  • If a series becomes popular enough, not even an Author Existence Failure can stop it. If a series keeps going after its original creator has died, then it has Outlived Its Creator. Series that continue on after Author Existence Failure are the ultimate Franchise Zombies. A deceased creator cannot complain about any changes to the casting, style or creative direction of the series. A series which has outlived its creator can (and often is) put through retcons, Character Derailment, Executive Meddling, etc. Sometimes this is simply for financial reasons; other times, it's because the current series-runner is also Running the Asylum. It can even be accidental. When a series outlives its creator, the fans usually watch whoever's continuing it like vultures, waiting to swoop down and proclaim They Changed It, Now It Sucks! On the other hand, if the original creator had Protection From Editors and was driving the series into the floor, the Author Existence Failure may be good for the franchise: there's a chance for the series to be turned around.
