    No, what killed it was them taking on too many high profile licenses at the same time and trying to juggle high workload and high demand with short turn around. Pair that with the fact that they change and work on things between episode releases, too.

      Nerdslayer did a great job giving most of the history of TTG, from beginning to shutdown inv.tux.pizza/watch?v=8JUlDr7EdqQ

      Also related, Bill Willingham, who wrote The Wolf Among Us, released his IPs in the public domain as a middle finger to DC, who’s not paying him royalties, nor did they consult him on the making of the game. - exputer.com/…/the-wolf-among-us-creator-public/

        It’s really a shame, I loved their Sam & Max. Their Monkey Island was a lot of fun, as well.
