IDW seeking new managing editor after laying off previous one six months ago
As IDW seeks to stabilize itself after some 𒊎tumultuous few months

IDW Publishing is seeking a new managing editor, six monꦍths after furloughing (and then laying off) the previous managing ed൩itor Denton Tipton.
The IDW managing editor position oversees the daily operations of the company's editorial department, and the company i🎃s looking for someone with at least five years experience in that area.
Denton Tipton served as IDW's managing editor from December 2019 to May🌳 2020, and had been with the company for 12 years. Since then, Tipton has become a freelance editor including heading up a creator-owned imprint for Heavy Metal ꦇtitled Magma Comix.
Although IDW's offices are in San Diego, the 'managing editor' position is listed as "Los Angeles-based with occasional travel to the San Diego lo🌱cation required." IDW's sister company IDW Entertainment, which manages its film and TV interests, has offices in LA.
IDW has had a tumultuous year in terms of staffing. Tipton was one of several senior-level employees furloughed in April, with several laid off the following month. In July, the company's lon♉gtime president/publisher/chief creative oཧfficer Chris Ryall exited to launch his own company. IDW's VP of marketing Dirk Wood and event programming & special projects director Alex Coဣx jumped to Image in August.
In July, IDW promoted from within for a new prꩲesident, ﷽publisher, and general manager, but the newly-named publisher Jud Meyers was placed🌞 on administrative leave five days into his new role and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:eventually terminated. Following that, IDW brought in Disney Publishing Worldwide's exec𝓰utive edit❀or Nachie Marsham to take over as publisher.
