it?s a success. At the end of the day, our job is to get our talent paid however we can, and it?s something I take very seriously.

There?s no shortage out there of great artists and talented writers I want to sign. But I want to make sure I can put them in the best position to succeed and to be compensated for their work. And in this new age of technology and social media, that?s what we?re working hard to figure out.
