What projects could Oni or Closed on Mondays set up at CBS? Oni is a 3rd rate publisher with comics that no one knows or cares about. It’s amazing they’ve been able to set up anything anywhere. Just because superheroes and comics are hot right now doesn’t mean that all of these companies should get deals. Insane.
