Also I think I just realised why I don't like Mike's art, it's just too clean.
I'd describe Mike's style as heavy realism with excellent draftsmanship, synthesized with DC Comics' house-style pop art of shadowless, idealized form. It's something that works very well for Superman comics and the like but struggles to translate over things like, say gritty crimefighters or anything moody or expressive. The whole "Bless This Mess" debacle proves Smiller
can draw in different styles, it's just that he chooses not to.
Anyhoo,

@TheCosmicWarrior, Jon Del Arroz took to Youtube the other day to announce that, much to his lament, he's been cancelled by indie artist Michael Doorman for announcing his support for Based Kanye 2020. Evidently the artist in question looked at Jon's facebook page and, upon seeing based pro-Jesus, pro-Ye content, notified the Man of the Rice that, quote ""my apologies, but I don't think I'm a good fit. Best of Luck". Jon, naturally, says that this artist blacklisted him, publishes the DM and goes on to call him a triggered little bitch. This
baizuo simply can't handle that a hispanic has his own thoughts outside of Whitey's approval.

Jon goes on to point out that it was people like these, both in racial and in ideological terms that were instrumental in making Nazism a reality and that it was the duty of all freedom-loving Americans of color and creed to resist. Riceman just wants to make good comics and vote for Kanye West and nobody is going to stop him from doing either of those things. He's not going to allow Whitey to turn him into an "intellectual slave", and that's final.
Frog has made an exception for his "already fulfilled campaign requirement" rule for
Charlie's London and
her crowdfund of the same name, and looking at the panel it's not hard to figure out his reasoning why. Fun, feminine and with an unwavering determination to inject upbeat and positive energy into CG in the face of unending simps, trolls and getting colossally assblasted at Mecha McCheese to the point of superchatting other hosts about how mad she is, Charlie/Ayesha is the sort of friendly, appealing face of CG that Frog feels is ideal to charm boomer professionals like Billy Tucci, Graham Nolan and Pete Simeti into a questionable sense of security about Comicsgate. Her IGG campaign's already surpassed the previous Chaplin-based comic and, thanks to popularity with both CG platformers and audience, is having a great deal of relative success with a first-time, extremely niche art-house comic.
Almost simultaneously as this happened, Liam introduced a new co-creator/disciple into the world of Conquest Comics, "Mangaka-Chan", an art college student who loves Samurai Jack and wants to break into creating comics as a profession while studying the craft at day, gaining invaluable first-hand experience with the mentoring of Liam. Needing an ambassador to the wonderful world of Comicsgate in the same vein that Frog would supply Charlie's London, Liam opts for
Ryzie Lee to serve this pivotal role.
Going in with his avatar of his head shopped in with his waifu Stormfront, Ryzie delivers at second one of his entry into the stream and does not let up. Things kick off as Ryzie and Liam begin a catharsis of venting at their various Comicsgate enemies, starting with Rob Arnold of the
Replicators who blocked Liam during the height of the Liamstream and Ryzie's beef with Zombienomicon, who called him a "disgrace to Australia" among many other things before digressing towards a shared antipathy towards the hated one Sketch Therapy. Vinnie Tartamelli, feeling the mood, dons a Billy Butcher avatar and joins in to explain what a feckless cowardly, art stealing piece of shit cunt Joe Quesada is. Based.
Closing his show with some footage of a hirsute ginger transsexual
not unlike Michael Doorman named
Coppercab, Liam provides symmetry to this post detailing the various ways people find their way into this thing we all knows as Comicsgate.
