I think its as simple as Walmart canceling the deal and ALL of the Breitweister Klan's eggs were in that one basket. Now they've got all that finished product with nowhere to sell it.

I guess I'll do the standing up for Allegiance Arts that I don't want to do.
The response to both of these kind of ends up being the same. The TPB for the IGG is a collection of episodes 1 -6, not a single issue. The last time I looked at Wal Mart for the Allegiance comics, only episodes 1-3 were released. Since I was actually looking forward to Norah's Saga getting more issues and I didn't see any of the emails from Allegiance that I get, mention anything about new issues, I went to the Allegiance web page to see what was available, and saw that Norah's Saga, Bass Reeves, and The Futurists have a 4th issue/episode available for purchase and download. It looks like the other 5 & 6 issues are unreleased at this point.

I was considered backing this, but I decided that since 5 & 6 aren't available yet, I don't trust Allegiance to get them finished by May, If it were another creator or not part of Allegiance, I'd go for it. I don't see it as too difficult for those two issues getting finished, but the third episodes of the entire line were delayed for months. Whether that was so that Red Rooster 3 could get finished or all of the titles were lagging behind doesn't matter. All of them were delayed when they should have been done long before then. I'll just get the comics when they are released... assuming I still care by the time that happens.

No. Today Frog did a draw stream in which he played Zack's latest video and responded to everything Zack said out loud in an attempt to emulate a conversation. #FriendshipGoals

Never. He would have to have a facade of masculinity first, for that to happen.
"We've always been at war with Breitweisia."
This happening goes beyond even my most paranoid, a-loggy fever dreams of comicsgrift and its captive paypigs. They'll honestly throw away their money on anything, for anything, as long as they get to honk "hayul seezer!" in some livechat.

I didn't really consider that, true, but Allegiance Arts no longer publishing new comics through their vaunted WalMart deal does not lead me to believe that things are going well over there.

Mitch and the Allegiance Arts crew apparently did a 3+ hour livestream today promoting the Norah's Saga campaign. It made about $3k. Last night was $30k and it doesn't seem like they would invite Frog on. I'm really struggling to see the angle here.

Frog's desperate attempts to rope Ya Boi Zack into his ComicsGate Tour of Forgiveness by getting him to join a stream are turning into their own little filler subplot.
In review, the week started out with the announcement of a special guest appearance by Ya Boi Zack, a much-hyped event which Frog was so giddy about he was compelled to create multiple trailers to promote what amounts to a conversation with his friend.
After Zack predictably ghosted the entire thing, Frog was forced to simulate it by streaming himself replying in real-time to one of Zack's videos. This doesn't seem to be going well, as I'm about 55 minutes in and it's broken out into an argument twice so far. At one point Frog became so angry he had to walk away from his computer.

After the Zack videos it gets weird when he realizes Mitch's stream is still live.

Ethan said he popped up in the chat to congratulate Mitch and Co, but apparently he was blocked on Mitch's channel.

I guess Mitch really holds a grudge, huh? Either that or he has a mad dog mod with a hard on.
The only reason I can think of for that being the case is that incident at the height of the Walmart controversy when Frog found out Mitch was streaming and sent his viewers over to the Breitweiser's channel, presumably to receive an explanation from the man himself.
Mitch, seemingly unaware of this arrangement, was suddenly swarmed by Frog fans and proceeded to lose his shit and start complaining about trolls dogpiling him. I believe that was the last time either of their streams intersected in any way.

Ethan explained that he received a "very corporate sounding" e-mail from Allegiance thanking him for his help with the campaign and replied to it by letting Mitch know he was blocked from Mitch's channel. Ethan said he noticed the exact moment Mitch got the e-mail while the stream was going on, judging by the look on Mitch's face. He was apparently unblocked shortly after.

It is amazing the white knighting/concerned trolling the Victoria CuntCampaign have been doing for the issue with Cider as of late.
They all seem very concerned about how I have "thrown CiderHype under the bus" when they don't know at all the details/truth about Cider's campaign.
Yet, the only ones who have been throwing Cider under the bus have been doing it since June 17, 2021 after @Stupendus aka SOYRAGE and @9th legion centurion 002 aka Big Daddy thought they were the creative/production mind behind the Trash Compactor Show. If you look at the title of BigDaddy's file, it shows they are not Liam Gray's friend either like they are trying to be now.
Proof Below
There is a way to fix the Cider situation if he would just come out and be honest about the situation.

They say suicide is painless, and hopefully that thought comforts you, before you do a backflip. What the fuck are you even talking about? Better yet, why the fuck do you think anyone cares about your personal beef with your friend and the old dog lady.

You have to understand it's still a coup. It'd be like me going on a bunch of forums talking about this super cool game idea I have. I just need people to make it for me. But btw I also got John Carmack working for me. That's what happened with Zack. He's just a retard with an idea. To his credit he did a couple mediocre comics before. But he suddenly gets Chuck Dixon and the fucking Expendables license. Whilst still being a mongoloid. And now he's back to man with an idea he's being exposed.

As much as I'd like to believe one of my memes placed in a private Discord server had the power to single handedly destroy Cider's campaign, everyone with an ounce of intelligence knows you were an albatross around Cider's neck and the single biggest thing fucking his campaign.
You're so narcissistic you have no idea how despised you are by mainstream CG.
Anyone within your orbit gets stained with your taint and thus will never be taken seriously by mainstream CG. You failed Cider, just like you failed your son Tanner.
Randall Gary Hegg, you are a mockery of a man and a blight upon CG.
Fuck it, lets go.

For those of you unaware, Ethan Van Sciver ran a tremendous six hour live stream for Norah's Saga, a book by the people who took 200,000 dollars of backer money and failed to keep any promise made to backers. On the stream were employees of Allegiance Arts.
Currently, Norah sits at 34 grand; most of which was the result of Frog pushing the people who defrauded his audience.
Apparently someone, somewhere said something about not backing Allegiance products. Which caused Simple Zach to drop an incredibly condescending, out of touch scolder video.
Simple Zach begins as is his wont by meandering around unrelatedly. It's simultaneously impressive and mind blowing that after half a decade he hasn't evolved or improved at all. Simple Zach eventually gets to his point after a minute. He gripes about people encouraging him to go on livestreams, he doesn't like them, and really, he feels they didn't help him.
This is false. Livestreams, Twitter, and other forms of engagement have a tremendous impact. We saw this with Damegang, Zenotype, Trixie and countless other campaigns that the right signal boost can make all the difference in funding. Richard just doesn't appreciate that because Frog has been doing that for him...
Simple Zach proceeds to give a...less than accurate description of events. He essentially makes it sounds as if it was an either or Wal-Mart. For those of us who possess the power of memory this will sound familiar. Its because it was essentially what Mike S Miller tried to do...
Simple Zach then chides people for getting angry and not backing a subsequent project the Saints, stating that he doesn't really care if a project he backs his late, or even delivers? This sounds more like he doesn't back campaigns for the actual book?
After another non-sequitur into movie theaters being over, Simple Zach transitions back. He actually says that the book is YA, not his thing. But he was worried it was going to get rejected and was pleased when it didn't. For Simple Zach, the connection that Kelsey Shannon has built relationships with other people via Livestreams and that he promoted on a Livestream is too much for the Simple One to connect the dots...
Frog then ran a stream where he talked at a video of Richard the SIMPle because he's such a good friend and ally he'll refuse to even come on a stream to have a conversation with you.
Dickie's video seems to frustrate Frog, who attempts to correct the many contradictory and condescending things noted above. It's hard to feel sorry though, as Frog gushes over Simple Zach, playing a Culture Warz video the Simple one made about a Marvel book receiving criticism. For those of you with the super power of memory, Frog praising Simple Zach as a culture warrior is odd as first and foremost a culture warrior has to actually acknowledge culture as valuable and worth fighting over. Which, Simple Zach made a video where he stated the exact opposite last year...

It's important to note that Mitch didn't just stiff CG backers, he actively turned his back on them, refusing to even acknowledge their existence or his own involvement whenever he was asked about it anywhere. He was ashamed to be associated with Frog or Frog's backers. That''s the worst part.
