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

I don't think it was the specific things getting revealed as much as the fallout. He felt his life was over at that point and that there was no coming back from it.
Comics, especially indie comics is small. Gary Groth booted him from Fantagraphics, the publisher that made him a household name with Hip Hop Family Tree. No other publisher in America would want to touch him after the accusations. He lost his 70k book deal, a gallery show and was now known in his home town as the pedophile cartoonist, all in the span of a week. Can't blame him for thinking there was no way out.
 
It’s really quite astonishing. The disdain that so many users have for reading and curiosity on a text and information based platform is too prevalent. I fail to see why so many users are posting here if they refuse to engage with threads beyond flippant calls to the uninformed void. Why jump into discussion only to proudly proclaim ignorance and incredulousness about the subject?

I’ve joked before about users not reading threads before posting but fuck is it disheartening to watch it in real time.
They’ve got to farm those stickers dood
 
Oh no we got featured bois.

His suicide don't mean he had more to hide necessarily, comic nerds are almost all mentally unstable. Many are borderline schitzo. You could probably write a thesis paper connecting mental illness to drawing comics. So far all that's come out is that he made an ugly comic whore slightly uncomfortable in DMs several years ago and then nothing came of it. For a comic nerd, he seems practically stoic.

Can we know he didn't have other issues? Depression, a cancer diagnosis, a giant debt about to crush down on him?
 
This shit is pretty fucked up.
It doesn’t matter if this guy was guilty or not, although I’d lean on the side of him him just being a weird guy that some stupid bitch decided to prey on for her own ego. What matters is this guy killed himself.
The fact that he went out of his way to give all his material assets to his family says more about his Character than anything.
By the way, the retards jumping to grave dance on this autistic guy are absolutely pathetic.
 
Can someone give me a quick rundown down on who exactly this guy is and why I should care he killed himself after being exposed for trying to fuck a child?
He didn't try to fuck a child. She was 17 and legal at the time and she had a boyfriend who was in on the replies too.
I was thinking that he was messing with a 14 year old but, she turned out to be 17. It’s still bad but, he could have came out of that all right. Especially in light of what came of the E-Mails.
Yeah. Her and her boyfriend kept it going to fuck with him. I was in Europe once and wound up talking to a girl who I didn't know was 18, I left her and went into a bar and talked to the Bartender about it. He laughed at me and was like dude you should've banged her we don't care about that shit here.
 
I don't know him, I don't even really follow his work. I unironically would have said something about the fact that people still buy things off an actual motherfucker. If CWC can still make a living so can he. I would have to explain CWC lore though.
You seem like the kind of person who would tell him to kill himself. Your aura is evil.

Dumb bullshit in this thread this morning.
>Teenage girls are to blame.
>It's all someone else's fault.
>Suddenly this thread is full of saints that would've never ever laughed at a comic sperg sending cringe DMs.
>Suddenly the thread is full of societal paragons that would never mock a 40 year old man flirting with 17 year olds.
>She wanted it, what was he supposed to do about it.
>Malin trying to make it seem like C2E2 rejecting them is a shock to anyone.

Let's just be clear: If you are over 25, and you are talking to anyone UNDER 18, you will have trouble. This is not debatable, this is reality. I don't care how many Biggons, Puma Fists, or Kincaids show up to pull the "muh nature's plan" card. Fuck you, Ed was an adult, and every fucking adult knows not to involve yourself with children. Ed knew FULL WELL what the fuck he was doing, and why it was wrong. That's why he didn't parade this shit around publicly. "Look at my nude drawing of a big boobie 17 year old!"
It is quite pathetic to see people rushing to this thread to clear their conscience.
Relax. There will be more Ed P's, you'll wear out your weak hearts trying to bleed out for each of these people you've never met, and never will meet.
 
Instead of writing that suicide novella he should've presented it in comic-strip form. At least be original.
That reminded me of Brandon Graham's 'Diss Track' when he was cancelled for....having a threesome with two women (maybe one was a tranny, can't remember) who did work on his anthology series 'Island'.

Lol at 'Uncle Mags Cabin' even other comics troons hate Mags!
 
Ed Piskor's suicide note. Copying and paste it would be a nightmare to read so I screenshotted it.
Even in death I must grift.

It's a guarantee that this loser will forgotten after a month since no-one normal gives doesn't give a shit about comicsgate.

I miss good old fashioned, one word suicide notes or none at all and I've read a few, this is just pathetic internet bullshit compared to people who came back from middle east, old war veterans who had to relive deaths of hundreds by their own hands or others every singles night to a society that leave veterans homeless on the streets.

Pardon if I don't have a pity for this particular loser who detailed his gayops in his suicide note.

Whatever Ed's intentions were with the DMs, he saw the writing on the wall with the accusations and knew he couldn't handle it. His accusers don't believe in a path to redemption or forgiveness and he saw what people were willing to lie about right from the jump. People he had a history with, so they both know what the truth is.

I am always against suicide though I understand it. I get why he did it. But it's pretty terrible to pile this pain onto your family, especially your elderly parents, after pointing out that they are being harassed because of you. Still, what he did and the reaction from internet vultures has proven a point about how trash the online culture is.

Women need to be barred from the Internet.

There was no nude drawing of a minor. That was some other adult cam whore who he outright stated in his suicide note that he doesn’t hide the fact he likes drawing big tits and tattoos in his free time and hid nothing of that from anyone. She just jumped on at the end for clout.

Basically there were three accusations
17/18 had DMs that sound/are weird out of context and in context but nothing sexual happened, the most you could get is an out of context “naughty girl” and offer in the future to crash on his couch. Molly D. It was weird and creepy but not criminal.

Molly Wright was apparently a girlfriend or brief sexual partner. They had consensual sex twice and their relationship naturally ended after they drifted part. After Molly D she came out and did the me too dance claiming Ed said if she sucked his dick he’d introduce her to his agent. She also made claims of Ed disparaging his friend Jim and something about the sales of the Red Room. Ed categorical denied all of those claims in his note, talked about their relationship and had no idea why she pour gasoline on a fire (editor’s note: don’t stick your dick into crazy).

Third woman was a big titted cam whore who Ed freely admitted he said he’d love to draw nude because he loves drawing big tits and tattoos.
