In all honesty, the comic book creators that come the closest to doing this are typically the big hitters in the industry like Tom King, Geoff Johns, Jim Lee, and even
Of course when you dig hard enough you can find political sperging and such, Lord knows Bendis has a hard-on for his diverse Mary Sues, but it's harder to find comparatively. Then there's also outliers like Christopher Priest or Baba Tarr of nuBatgirl fame who don't even seem to have social media outside of Babs having a Tumblr that is used exclusively as a portfolio. Hell, after scanning through several twitters, I'd even argue that CG spergs are a minority even among the extremely liberal end of comics since, with the exception of the occasional Trump/politics comments, the ones who have a modicum of talent seem like they care more about getting their name out there over worrying about people on Twitter.
Incidentally, outside of CG sperging I've noticed people like Tess Fowler and Pia Guerra spend the rest of their time gushing about non-comic media like TV shows and podcasts than they do even promoting comics their friends made - if they ever do it all. I've found more retweets of people's Patreon plugs than I've seen comics from friends or colleagues. I guess the comic industry is only a tight-knit family to the extent that everyone else is supposed to lift their fatasses up.
