At different points the article says "With both the Endless and Jack Knight, it's not so much that Gaiman and Robinson maintain control of the characters; they don't and if DC wanted, they could use the Endless and Jack Knight all they wanted" and "James Robinson's Starman hasn't appeared regularly since his series ended because Robinson retains control of the character until his death". Which of these is correct? I know the former is right in the Endless's case, but I don't know for sure about Jack.
And if it is true that Robinson has creative control, how on Earth did he manage to get that, for a character derived from an existing property, from the company that says nobody created Caitlin Snow, because Dan Jurgens was just revamping a character Gerry Conway created, but Conway's Killer Frost wasn't the same character?
