Its 165 man animation production studio was based in Los Angeles, California from 1998- 2001.  Inc. co-founder Peter Paul agreed to settle Securities and Exchange Commission charges that he manipulated the stock of the now-defunct Web comics company, the SEC said Thursday.

Paul, who previously pleaded guilty to criminal charges of stock fraud and is awaiting sentencing, didn't admit to or deny the SEC's allegations, but will be barred from serving as a corporate officer or director under a final judgment entered in federal court in Los Angeles on Thursday.

The SEC didn't fine Paul based on his inability to pay.

Stan Lee, the comic book icon who created Spider-Man, the Incredible Hulk and X-Men, wasn't charged in the matter. Those characters are now owned by another company, Marvel Enterprises Inc.
