#Comicsgate - The Culture Wars Hit The Funny Books!

[Least Concern]

I'm sure this move to New York life change will definitely stick and not just be a 2-3 year phase Meyer will dabble in until he's no longer able to sustain motivation and quit, like he has everything else so far in his life. Can a guy who couldn't handle managing a youtube channel consisting of sperging at tweets by Vita Ayala hack it in NYC? Why did he announce the end of his channel before figuring out how he's going to sell the comics he's already paying to be made out of pocket? And how in demand are the skills of a supposed Cisco Certified Internet Engineer who doesn't know how to install an adblock on his browser anyway? These and many other interesting questions are going to be answered as we transition from the Simple Zack to the Punished Richard story arc.

If he went back to doing comic reviews in his tiny apartment where he points his shitty Android phone at his lap while his radiator whirs in the background and ends by holding the phone with his chin while he tears the book in half and flings the halves around the room… Maybe that wouldn't be so bad.

Didn't he claim that he was making comics for life because he'd been so villified on Twitter him getting a normal job was out of the question? A prospective employer would Google his name and that would be that. I swear I remember hearing him claim that, mostly because it didn't make a lot of sense to me. Maybe I'm wrong.

Aside from that, there is an unspoken problem of ageism in the industry. If he does get hired, there's a good chance he'd be working under managers half his age at this point - but that age will work against him before that.

A lot of IT jobs sound super complex and hyper-impressive because the word "engineer" is slapped on to it. He could have been resetting passwords for morons for all we know.

Current job I work packaging for has the phrase "engineer" attached to AD password reset monkey. Nothing surprises me anymore.

So Frog is livestreaming the Zack video. It's been live for 59 minutes and so far they've made it to the 3:22 mark in Zack's video. Not a single person can finish a sentence before someone else interrupts with a stupid joke that never lands because they're interrupted before finishing their sentence. Each person trying to one-up the other, Frog just force-laughing at the inanery. Nobody ever finishes a point. Frog has said "Ok lets get back to the video" at least 5 times while I've been watching and each time plays 6 seconds before the cycle just repeats. It's fucking insufferable.

This is why I unsubbed a year ago. It blows my mind how these guys - the same six guests as the last time I tried to watch way back when - still haven't figured this out.

EDIT: now the ditz who isn't Anna but also shows cleavage for superchats has joined. This is embarrassing. It's a wonder Zack is only quitting and not necking himself knowing what he's created.

Frog’s streams are virtually unwatchable.

Virtually? I had to turn it off and I really wanted to hear their take on something for the first time in over a year. It was like Malin hates Frog now for whatever reason and was intentionally derailing the whole thing.

 

[Ike Aim]

In the other plastic boobs girl's credit, she's one of the only of these characters who asks "what are we talking about?" when entering a stream instead of just derailing the active conversation with whatever pops into her head like the rest of them do. FWIW, Jon Malin, the guy with the Jewish first and last name (that he's apparently unaware of), has just wrapped up defending himself against anti-semitism accusations by showing some random quote from someone else. He's really delivering on the failed rejoinders and quips tonight as well.

 

[A Man on Fire]

Virtually?

@FROG is a comic rockstar (your mileage may vary, I’m saying this objectively), and he has a great deal of interesting facts and rumors and blind items to share. Too bad his stream (like Rekieta’s) is 75% filler, 20% Super Chats, and 5% content. I won’t wade through 3 hours of that.

 

[Miniluv]

It was like Malin hates Frog now for whatever reason and was intentionally derailing the whole thing.

And he just said "nigga" on stream, which gave Fraga a distinct "oh shit" look. Ethan also seems thrilled.

 

[Analog Devolved]

No idea. Malin never gave any details beyond a gmail address, which I guess since this wasn't a service to the public is his right. Maybe Malin did the numbers and concluded it wasn't a profitable use of time. Maybe the person he was going to have actually do the job got something better to do or was picked up by ICE or whatever.




Speaking of, I got the chance to talk to Meyer's all-time biggest simp, Paypiggons, earlier today via his wife's alt he uses. I wanted to know how he felt about Meyer's retirement after the tens of thousands of dollars of GFM donations he gave as well as purchasing tons of original art for da "Comicsgate Museum" .

This does lend credence to @ProblematicUser420 's theory that this was always Meyer's "plan" and that him deciding to move across the country because of TikTok was merely a dumb story concocted by an idiot.
Still, as you can see, me and paypiggons now have common ground in finding that Zack is a faggot
and with that, the healing can begin

Lmao the best thing paypiggons can come up with is "doxer"?
Paypiggons should just make an account here and give his account of the story.

"Dickie Meyer could never take the heat even though he dished it out and despite making potentially life changing money he was too afraid a troon would stab him in a dark alley and yell "comicsgate!" as his skirt blows in a gust of wind, revealing a huge black pickle. Richard shrieks in terror but the subway beneath them drowns out Richard's cries as the troon forces him to the ground. "Take your vaccine" yells the troon and Zack clings to the concrete trying to drag himself away. The troon pulls out the vaccine vial and fills the syringe. "This will teach you not to be a hate monger" the troon says in a baritone voice and stabs home the needle between Richard's tender butt cheeks. "Noooo" Richard screams as everything goes black. He wakes up and his ass hurts. Troon raped him. Zack wipes the tard cum from his Anus and climbs to his feet. "DILBERT GUY!" he exclaims. This ultimately leads Richard to withdraw from the internet and give up comics, returning to obscurity."

@FROG It's one thing to respond to a video. It's another to EFAP it. EFAP is gay.

 

[Mister Dongs]

Frog held a 5 hour+ stream entitled "YA BOI ZACK QUITS! ComicsGate LIVE!", with many of Frog's guests like Malin, Patrick Thomas Parnell, ThatUmbrellaGuy and Mandy Summers quickly piling in. But as the stream devolved immediately, it became clear that none of the guests knew Zack, let alone cared about him leaving comics and were there only to compete with each other for exposure for their personal projects and platforms, desperately yelling over each other in attempts to hold the audience's attention. TUG briefly "contributed" by trying to digress into a paranoiac fantasy about how everything was a big SJW conspiracy against him from reporting da troof on Amber Heard.

Paypiggons, possibly the only person with a personal insight into Richard C. Meyer, was brought on and he drawled out something about how Richard "was an extreme minimalist; wanting to be able to fit his life into a duffel bag". The inference being that, deep down, Meyer wants as few social ties holding him down as he does material, but before this could be expanded upon Jon Malin cut him off to yell "nigga" at the top of his lungs. And even Troy didn't seem particularly interested in discussing Meyer.

Frog was possibly the only person with a sincere interest about Richard leaving comics, and even his concern was mainly mired in nostalgia and their shared history stretching way back in 2016, musing over videos and stunts Meyer himself erased back in 2021. No one joined in. Frog tried to play some old videos, but eventually the wake for Zack was quickly swept away with for the far more relevant to the panel bit of Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the Oscars. Frog, not wanting to waste this high viewcount stream on his treading water channel himself even if none of the participants had anything to say, stretched the stream even further by efapping the Captain Marvel flick from 1941.

Overall, I considered the stream a fitting tribute for the loyalty, cameraderie and legacy Meyer inspired and left behind after 5 years in Comicsgate.


@robo6 Has Zack told you on how he plans on marketing his comics if he's no longer going to be making videos?

 

[Captain Manning]

Like hell it will, you filthy doxing supporter!

Lmao the best thing paypiggons can come up with is "doxer"?

No. "Doxing supporter." I dunno if you can legitimately even accuse Dongs of doxing. Has he ever?

Regardless, "you support doxing" is an common accusation by people off-site level towards people on-site. paypiggons is hardly being original here.

Paypiggons should just make an account here and give his account of the story.

If he signed up for a KF account, he'd then be a doxing supporter!

See how this works?

Paypiggons, possibly the only person with a personal insight into Richard C. Meyer, was brought on and he drawled out something about how Richard "was an extreme minimalist; wanting to be able to fit his life into a duffel bag".

And even Troy didn't seem particularly interested in discussing Meyer.

That's not terribly surprising now, is it? Zack has been fading into obscurity since he cucked on the lawsuit.

I had my fun laughing at 499, but that's old now too.

If Zack is leaving comics entirely, I'd simply like to say I wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors. Whatever those are. He was an ADHD weirdo, but he never really struck me as a "bad person." At least compared to some of the other people in CG.

 

[Johnny Salami]

Zack said he only wanted to do comics for like 5 years, and lo and behold, he only did it for like 5 years.

To say it's cause of tik tok or whatever is so fucking pathetic though. He might as well ditch the channel while he's at it.

Yeah, he always said he was going to do it for a few years then think about returning. I guess I can respect him for living his dream even if it wasn't how he wanted it to go. He's just kind of retarded in a "make stupid choices" way but not quite like the people featured here. He was smart enough to figure out the industry on his own which is more than can be said for most writers and artist. IT will always have work and even companies that hired Indians in Pooland eventually start bringing in Americans.

Did Zack just crash into slumber because his topical pet project books didn't make enough money?

I honestly think his last comic barely selling told him he could really only do one type of comic. That's not a bad thing, but he would really benefit from an actual editor.

A lot of IT jobs sound super complex and hyper-impressive because the word "engineer" is slapped on to them. He could have been resetting passwords for morons for all we know.

Could be. One of my first jobs we had an IT intern just connect mouses and fix sounds. Boomers aren't retiring and they struggle with technology

 

[Rupin]

It feels like a step down going back to IT for Zack. He had the potential to make so much more if he weren’t such a jackass about fulfilling books. People would have looked passed the fact that he couldn’t write a coherent story to save his life. But yeah, the beginning of the end was when he cucked to Mark Waide.
His book sales dropped and a lot of fans turned on him. And he can’t even blame it on internet drama cuz he mostly stayed out of it and the only person aside from us here at Kiwi Farms that really went after him was Comic Book Hut.

 

[A nameless trool]

Zack said he only wanted to do comics for like 5 years, and lo and behold, he only did it for like 5 years.

To say it's cause of tik tok or whatever is so fucking pathetic though. He might as well ditch the channel while he's at it.

The tik tok part was me adding Zack Logic to the recap.

What he said is: I am moving back to NY, I am going to do some IT work as a consultant, will keep making comics just hire people to help, will keep making videos.

But it is kinda fun to watch the game of telephone going on in KF.

So do I. So do a lot of other people. I've ended friendships and relationships over this shit. I think being a pedo is the worst thing in the world anybody can be.

What bugs me is the reasons why some people make hay over pedos. It should be because pedos are a blight on society. Poulter is anti-CG, so it's open season to hammer him on the Lamont shit. Right response, but for the wrong reasons. Vito toes the line on CG (albeit badly) and kisses JDA's ass on FROG's show, so JDA can just ignore the obvious issues with Vito.

The popular refrain here seems to be that JDA does things for attention. He undoubtedly does. He seems to even admit it. The thing is, I always felt it was in furtherance of attention that would get him sales, or some sort of other net positive. That, to me, is what distinguishes this Vito shit from almost everything that came before. I think it's gonna backfire badly in this instance.


Nah.

For one thing, Mark's was actually funny, and there's a lesson you should learn from it but for some reason won't.

I do like to break down stuff.
Pedos are bad, no arguement there.

Pedos when discussed on the internet though... you get some interesting takes
- You have people with abuse history or close to people with abuse history that will get triggered
- You have edgelords who will joke about it because it is edgy
- You also have some deluded folks who want to argue and/or take kinkshaming one step too far (I would put PP here). I pitty the fool who will cross the line of "no actual kids harmed"
- Your average conservative that is too afraid that people are out there to rape their women and children. I am pretty certain a lot of them secretly masturbate to fantasies of bloack, hispanic or arabic people raping their women and daughters or SJWs raping their sons.
- The repressed/closeted pedophile that gets revulted by their own guilt.
- Actual pedophiles.

Then you have the normal people who will say "EWWWW!" and stop the conversation.
So I would not trust anyone throwing pedo accusations around, especially if they sound straight out of the cast of Deliverance - yes, I am talking about TUG here.

 

[Mecha II]

Having weirdo orbiters like Paypiggons around no doubt had something to do with Ya Boi quitting.

Rock and Roll Ninja was such a stupid idea that I have speculated before it had to have come from Troy himself. One of the pictures in his Dox was him with Adam Jones the Guitarist from Tool.

"Hey piggons, I think I'm gonna do a Special Ops version of the Ninja Turtles" - Ya Boi
"Hey that's great, but if you want my plastic surgery money I want them to also play in a band. Playing in a band is sick, and if you want to be healthy you have to fuck every day" - Piggons

With Piggons entering the picture we went from Military fantasy of the Jawbreakers to...Topical PaNdemIC, Ukraine comics and Rock and Roll Ninja.




Were those truly Zack's ideas? Or did they come from an out of touch boomer with too much money?

Jon is making these streams virtually unwatchable.

 

[Sex Cannon Lupa]

The epic YBZ saga brings to mind recently released criminals who can't handle living in the free world and immediately commit a crime to get sent back to prison where every decision is made for them. Some people don't want to be their own boss and have to be working all the time and making important decisions when they just want to eat some Whataburger breakfast tacos and watch Sex in the City. For those people, I guess, working 9 to 5, getting a regular check, and being able to leave everything at the office when you punch out sounds like a luxury, even if New York is like ten times more expensive than Texas.

 

[SaidNoOneEver]

Jon is making these streams virtually unwatchable.

I'm starting to believe that trainwreck of a stream might be the result of them slowly realizing that their movement is officially dead now and the forced jokes and nervous laughter were just a hard cope.

Another interesting bit of that stream is when Zack talks about discussing this decision with all of his friends and Frog doubts that happened because he never got a call, clueless to the fact that Zack is completely ashamed of him now and what he's done under Zack's banner.

Not to get too tangential (and not to miss a dunk on Vito's dumb ass), but I've never understood the logic of this whole emotional argument wherein if something doesn't happen a certain way, people will just forget that gay people exist.

I mean, it's not like kids 8 and up don't have their entire lives to learn about the joys of butt sex.
