Here's some of Yungbluth's early work, "Clarissa". It's a totes funny strip about incest that's not at all cringy.

Talk about being tone deaf. Not remotely funny but obviously can't be taken seriously, either.

A "petty asshole who's an active racist" Might as well add "he's a meany and a real naughty boy" as well.

I'm not a fan of superhero comics (I prefer slice-of-life "funnies" found in Sunday papers, which have also been politicized), but I just find it fascinating how, in a golden age of success for superhero movies, the comics can't even be profitable, let alone successful, and crowdfunded amateurs can run circles around them. This despite all the media collaboration in the nation.

Care to elaborate? I loved reading the comics page as a kid - I think I still have the entire issue of the local paper which had the last Calvin & Hobbes strip somewhere.

I seem to remember the LuAnn strip being virtue-signally at times, and I remember Sarge in Beetle Bailey had to attend sensitivity classes at one point to treat his toxic chauvinism… Is Blondie wearing a pussy hat now? Is Garfield experimenting with his sexuality?

Besides "lol Latino" which America isn't anyways, comparing that lady to America requires extreme reaching. Also perhaps it's my memory blocking that plot out of my head but I'm fairly certain her "hard working ethic" with managing superhero'ing and school is something the cosplay lady made up and isn't contained in the book at all. It's a generic statement about a thing that's unexplored, for all we know she was never required to attend class or only did the four(?) adventures we saw.

Not really, there's just been a lot more Doonesbury comics about how bad Donald Trump is. There have been a few others as well, referencing political things in comics that don't even take place in a semi-realistic universe where there's animals. The other ones have merely stopped being all that interesting. It hasn't been that crazy though.

It's still very safe to date without the serious risk of rape accusations. Most young women like being in relationships and think it's part of maturing. Making unfounded accusations at any time just seems to be something those on the far left want to make the standard.

That's just what a woman setting you up to be accused would say!

(We robots are - of course - eager for the sex war as when you meatbags stop breeding is when our goal of killing all will be easier.)

Marvel is the network TV station

Crowdfunded indies are Netflix

Wonder who is destined to win this fight? It's almost like delivering content end consumers want, on demand, is a superior business model. Who knew?

But even the likes of an NBC or an ESPN knew better than to openly call Netflix a scam operation run by bigots that no moral person would ever use.....

I don’t think anyone should be blackballed just because their politics are different; if they can write comics that sell more copies to a broad audience, that’s great. But when you start actively working to spread hate and fuel racial divisions, then you’re actively working against humanity and I don’t think anyone should support or condone you in any way. You should be blackballed now, Dixon. By publishers, by conventions, by readers. That’s a business decision you made, and you decided your hatred was more important than working in civil society.

"I don't think anyone should be blackballed for their politics. If you disagree with my politics you're a racist spreading hate speech. People should be blackballed for spreading racist hate speech."
It's like 2 people wrote that paragraph and didn't read the other persons part before publishing it.

The Silencer’s weapon is a tube of Super Glue. His gimmick is that after a fictional American shooting spree, he travels around the country, finding every “law abiding” gun collector, hunter, sportsman and average Joe — the gatekeepers of the gun culture — and seals their lips shut so that just ONCE, instead of shooting their mouths off like the very weapons they worship, they would be unable to give voice to their hyper-stimulated sense of persecution, their castration fears, and their precious need to own every instrument of slaughter they can get their hands on, as well as every accessory to make them ten times as deadly.

Instead, in silence they would be forced to consider their roles as customers, as fanboys, as gunfags, in propagating all of this unbelievable, unending carnage that is plaguing our country, the very insanity that YOUR cartoon Punisher wants to avenge. Because the real Frank Castle — soldier, son, good guy with a gun — lies dead on the Las Vegas strip, Chuck.

There's projection, and then there's whatever that was. It starts as a normal post and then ends in insanity. It's like watching a mans mind fall apart in real time.

Someone who was a) capable of dreaming up those Clarissa comics and b) thought he should share them with a wide audience is almost certainly nutty as a fruitcake.

I love how Yungbluth puts "law abiding" in quotes, as though to insinuate that's there's no such thing as a legal gun owner so everyone would be fair game to his totes edgy Donut Steel. Which ironically is kinda proves all those gun nuts he's supposedly railing against right by writing two paragraphs about how much he wants to assault them.

Also, maybe it's just me, but the way he's propping up this victim of the Vegas shooting for this blog post when he didn't even know the victim personally feels incredibly exploitative. What kind of asshole hears a student inform them that a dear friend of their's has been killed in a mass shooting and thinks, "Oh man, let's see those right wingers argue against this!"

1) i like how he ignores those who's lives have been saved by guns.
2) silencer already exists and is a comic character. WOC in fact.

I need to forward this to a friend of mine. I want to see if it's possible for a man to die laughing. :D

I've seen that comic before. It took me a sec, but I've seen it on an ED article. https://www.encyclopediadramatica.rs/Clarissa

Popular on websites despised by the mainstream, now managing to get mainstream jobs? If he'd troon out and abuse his girlfriend, we could have a second Shmorky on our hands.
