WWE Has Comic Producer Remove CM Punk From All Stories

- The Paper Cutz comic producers have been informed by WWE that CM Punk must be removed from all future re-prints of the graphic novels that they have released with WWE Superstars and storylines.

The issues with Punk in them are currently out of print but would still be available at some stores across the country. WWE told Paper Cutz that Punk must be edited out of the stories that he's in for any future re-prints.

WWE does not have the rights to use Punk's name and image but having him edited out of a story seems like a big move, similar to having him edited off an old pay-per-view DVD. No word yet on which Superstar will be replacing Punk in the Paper Cutz comics.
