Richard Meyer v. Mark Waid (2018)

[AnOminous]

Oh, man, I want to hear that. More evidence that Waid is a literal crybully.

(Also, did archive.fo capture that page while a user was logged in? Note the name and alert badges at the top. How did it do that?)

This is entirely consistent with the reports of others about Mark Waid's insane, violent rages being routine occurrences. He is an abusive piece of shit to everyone around him, at least everyone who can't just punch his lights out.

To anyone who doesn't know, Gary Groth is the editor-in-chief of The Comics Journal. He's entirely credible and has no reason to make this up.

Someone play Devil's Advocate, how could Meyer lose this case?

I literally have no possible idea, the precedent makes Meyer's case look really, really fucking good. You don't know what a Judge will do ultimately but goddamn

Mark Waid thuggishly extorts testimony from Antarctic denying everything and somehow comes across as believable.

Nice try Mark Zaid.

I don't even think it matters if Antarctic denies everything because Mark Waid decided to fucking catalogue his inference, publicly, and loudly.

Get a super-biased judge who will throw out all evidence in favour of hearsay?

 

[El Jagre]

Well I'm spending my weekend tracking down that 911 call.

My guess is they go hard on the 1st Amendment rights and try to downplay how Manchild Waid tantrumed at AP. I can't see it working unless the judge is very sympathetic to Waid though.

 

[RockVolnutt]

Nah, it's more so we don't go too far into "Meyer has this in the bag" and since the couple dozen usual Anti-CG people are so confident, I'm just trying to figure out what warped version of reality they're looking at. All I'm gathering from them is they think it's a purely defamation case and so Meyer's own comments about Marvel staff would be used against him.

I do acknowledge we're talking about morons who think their banal social commentary is peak literature but it doesn't hurt examine for any holes in our own bullshit.

The judge is a Republican Marine veteran born in Oklahoma and appointed by George W. Bush.

Damn right. One of the reasons SJWs have hit the wall lately is that they kept their heads too far up their own asses. Let's not make the same mistake. Getting drunk on past successes is a good way to hear God laugh.

I honestly can't see them win the Tort lawsuit. The defamation suit definitely I can see it being thrown out but, outside of threatening the judge, I don't see them winning the Tort.

You're always fighting an uphill battle to win as a plaintiff. All you have to do is somehow fail to prove it.

How many tweets has he sent out that he's billed Waid for if thats true? Seems like the only person in this case who is guaranteed to lose money now is Waid.

"I was only kidding about charging Mark Waid $1,250 for this tweet. That would be ridiculous. I actually charged him $2,500."

Its a weirdly proud feeling watching a lolcalf transitioning into lowcowdom:

I love that these retards have fully embraced the Mafia mobster gimmick:

Nicky Rackets just likes to have fun and laugh at stupid people. I don't think either Mark should make him angry. They wouldn't like him when he's angry.
