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

[Stoneheart]

And before anyone says I'm anti-CG, I'm not. I'm not even pro-CG, either. I think everyone is being idiots of varying degrees in all of this, and have thought that since the beginning. If this whole debacle means the industry collapses like the House of Usher and manga takes over in 3-5 years, I'm all for it now.

Zack all the way, that dude is just nice and he will go far with his company.

 

[UnderwaterOlympics]

Our buddy Rorshach has been reviewing Zack's books last few days. He Just finished and ended up loving them all.

Lost Souls:

Book 1:

Book 2:

Kinda wish Ya Boi didn't make that video, it's going to be thrown back in his face when his next book does the same thing. Of course he has an actual excuse; his sales doubled because of Waid meddling with AP and fucking him over, but the woke brigade won't care about that.

I get where you're coming from with this. But I think Zack's next campaign has a good chance at earning as much as his last. When Jawbreakers launched there didn't really exist the EVS bump. Now, though, that'll be massive for him. Especially if he manages to get EVS's cover done for the start of the crowdfunding and Ethan works with him the first week to promote the snot out of it.

Aaanndd it's funded in less than 12 hours

This contrasts with Mike Anger's 'why u no back me' bitch fest happening on Twitter right now.

Nasser has been pimping this guy out for a long time, but he seems like a viper. He turns on people FAST.

Well his last name being Anger sure is fitting. Surprised Nasser is pimping this guy out if this is what he's got
Grabbed these from the first campaign


He made his goal though

This is his second campaign and I think he clearly needs all the help he can get. Look at this nonsense

The hell man? Assume people going in have no idea who the fuck you are. Sell me on the book every time you launch. I didn't even know this guy existed until you posted about him. This is not how you go about hitting 5 figures young lady.

Mike Anger got a big head really quick after Cecil, Jon Malin, and Mike Miller started having him as a regular guest. It’s not a surprise considering he’s retired and has a ton of free time. However, as a co-host, his commentary is boring as fuck and - let’s be real - Cecil’s fake effeminate Long Island accent is enough New York for one livestream.

Oh that's why. I don't watch their streams. I can only handle so many 2-3 hour streams.

 

[Memology 101]

@Memology 101 is branching into comics. He made a 2hour long video on bad comics, he covered a few comics that are familiar. Mag’s Oh Shit its Kim & Kim #5, GI JOE: Sierra Muerte#2, Dream Daddy issues #1-3 and a classic, America #2 by Gabby Rivers:

I like his content, when I can’t hear his voice. So to spare you, I will just skim through the video to get the timestamps:

• GI JOE Sierra Muerte #2: 00:00 - 32:27
• America #2: 33:28 - 57:46 (way to boomer it up at the end there)
• Dream Daddy #1-3: 57:47 - 1:29:15
• Rob Liefeld art gallery: 1:29:16 - 1:32:40
• Oh Shit it’s Kim & Kim #5: 1:32:41 - 2:14:32 (Expect a DMCA, Uncle Mags hates when people don’t kiss his ass in reviews)
• Extra stuff: 2:14:33 - End

Edit: @Memology 101 you haven’t read any real cringe until you’ve seen Chelsea Cain’s Man-Eaters. Do not view all in one sitting and especially while hungry/eating.

thanks for enduring that stream lol

Yeah when EVS et al started dragging guys like Mike Anger and Keung Lee (who seems like a nice guy all things considered) to pad out their numbers of “guests” I completely lost interest and that’s about when I dropped off. A lot of the newer guys they bring in don’t bring anything unique to the table or are just boring to listen to. Couple this with the fact that they often host livestreams with no particular subject of discussion and you just have hours and hours of flacid, meandering conversation with the occasional attempt to sell you a book.

Yeah, some of these guys couldn't sell water in the desert, and random multi-hour livestreams about nothing get real old real fast. The CG failures seem not to take EVS's advice and go slow and steady building a base from the ground up all while sell, sell, sell. I watched some of an Anger stream The other day with Cecil and Nasser, and after the conversation devolved into who has the best pizza in NYC I was 'meh' and watched something else.

Frankly Anger's art (he is the artist, right? From the lack of hard selling I really don't know for sure) is not great. But it has a quirk that people were willing to spend several thousand to support, that's super. But if mediocre art stirs up that kind of response, every other word outta your mouth on when streaming and image on screen better have to do with the project.

Very rarely do I ever start to question what went wrong in my life while reading a bad comic, so far each issue has made me ask the question. Then another question pops up, why can’t I stop reading it? Honestly, its fascinating how horrendous this book is. Every page, something new to cringe at, something obnoxious to mock at, something that breaks continuity, something that makes absolutely no sense even within this universe’s rules for reality. It’s a marvel, I daresay its worse than Gabby Rivers’ America writing. The most frustrating thing is the art, it’s obnoxiously good. What do I mean by obnoxiously good? The art looks good, the artist definitely is talented, but they’re obviously taking directions on how the book should look directly from Chelsea Cain. Casing point and the reason I decided to share my thoughts:

Only the art is good, when it’s not ruined by shitty photoshopped add ons like the above. It’s like this every 3 or so pages.

Pray for me as I decend into a self induced cringe comma.

Edit: Man-Eaters #7: https://readcomiconline.to/Comic/Man-Eaters/Issue-7?id=152548

Oh god, the page right after was worse:

Yeah, I’m gonna tackle the rest tomorrow.

This is page 7 of 21.

These fucking autists, I swear to god:

SJW Reylo Flashes Counterfeit Receipt In Failed Attempt To Smear Ethan Van Sciver
Posted on April 2, 2019

I‘m waiting for this article boycotting guy! And tell you friend Ethan he will asked about this at SW celebration! pic.twitter.com/glL5iIRag5

Here’s the image Daisy Fan posted:

My initial reaction to the image was to instinctively wonder if there was a mole in some private chat. But Ethan noticed a detail that escaped my initial cursory glance. After tagging Ethan in that thread and telling her to ask Ethan herself, Ethan responded with the following:

I’ll answer you now: It’s fake. See how there’s no timestamp or date?
I don’t kick women in the penis, Daisy Fan Retweety. https://t.co/GbkS5Mhcrv
— ComicArtistPro Secrets (@EthanVanSciver) April 2, 2019

Indeed it is missing the timestamps and/or a date. Additionally, the avatar of the person Ethan is purportedly conversing with is missing, making it impossible to question whoever it may have been.
When looking at the image through imageedited.com, it can’t tell if the image has been tampered with or not, but it does tell us that it was created today, the 2nd of April 2019, at around 7:00 a.m. UTC.

But it also tells us to look at the photo and decide if it looks correct and not edited.
When we place the image through FotoForensics.com, we find that the image has indeed been altered. Notice the bright white speckles around Ethan’s purported comment. It clearly indicates that a square selection tool was used around the text, and Ethan’s round laughing man avatar.

How fortunate for normal people that idiot SJWs are perpetrating yet another hate hoax so close to Celebration. Looks like normal people will be the ones asking SJWs about this instead during the convention.
Because the question now becomes, where did Daisy Fan Retweety get this demonstrated forgery?

UPDATE:
Daisy Fan Retweety has suspiciously deleted her initial Twitter post. You can see it archived right here:

That pic is getting around. That Jessie guy was spreading it around too after his little spergout.
https://twitter.com/Droogs1962/status/1112026539649056768 https://archive.is/bS21s

In other EVS news, he's still getting yelled at by SJW's over the Tico and Captain Marvel toy cutting shit. Yeah it's kinda dumb, but you would swear he was committing actual crimes with the way they keep hammering at it. Jesus guys, they're toys that no one was going to buy anyway and there are far "worse" and over the top toy destruction videos to bitch about if you're that invested

 

[Jub-Jub]

I just congratulated capn manning for the AWL drunken video and now i must do the same here. @damian has managed to make EVS go on record as saying 'I don't kick women in the penis'.


My sides are in orbit, well played.

The funniest part about the Tico thing is I think most people complaining about it never actually watched the video. It was a clip under a minute in length that was looped for an hour. Everyone seems to think Ethan bought an entire crate of them.

Calling EVS a fat sperg is easy but no one is bothering to look at what has them mad and instead going off what they heard from a friend of a friend of a friend who retweeted one guy. It just takes a basic search to confirm what you heard yourself.

He may be a fat sperg but he has more talent in his fingernail clippings than anyone currently working at Marvel.

EVS is still a sperg, though.

He did actually buy a bunch of them because they were on clearance and some guy superchatted him a bunch of cash at the time. He did loop the actual cutting though for kicks

Well at least we got that out of it.

 

[Water-T]

So even though Kiwi Farms posts real proof and SJWs call it fake, an SJW just took something fake from Kiwi Farms and passed it off as "proof".

Irony just came all over itself, then blew its brains out.
