Preston Poulter’s 4D chess checkmate: creating receipts for partisans looking to cite CG as literally the worst thing imaginable.Apparently someone put an entry for Jawbreakers on TV Tropes and in one of the subcategories called Comicsgate a "pedophile movement"
If I could quote @ILoveBeef here I would, but I’m a retard so I won’t. But everything you just said, man… 100%.
I think the only future this backbitey boomer bunch has is unironically coming from the Baller-sphere. Mandy is a hustler, and the first high profile CGer to risk getting Clint Stokered by Malin when she debuted a book off Indiegogo. (Was she protected by the power of elemental Keownium?)
PTP is building momentum like a slow moving freight train. Ethan’s McFarlane style Cyberfrog toys are nice and all, but Parnell’s Johnny Phantasm toys are *available* at Big Bad Toy Store. This means weebs making preorders for Chainsaw Man will casually cross paths with a CG property in a totally nonpoliticized context and get to judge it purely on its self-evident merits. Tell me that doesn’t matter, without basically saying the Indiegogo shadowbans aren’t costing CG. Exposure is important.
Now Parnell is talking about commissioning an animated series for his HIV-negative Transformers book. He’s smart. YouTube animation is very likely going to be where the next batch of groundbreaking cartoons will launch, given how sharply the streaming heavyweights are shrinking their spending. Now’s the time to get on board with new animated merchandisable properties.
