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

*Looks around*

Well, at least it wasn't 10 pages worth of stuff this time.

HAHAHAHAHAHA! Sorry mods/admins for ever doubting you.

Gaslighting in progress. This shitbird, along with Phildo, was trying to get the mob riled up that "tHe sWaTtinG NeVeR HaPpEnEd", and now he's pretending he was reasonable all along. The fucking nerve.

Phildo actually replied to Jon of the Rice saying, "This doesn't prove anything", but one of them deleted it before I could get the screenshot. I'm pretty sure back when he instigated this bullshit, that Phildo said if he was wrong, he'd leave twitter forever. Fat chance.

@TheCosmicWarrior this is why I call you "muh Truth" JDA. I don't know what Cummings was intending to do, or if he would have been successful, but you dropping your hat into the feud then wussing out like a little bitch flipflopping like you always do really screwed with the investigation in which you had no place in. You and Ethan are much more alike than different, in that you both stroke your own ego-penis like it's the a must-do or else the world will end. Get fucked, you're a loose canon and you can't be trusted with anything because you go running your mouth like a teenage girl spreading gossip. Take @Mister Dongs advice:

@TheCosmicWarrior I hope the lesson you take away from this is that you shouldn't start making claims on twitter when the outcome is still in question. What benefit was there to involving yourself publicly in this before you got definitive results from the relevant PD?

George RR Martin fans are looking around saying "only TWO years? "

The thing about that is, at least people had a chance to read GRRM's work AND watch a TV show based on his books. I'd be pissed mad at waiting on something I have no clue about the quality on.

How many Game of Throne fans do you think preordered prepurchased the book?

Amazon doesn't charge money until the product ships. Bookstores hold preorders for you until you show up to pay for it, or on Barnes you can prepurchase or add it to a wishlist with reminders on the publish date.

Until I see compelling evidence to the contrary, I am certain Mitch defrauded his customers by planning all along to take their money to finance his startup instead of making the book, used the success of the Red Rooster project to convince Walmart of the merits of the indie Comicscene, used backer money to print the books for the walmart deal, and is just now starting to handle his obligation to the backers.

He already has a deal to produce issue 2 and 3 of Red Rooster for Walmart, so he can just reprint 1-3 together for an overpriced TPB that a bunch of fools bought 2 years ago. Getting paid twice for one job is a good deal.

If a couple bonerheads want refunds, what's it matter now? He's had their moolah in his bank account for 2 years earning interest, it's fewer books he has to print and ship. Or the excess can find their way onto Walmart Shelves next year as Red Rooster Premium collected Edition $15.99

The virus killed whatever sales he hoped to have so I'm curious where the money is going to come from to fulfill backers. That first issue of those three Walmart books was 100,000 units. When will Issue #2's 100,000 units hit shelves? #3 hasn't even been written yet apparently.

I'm not seeing how that IGG update can be true.

Oh look, Issue #1 is available on Walmart Online for delivery only so that print run was even higher. Why does it say Red Rooster #1 was published in November 2019?

anna's streaming now, looks like the the fandom menace's figureheads have finally decided to put some pressure now on the war campaign. I won't be surprised if geeks and gamers jeremy start pumping out some videos in the next few days about them.

Frog was right, TFM drama is so soft and innocent compared to Comicsgate. They're having a 600-viewer stream civil venting about trolls making similar sounding twitter account names like "The Star Wars Girl" and "Miss Star Wars Girl".

Meanwhile....

Ironically, Walmart is one of the few places you can buy comics during the crazy lockdown orders in some areas.

*Edit: Readerlinks Books is a distributor to walmart. The Walmart deal probably involved them.

If IBS sets any precedence, inevitably this will escalate into warcampaign involving ethan's wife. nothing's off limits to these spergs

Readerlinks Books is a distributor, but I thought Mitch's company was handling that. I know Walmart has product listings from 3rd party sellers on their site, maybe it's a company that bought a bunch of comics to resell them. I know it was being called the Walmart deal, but I vaguely remember it was with several retailers.

Barnes and Nobles does it too. It's so if you can't find something sold by the company, you don't go running to amazon and Walmart/Barnes gets a cut.

I was just about to edit my post that Readerlink is a major Walmart distributor. Still seems weird that the books are branded with their name. I found it odd because on the Red Rooster link in my post if you click on Mitch's name it takes you to all the Readerlink books.

Walmart ordered 1,000,000 books. Divide by 4 titles and three issues each title.

DorkGrift has thrown his hat in whilst pretending to act cool with his cigarette in hand.

TL: DW: His point is for people to stop broadbrushing each other with labels, and his other point is that maybe it's time for WC to "graduate" from the name and just become CG. He also recommends for Ro to give the mantle to Steve Dye, because he's the most quiet one who keeps his head down.

The overlooked waifu that is Testefy has something to say about this:



#BLAMETESTEFY?

 

[Smug Freiza]

He is trying to stop photos, short videos and doxxes from coming out.

Elaborate on this?

Well the Alterna Saga is now over but for the shouting. Pete has released the clip of the removed livestream along with some of the paperwork and a clip from this update video. Hopefully he sticks more up on twitter or Cummings does now he got beat to the punch. Case is closed a bloke rung the PD and hasn't been found.

Looks like it was a standard police callout where they went in 'hot' and pointed guns at him. Police term it as a swatting in the part of the report released, so splitting hairs over that isn't worth the time.

Spoiler: Paperwork screens

Well so much for the Simeti Swatting Saga, at least we all now have closure on this issue. Cummings, Hut and JDA must be feeling pretty stupid right about now. Still I don't know why Peter just didn't drop this information when he was initially questioned.

Not to question you, oh benevolent mod, sir, but some questions are nagging at me.

1. Is there any chance these five accounts are indeed separate user's who happen to use the same VPN service? It would appear that all the accounts limit who can view their profile with the exception of @Super Fuzz

2. Second question is directed to the user/s themselves. According to their post history @Super Fuzz @Learnings are pro-CG accounts, @Southern Man @Drar Destrom @Veronica are all anti-CG accounts. Why is this individual operating so many sock accounts on various sides, and for what purpose? Is it simply to troll?

3. The most important question of all to @Learnings . Does.. does this mean we won't be getting Anna and Mandy's nudes...?

And why is Ro in hiding scared? That doesn't seem like Roro. #BlackDragon!

I find Ro's complete silence during this whole saga to be extremely disturbing. Is he off about to an-hero because his beloved Caesar has disavowed him? Is he slowly biding his time and building up for a counter offensive? Is he simply too busy with IRL stuff in his life to actually give a shit about this crap anymore?

I'm surprised that pan didn't drive to cg members houses already.

He did drive out to Preston at that con and to track down Crypto Comics (Matt Merz) at his local comicbook shop. It's also theorized he was the Warcampaign member who drove to Matt Wellman's store and put a pro-CG poster on his shop front.

 

[SaidNoOneEver]

Walmart ordered 1,000,000 books. Divide by 4 titles and three issues each title.

There's no way Walmart ordered 1 million books.

3382 stores * 4 titles * 10 copies per store * 3 issues = 405,840 total units

594,160 units for online sales? Nah. You might be able to argue 20 copies per store but the display only holds 10.

Walmart doesn't pay their vendors until the product sells either. Sometimes months later - Mitch won't mind them being late, right?

Here's the list of stores they're available in. Yeah, I counted them: https://www.allegiancearts.com/locations

The same guy that got btofed by a former cuck? I'm impressed he still makes video after that burial.

 

[SaidNoOneEver]

Still I don't know why Peter just didn't drop this information when he was initially questioned.

He mentioned in a tweet earlier today that he wanted to but the police wouldn't give him the actual paperwork until they closed the case and that's why they didn't respond to the 3rd-party inquiries either.

If the Praetorian video is to be believed, then this was a clear attempt at running counter intelligence, and creating the villains of the season. Clearly, anti-CG was a label that has been propped up and given some type of validity that it's an actual group conspiring together instead of just being people who just saw through the bullshit that is the type of disingenuous dealings happening.

Or, it's just TUG trying to create victim narratives and hand them out.

EDIT: Actually, scratch that, I'm leaning towards Panboy more than anything now. Don't ask me why, just a real instinct feeling I have that he's pulling all sorts of strings.

So ro is the figure head?

Given how Ro has been quiet, I think Panboy is running distraction ops with the feud on Twitter, and here on the Farms in order for Ro to prepare a massive intel leak. To which I say, DO IT NOW FAGGOT.

I see it as Ro being the true leader and he's taken aback so his right hand man make a fool of himself and Ro unleash a mother of all gayops.

I noticed the primary attackers stopped CC:'ing Ro in their tweets but haven't dug much to check it out. Not worth the clicks. Maybe its because they're all replies to replies and Ro hasn't tweeted in 41 hours.

 

[WhimsicalTrolli]

Ro hasn't tweeted in 41 hours.

Someone should try seeing if he's okay. He dedicated 2 years to be a yesman and gets disavowed by your idol? Yeah I'm kinda worried for his family because we don't need a laim grey 2.0.
