The use of AI generated images (and more) has been a hot topic and regularly being debated within the comic industry and elsewhere. Some publishers have had issues already getting caught soliciting AI generated images and artists called out for the use. Dark Horse has released a statement as to where it stands on the issue.

To respond to what is becoming a frequently-asked question, a note from Dark Horse regarding AI-generated material:

Dark Horse Comics was originally founded to establish an ideal publishing atmosphere for creative professionals and maintains this focus on supporting independent creators to this day. As such, Dark Horse does not support the use of AI-generated material in the works that we publish. Our contracts include language stating that the creator agrees that the work will not consist of any material generated by computer Artificial Intelligence programs. Dark Horse is committed to supporting human creative professionals with our business.

Not sure it gets clearer than that.
