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

[A nameless trool]

Pewdiepie employed two editors and rented a studio when he was making the longer videos with sets.

He still has 1 editor even when it's just him sitting on a floor looking at memes on reddit. Good editing takes lots of effort and Pewdiepie only makes 5 videos a week, on top of his hours of livestreaming. Richard could never put that much time into a video if he wants to make 3 a day. He still has the job of making comic book content on top of his youtube channel. He needs an editor for his channel as badly as CG in general needs more editors for their books.

Richard does some editing in his videos nowdays, you can occasionaly see or hear some abrupt cuts. He even said one of his best videos (Gotham High I believe) recently was because he did triple the ammount of footage and put together the best parts. But his YT model is a lot of tossed together videos and an editor does not tie to this.
Now, if he decided to occasionally get on camera he might do better but he only wants to see women on YT videos. And he is very resistant to change - unless he is forced to adapt to change.

 

[Keep Yourself Safe]

Anyone else noticed the potential beef brewing between Comics Kayfabe and Zack and his followers on YT? They had a bit of a snipe at Zack in one of their recent video titles and they've apparently been pre-emptively blocking Zacks commenters in their livestream chats.

He also claims that "anti-CG" attacked his stream trying to flag it, whether his referring to the SJW Anti's or the OGCG anti's is unknown.

If you need to tell other people to do the work, you're definitely not the boss.

 

[Elwood P. Dowd]

Not Employed in Education or Training, is a japanese acronym and label for those it describes.

I could've sworn it was a literal category some UK bureaucrat came up with when categorizing the various types of unemployment. One that actually made it onto certain forms over there. TIL.

 

[Standardized Profile]

The peoples champion followed this video with a breaking news story, that Mitchell Breitweiser originally pitched Tim Lim's Black Hops to Walmart for his exclusive Allegiance Arts deal. Hut refuses to name his source, but we can presume this is the infamous "The Shadow" individual who feeds him information from time to time.

Black Hops is overtly political and not very funny, though the second volume at least got on the right track. It needs to be more cutesy We3 and less "Look at North Korea isn't their political system bad, guys?" I do like his Trump comics, though. That Kavanaugh reveal was hilarious. I wonder if Mitch knows Tim tells stories about him at conventions?

What does it mean by "artist edition"? I'm tempted to back Plot Holes, I like SGM and I think it sounds cool, but I might just go for the digital

You'll probably be able to find this at a half price books a few months after the campaign is fulfilled, just like with punk rock jesus. I got that in hardback for 8 dollars.

He also claims that "anti-CG" attacked his stream trying to flag it, whether his referring to the SJW Anti's or the OGCG anti's is unknown.

TUG likes to pretend they are the same thing. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference until you bring up TenNaple. Then the SJW Anti's start sounding like EVS's crew and OGCG defend him.
But some OGCG seem to be cozy with the SJW anti's most of the time.

It looks like an enemy of my enemy thing.

I mean, it certainly does make it obvious, but not exactly in the way that you’d like.

He's not particularly interested in the truth. Seems to be a rageaholic. Don't take it personal though. It's me he's butthurt at for some reason. You'll know it's you he's freaking out about when he accuses you of being alt-right or Vox Day or whatever.

I think I might have given his sister one of these and not called in the morning.

OOPS!

unlocked a hardcover tier

$50 for the hardcover edition.

Disappointing. I don't know if I'll back this or not. I might just get the digital to avoid shipping.

I would have ordered the HC at $30 but $50 for a 120pg book is pretty steep.

The backup story will feature Mike's own character Nexus with art by Aaron Alfeche.

Interesting. Baron is working with Meyer after having said there's nothing good to say about Ethan which clearly pissed off Ethan as seen by his number one sock's reaction.

Liam Gray recently posted an interesting tweet that reinforces one of my previous points

Couldn't happen to a more deserving abuser of elders and slaughterer of small animals. Liam never fails to deliver the milk.

Tim Lim's Black Hops to Walmart for his exclusive Allegiance Arts deal.

This is news to me. I haven't read Black Hops but having read other works from that team I'd say Allegiance missed out on what might have been their most successful Walmart book. Cute animals/GiJoe mashup with slick art would have been a no-brainer to off load to kids over esoteric golden age musings in RR, biographical racially tinged westerns, or whatever Norah's Saga is.

I'm not knocking these books. They all seem interesting to me on some level but I am not the target demo for comic sales in Walmart. Futurists is their best bet I'd say and I don't expect it will succeed either.

They said the artist edition would be full size scans of the original inks in a hardcover. 11x17.

I doubt it would have word ballons.

 

[Wise Man]

Hardcover with only 120 pages? That's like putting vegemite between two triscuits.

What's got EDVS's socks in a tangle? Didn't he jump at the chance to do Frog covers with Dynamite after its employees said they wanted to run up and punch Zack in the face at a convention and scream at him to trigger his PTSD?

In his mind is refusing to pay him compliments a crime far worse than committing felony battery and inducing trauma to Zack? Although Zack would have torn those weebs a new asshole so I doubt they would have ever gone through with it.

 

[Spectre_06]

Liam's still in the comments of my most recent video going over EVS throwing Micah under the bus. He's still trying to protect his Untermensch leader. Spoilering it because I can't screenshot it and make it look nice.

Spoiler

I shared legitimate evidence, I told people what was going on. Goal posts were shifted, I was called autistic, my evidence was moved from the thread and I was thread banned.

What I refused to do was show my doctors name or the video of the woman which is to be used in an upcoming case (as I do not want them contacted by people known for stalking). Like I said in the thread, I'll show the video after the case.

First I beat my wife, then it was my mother. They constantly make things up. Every time I disproved it, it moved to someone else.

You then go on to blame me for the alleged actions of TUG and his wife, invalidating my mistreatment and saying I am being a "victim" when it should be very clear that these are blatant and malicious lies and libel. I

only even posted on Kiwi Farms when I received DMs telling me there were questions for me there on the site.

I pissed everyone off because I shut down the convoluted conspiracy theory. You don't have to like EVS or ComicsGate but the bizarre obsession and spite-based delusion is insane. Its like its own kind of Trump Derangement Syndrome.

First, I was "begging for money" but they didn't show the tweet with me offering to sell collectables OR the tweet saying I didnt want charity. THEN, they claimed there were no puppies despite having seen both the videos and the vet bills which were shown on the bonnet of the car in the same video shot. THEN, they started claiming I beat my wife. Then when my partner came out on facebook and said that was a lie, it became my mother.

THEN, they started claiming the puppies were dead.

There are no beaten women, there are no dead puppies and I'm not revealing who my doctor is or releasing more private information than I have already. Especially since there are people involved in this with a criminal record for stalking. It is not safe to do so and I have been advised against it.

I've already done more than anyone else. You want to make fun of me, hate me, hate CG or whatever... power to you.

But do not accuse me of crimes I have not committed. That is perfectly reasonable and any sane person could understand that.

You got:
1. Video of the puppies and the bills

2. Proof I was not Liam Cameron Gray
3. Public references to my injuries from years ago.

I'm not a woman beater.
I'm not an animal abuser.
I'm not mentally ill.

Time for the Comicsgate Daily News.

Just a final note Liam Gray has been streaming on his co-hosts channel Oz Arts Creations since his channel has been struck. I haven't had the time to watch most of the streams but will report on anything of interest as I get through them, Oz Arts channel is linked below for anyone who wishes to keep up with the tism fest that is Liam's daily life.

BACKUP LIVE WITH LIAM #22 recap

The last episode was Liam vs the artist for Igntion and Mike Baron's upcoming comic Florida Man, Todd Mulrooney. Mulrooney''s contention was that Liam Gray was a motherbeating, puppykilling, Stan Lee memory defiling inflammatory crybaby monster who is the worst thing to ever happen to Comicsgate. Liam's counterargument was that Mulrooney was an Anti-CG disinfo regurgitating useful idiot pawn slandering traitor fuckwit. After further exploration of the topic an a half-hour of cathartic screaming at each other, it turns out Mulrooney's main grievance was Liam repeating Frog's claims about the state of Smiller's finances and how dare he criticize legends like Mike and Doug.

Spoiler

After their grievances were outed, Liam was thankful that Todd had the balls to show up on the (backup) Liamstream and Mulrooney in turn was grateful they could have a respectful conversation (lol). Oz, the "neutral moderator" of this "debate", then forced Todd to hail warcampaign and kept posting more inflammatory shit Todd said about Liam on the screen until it was clear that both Liam and Todd were too tired (neither guy is in good shape) to yell at each other more. Liam then bid adieu to Todd with a final "go fuck yourself" and then ended the stream at a brisk hour and a half.

On a different note from the CG spregs

this guy seems to be late with his book as it was suppose to be shipping in DEC 19. Considering he'll be shipping it out from Brazil, the international shipping will cost an arm and a leg for a Hardback.

There is a reason why there was a thing called Diamond and the Direct Market and it will continue being in the future, no matter what Cassandras say.
KS/IGG is for people willing to pay extra for something important to them to be made, not as a substitute to retail.

Malin is getting progressively harder to keep in line @FROG .

I picked Malin in the pool too.

Good times.

Edit:I have no context for this but Micah is easily the most wonderful case of lack of self awareness in all of CG.

 

[Absurdity]

Customers don't want to hear the infighting, but they can't wait to sing along to "Daddy Can't Rape Us All."

Circlejerkular Logic at work here: Ethan knows what the customer wants because Ethan selectively listens to the people who want to buy or already have bought his comics and lap up everything else he does without criticism. Most of the people he's split with have in fact bought his comics, but when it comes to customer service he places so many filters and pre-qualifiers on it that the only customers left are true believers. It's worked out pretty well for him financially so far and like his televangelist forebears he'll spend every stream casting out the non-existent devils by pushing his dupes around.

 

[WhimsicalTrolli]

I told you guys malin will be next.

 

[KingofNothing]

So how long until Malin gets completely sick of WC and bails out of CG altogether? He's not the first and he certainly won't be the last to jump ship because of those spergs. They've had a part in just about every significant split from the group.

You know, I'm probably one of the few people left in this thread that still doesn't have any real issues with EVS aside from his strong desire to roll around in the muck(seriously, drop the petty drama), but I'm getting a kick out of him bending over backwards to defend a group of spergs that are actively pushing out talent away from the group. You're real lucky WC chose you as the horse to back, pieman. How long until your buddy Fraga gets a taste and decides this isn't worth the hassle either? Because it's gonna happen

First, Picolo isn't CG, in fact I recall he vaguely threw shade at Cyberfrog when his campaign made more than Cyberfrog at the time. It also crashed IGG which was funny.

Second, he's late with Icarus because he's been making comicbooks for DC. (I haven't read them but it looks like its in line with Gothem High: DC heroes doing boring shit like going to the coffee shop.)

(Beast Boy is coming soon. Note Picolo has equal billing to the writer now.)

Third, you're right about the brazilian shipping but things are slowly opening again. He could luck out or he could not. We'll see.

If you need to tell other people to do the work, you're definitely not the boss.

Telling what others to do is exactly what the boss does. You must mean "You're not the boss if nobody's listening to you."

 

[Crescent Fresh]

Is there some kind of explanation or diagram of who’s who with all this? The OP is ridiculously outdated to the point where it still calls Frog CG-neutral.

 

[WhimsicalTrolli]

I'll say after his first book or when he gets an offer back to a mainstream company once all of the virus stuff is over. I don't really see him buddying up with wc unlike most of the big time cgers who have so as long he stays away from them he wouldn't get much of a issue but I can see Ethan doing ops if fraga gets too big.
