Diseased #Comicsgate - The Culture Wars Hit The Funny Books!

I'm pretty sure @SaidNoOneEver was referring to live viewers, not total views, but they can correct me if I'm wrong.
Yes, and as I said, my live viewers were hitting 1300 last week on my solo streams. Higher than usual.

The concern expressed was about the inactive portion of my subs, which I contend are Fandom Menace, and aren’t interacting with my CG content..

Nevertheless, even my live-streams get more rewatches than RP has backers. That’s my backer base.

Somewhat buried in amongst the shit-flinging and butthurt of Nasser's stream today, was a brief but interesting discussion of the failings of traditional US comics:


I definitely agree about the European size being better than the traditional US floppy size. You can even take any good US comic, print it in European/international size, and it just automatically becomes about 15% better.

As for scheduling and page count, it's interesting to look at Bolland's early work - he did one of the first direct market 12-issue series for DC in the early 80s, Camelot 3000 (where he struggled with the deadlines), and then followed it up with the prestige edition The Killing Joke, where he says DC basically gave him no deadline, they let him work at his own pace.

As a Bolland/TKJ fan, I was surprised to see how pants his art is in Camelot 3K, compared to TKJ. Here's some examples for comparison:

Frog, don't listen to them. You should continue down your current path. :smug:

Every YouTube channel is like this.

No, they aren't. Not every channel is 89% or whatever inactive.

Yes, but some European comics (esp French) are being made in Cyberfrog pace and cost about the same per page.
 
Forgive me if I'm wrong, but one of the main problems with the US comic book industry is the complete lack of professionalism; cry-bully editors, diversity hires thinking they can appoint management after they get all their friends hired, the lack of awareness of what customers want, weird political sperging that chases out talent and customers from the industry, etc.

Now, looking at this thread and the soap opera so gay that it wouldn't even be considered for a modern X-Men run that Comicsgate has turned into (and has been for a long time), what is actually being fixed by this movement?

Absolutely nothing

Frog must be a Frenchman! The answer was hiding in plain sight all along. That's probably also why he's so ill-mannered.

Time to jump back across the pond @FROG! Come home, to Europe.

At the very least, a space has been created for comics to be made and enjoyed by people who SJWs and the mainstream have shunned.

I think it's much more important than that, but it's still new.

If CG made art like this:

People would appreciate both the price and the wait.

They do not.

Meanwhile, people sick and tired of postmodern effeminate comicbooks could give Epicentre Comix a try. They do translations of Itallian action comics.

Art is sketchier and rougher (but the Itallians publish 100 pages a month)

but there is a lot of oldschool action. Hell, their most popular title is a western, then Horror (with Dylan Dog)

Or, you know, read some 2000AD and realize they should have nuked the UK before the British Invasion...

PS: On the @NasserRabadi13 / @VIkkiVerse drama, Nasser, if you were not trying to put pussies into microwaves you might have been a non-virgin already...

Shhh, don't show that high-quality and TIMELY artwork around here. It makes the Youtubers Comicsgrifters get nervous and they might start posting their bank accounts next to own the customers haters.

You mean comic book artists in other countries actually produce artwork rather than spending all day streaming copyright free cartoons on YouTube and spouting boomer conservative talking points? How do those foreign artists make a living if they're not avoiding their craft?

That never happened, first of all. Second of all, I don't know why everyone keeps bringing up "virginity" as if it's some kind of own. Maybe Vikki is obsessed with it because she's a dead egger and nobody will sleep with her. I don't know. You guys bring it up as if I'm desperately trying to sleep around and failing. I'm not that type of person nor do I want to be.

No, the own is you voluntarily cucking yourself by going to war with a part of your customer base. And why? Because Vikki and Dean pointed out CG had a dip as a movement.

Still, it is a fun pun to a situation that is dumb and gay.

Don't forget your training bra on your next date.
