Either this guy is incredible at aping Maguire's style from the old JLI comics or he's tracing.

I don't think it's because he's that good.

Stick to promoting the most perverted campaigns. Those are the really funny ones to riff on and maybe the funny animal /PowerRanger mash-ups. CG 2021 at it's finest.

Keep up the good work.

Liam would deliberately promote bad work to make himself look better and to get in a position of total power over whoever he was assisting [1]. Liam would talk about how he had saved comics[2] and that helping other small creators was part of building his legacy.[3] Liam would "help" a bad project get to 200 backers and talk about what an incredible success it was. Then Liam would get dramatic and ask about if he should continue saving comics given the personal costs to himself and his family.[4] He would ask his chat if fighting to save western civilization through comic books was really what they all wanted.

Meh. At the risk of drawing the ire of everybody here who loves stuffing Nasser into a locker on the daily, I just wanna opine that it's kinda petty to take a red marker to somebody's tweet. Tweets are oftentimes 240 characters of the most inane mistyped shit you've ever seen. Hell, many are composed on a mobile device while the user is literally taking a shit.

Naseer isn't special here. Twitter was a mistake.

Critique his books instead. Which absolutely must be free of of such embarrassing errors.

His books are not free of typos though

This is page one of one of his novels...

That's the cool thing about print on demand, I could go in and upload a corrected file if I want to. I only have my own copies of that book with that typo. If I corrected it today then no other sold copies would have that typo.

I know. Go through the entire book though, if one typo slipped in page one there is a good chance a few more will pop up.
The rest of the 100 days to Halloween samples I saw had some minor stuff (one of them had "witches blood" instead of "witches' blood" for instance, some clanky writing and the phrase "bat wings of terror" (or something) was used at least in a couple of them.
For self published horror novellas on KDP this is nobel-worthy writing, but still walk the walk before you talk the talk. This is what is stopping me from reading the rest of the series.

I think it was horror hovered with bat wings. I like that phrase. HP Lovecraft used it one of his stories (maybe it was Re-Animator).

Some people already pointed out typos to me that I'll go in and fix. The only downside is my guy that formatted the file for me is going to charge me for a new file. But I'll definitely fix it when I can afford another file.

I just watched this video. It's inevitable that when I bestow my grace upon any campaign, allowing it to prosper, an equal and opposite reaction will happen from any number of other struggling campaigns that feel ignored. This is largely why I don't really promote other people's comics, aside from those from my direct circle of pals.

But anything I do will lead to unhappiness from somewhere, worst case scenario, psychopaths who will bitterly stalk me for years.

I'd ask KiwiFarms, under these circumstances, should I promote even fewer CG campaigns, or should I just ignore complaints and promote more campaigns?

You could just do paid advertisements like most radio hosts or you can be like a talk show host and pick projects you like.

No matter what you do somebody will get butthurt. That's the problem with being famous. Letting your critics come on and voice their opinion might also be a way to silence most of the noise.

You're not hurting your own business by helping others. The other comics provide content for your show and you never know who will come to your aid when you need help the most.
Newman's Own said:
No. You were very clear and now that it's been pointed out you're obfuscating.

If an artist pulled the stunt Rob's pulling here on you, you'd be whining about it on the Farms and on Twitter like you did about Donal and Gilmore.

But it appears you have an axe to grind with Cal so it's unsurprising your standards for professionalism relax when it's someone you hate getting fucked over.

Did Cal criticize your writing Nasser? Is that why you're siding with an artist hanging him out to dry and suggesting more ways to fuck him?

I'll have to do a search and see.

EDIT:

And there it is.
View attachment 2279919

This is about Cal saying you haven't done the work to learn how to write and that you're short on talent. He was mean to you on the internet a year and a half ago and you can't move on.

Given that your latest idea is to rip-off Critters (1986) and Gremlins (1984) I'm inclined to agree.

EDIT 2:
This bit is funny too.
View attachment 2279928

It appears you were more critical of Rob when he was more prone to defending Jameson. Your willful blindness in this exchange is ridiculous. Your refusal to admit that the writer wasn't responsible when the artist was admitting he was the sole reason the book is late says a lot about you and your ego.


Never change Nasser. Your pettiness is legendary.

I've offered to be Nasser's editor and for cheap. All he's got to do is agree to never dox me.

I'm here for you Nasser. You don't even have to credit me I just want the pay and I'll read it a dozen times fixing shit.
 
As much criticism as ol' EVS gets (quite a bit of it justified IMO) I must admit that I stand in awe at his ability to live in certain people's heads rent free. His shit posting on Twitter literally sends them into incoherent rants at this point. Viz:

Let it burn. Seriously. Only promote your friends and ex industry professionals. Maybe an exceptionally gifted talent if they come along. Other than that, it's not worth it, you'll only get burned.

Just kidding..

Without your promotion, CG books can't crack the 5 figure mark most of the time.

You're onto something with this new wave of fetish comics promotion though, you just have to see where the trends are going. I think I found the perfect new comic for you to give your blessings to. BEHOLD!! Untitled1122_20210615090735.png Trans superheroes will be the hot new wave of fetish comics in CG.

Can you hear the call?

Time for another Comicsgate News Update

FROM CREATORGO
There was another big increase in listed CG books on the website CreatorGo from our previous update, where the total number of listed campaigns rose over the past week from 95 to 103. Our list this week features The Sinsationals reaching funding and removed from the Watch List with no new failures and several new additions to watch.

Previous Failures
The Current Plane Comic #1
Pillowman and Blanketboy Comic-- Second Chance!
KINETIC

Kirk Lindo's SUPER FANTASY GIRLS V9 sketch goals
Chasing Demons
Airith - The Kentilan War - Tape Two

Since over the past few weeks we've seen the glut of Comicsgate books slow down to a trickle, the failure rate has also fallen. This latest increase in books is more reminiscent of several months ago where close to 10 new campaigns were launching each week. We will have to wait and see if this trend continues or if this was just an isolated spurt.

FROM INDIEGOGO
It would appear that DAMEGANG now has competition as another erotic Comicsgate comic was launched several days ago. The BLUE BOMBSHELL from Clint Hilinski (artist on Pirate Queen and SeaDog and Codename Killswitch) has currently raised $8,320 from 108 backers. The book features 48 pages of adult content and nudity for your standard price of $25 plus shipping.


The only other things worth mentioning from Indiegogo is:
  • Sean Gordon Murphy's THE PLOT HOLES recently fulfilled their digital PDFs. Any kiwis or lurkers will have to have completed the survey sent out to emails to have received​
  • Starlight Cats creator Shane Davis announced a new, more masculine project titled "Project Rex" which includes a sign up page and a trailer that will be featured in our Youtube section.​
FROM THE TWITTERVERSE
The COSMICWARRIOR / JDA recently put out a tweet comparing the decline in quality of art on NINJAK which was worthy enough for a quote tweet from FROG.


The tag team duo of FROG and JDA appeared to ruffle some feathers, with notorious Irish Comicbook store BIG BANG COMICS tweeting out that their orders for the new NINJAK had doubled.

Which was followed by some more passive aggressive tweets about punching nazis and complaining about salty people being angry about art in books that actually exist. Gators BTFO amirite guise?

As for the art itself, it shall be presented below for you to decide.

FROM YOUTUBE
Our very own Nasser Rabadi hosted Shinobi Sasquatch artist Rob Willis for an interview after his campaign co-creator and writer Cal Jameson blamed him for the book being nearly two years late.

DA Talks and VIKKIVERSE christened their new channel with their launch stream last week. The now named The Dumping Grounds streams moved to a Monday night from it's previous slot of Sunday night. The first stream went over crowdfunding numbers including over $7 million dollars in unfulfilled crowdfunded comic campaigns, several erotic comic campaigns and several creators close to PRESTON POULTER actively looking for dox information on their critics.

The next installment of D & V Investigations focused on the Rob Willis interview on Nasser's channel and a growing feud between our very own @9th legion centurion 002 and Roadwarrior Drake creator Alazmat Films.

I'll condense this next segment with hyperlinks so as not to embed too many Youtube videos and crash this post. From what I understand the BIG DADDY / LARGE FATHER did a stream criticizing the recent actions of fellow kiwi TESTEFY-HD, which resulted in a remix song by Comicsgate music maestro Lord Finatra, then the drama spilled over into some discord and resulted in Alazmat doing a response stream. I don't really have the time to invest in this latest drama so if anyone else wants to fill in the blanks feel free, or don't because it's irrelevant.

As mentioned above in our Indiegogo section, Shane Davis released a trailer for his upcoming campaign "Project Rex."

The review team from F Off Well Read reviewed Norah's Saga and were joined by KYRIE creator Matt C. The review team followed with an Asstro vs Cluster Fudge review stream and later a review on the largest crowdfunded comic of all time BRZRKR #3 by Keanu Reeves and Boom Studios.

Yellowflash did a video looking at the recent change in art style in NINJAK, which was previously reported on in our twitterverse section.

The Patriot Hut continues to cover the Poulter v Everybody lawsuit, this time alleging that FROG directed DA Talks and VIKKIVERSE to defame Preston Poulter and Jon Lamont.

Comics by Perch talks about the diversity or race swaps always appearing to be minor characters. The topic was suggested by one of his viewers, which explains the ignorance of the title given that several years ago nearly all of the big ticket Marvel characters had been race or gender swapped.

Poulter v Everybody lawsuit update​

For those of you not following the Preston Poulter v Everybody lawsuit thread here are some updates from the thread:

Whisper Network Backlash​

The other big news that dropped recently was another article from Bleeding Fool [archive] which talked about members of the Whisper Network in comics beginning to suffer consequences for their actions. The article talks about Heidi MacDonald's hit piece article against Fables creator and Cool Story Bro contributor Bill Willingham, which may have been prompted to cancel Willingham for his pro-Israel stance in the recent conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. Bleeding Fool also theorizes that MacDonald's true motives might be to discredit Willingham as she shields a contributor to her website, fellow Whisper Network member Stephaine Cooke, who has been credibly accused [archive] of embezzling in excess of $10,000 from Willingham before she fled to Canada. This was briefly reported on by Rich Johnston of Bleeding Cool, before the news article was quickly deleted.

The article continues with sources claiming that several comic publishers have hired lawyers and private investigators who are doing deep dives into media corruption that is damaging their brands, both financially and reputationally. DC comics has reportedly ceased giving review copies of comics to several "journalists" within the network.

The article finishes by reporting that Graeme McMillian, a long time Alex De Campi ally, was fired at the beginning of this year from Heat Vision and The AV Club's Caitlin Rosberg may be facing defamation charges for her repeated attacks on Jae Lee, Kate Leth, Nick Spencer, John Green and Dan Slott.

The article is definitely worth your time to read, I've included an archive above.

Well that was quite the update, other than some minor drama, new erotic campaigns and reviews there isn't much happening in Comicsgate right now. The big news is the ongoing developments with Preston Poulter's legal case against DA Talks, VIKKIVERSE and FROG. On the recent article about the Whisper Network I am less optimistic than others, one thing I've noticed was that it appeared to be the left eating their own. While conservatives have been fair game in comics for over a decade now, it was only after the sacred cows of Dan Slott, Nick Spencer and Kate Leth being smeared have consequences finally emerged.

As always take care and stay safe out there. :bluelabel:

Oh chill out. Of course promote what you want. The entertainment I've gotten from you promoting Damegang alone is worth it.

But, I'll add this. Have people stopped hating CG now that it dropped the Waid lolsuit? No. Your going to get people mad if you act, so you may as well have fucking fun.

Erik is Exhibit A for why the speculator boom/Image revolution hurt comics.

He's a good penciler, a terrible businessman, and an utter mediocrity as a creator.

On another topic; with Spencer stepping down from Amazing Spider-Man; rumor is circulating that the usual suspect are now trying to pressure Marvel to put a woman on Amazing Spider-Man. Wonder if this is Alex DeCampi's doing, given how fucking butt-hurt she was that there was a mini-revolt internally at Marvel that caused her to not get the gig writing Iron Man. Given how much hate and contempt that Brevoort has for Spider-Man fans and the rumors that Dan Slott isn't even in the running, that I can see Brevoort hiring a psychopathic cunt like DeCampi purely so she can burn down all of the stuff Spencer did to rebuild the franchise and then some, with full knowledge that DeCampi will do all sorts of evil shit to anyone who criticize her; shit that he himself probably WISHES he can do but knows he can't without getting fired.

Well, the biggest thing Spencer did was try to mystery box OMD. Hiring DeCampi would be lunacy. I hope he does it.

LOL he is mad tho, amirite.


Just show the audience comics, and if they're good they'll get bought and if they're shit they'll get made fun of. It's not brain surgery!

Your best bet to avoid shame and embarrassment is to make sure your allies have good comics, and your enemies have shit ones.
And the best way to do that is to be loyal to QUALITY above all.

I mean, it doesn't reflect very well on you or CG, if your allies the CGers are making shit comics, and your enemies the we-hate-CGers are making good ones.

EDIT: He was so angry he had to take a marijuana.

The SJWs are going to start asking about his politics, discover that he is on the far right and that will be the end of it.

And he is doing all this weird, amaturish stuff in the aftermath of firing his own attorneys,. And firing his attorneys between the filing of the initial complaint and serving papers on the defendants. Its like the last act of a James Bond movie. The bad guy's plans have been defeated, his headquarters is burning down around him and he is running around unhinged seeking personal revenge.
