Nerdrotic seemingly agrees with the attitude (often coming from the Comicsgate corner) that culture ‘warriors’ should make their own alternative shit entertainment to be consumed by their fans and is now writing a book, albeit with a ghost writer for…spelling purposes. I first saw this news in YT comments and assumed it would be a comic book, but apparently not so. After looking into it [searching some key words on a few of his videos], I found out that he is writing a proper book with chapters and everything... He is even asking Kelley Jones for help.

Responding to Kelley's wife's superchat:


Talking about his book and he's not above criticism (does the stare convince you?):


On creativity and friends over allies (note the 'friendship cap' in the background):


His friend Eric is 'making some stuff' and comic books should be niche:


So who will be Gary's next ally? My money's on Odin:


At least we know he wouldn't call Vito a map his friend or ally:


Will there be enough digits on the number of books sold so that he can do more of the 'Forbidden Frontier' show that he prefers, instead of this shite:


Seems promising. He has the right friends...


Side note: Last week I came across this exchange on twitter/X involving Shane and somebody dumb enough to suggest that he abandon ComicsGate for Rippaverse.
Ignoring the obvious stupidity of the suggestion that Shane should exchange working on his own projects to work for Eric, it would appear that Shane has no love for Eric and feels hard done by (for the sake of his fans of course) that fans had to pay $100 for a cover and he may not have even benefited from it:

Seems hypocritical considering the C2E2 team up cover situation, where fans will have to buy three different books (that they probably already own a version of) to get all three connecting covers).

Well I don't think Eric will be mourning the loss of Shane. This is the effect he had on one of Eric's closing streams.
No Shane:

This may be my last post for a while (hopefully) because I have found something almost as boring as CG to fall asleep to but not as annoying.
Good luck getting some interesting content from this dumpster fire. The flaming trash surrounding it is losing oxygen rapidly.

Can someone explain the Eric July cult to me? Dude's an obnoxious thin-skinned twat who threatens people over the smallest thing, and his comic is boring overpriced vanilla shit about a country nigga occasionally fighting some yokel street-level goons. As far as I can tell everyone has been won over by his promise of strict continuity, which is probably the least concerning issue plaguing the comics industry today.

I don’t know if he can keep his promise. Isom is on issue 2 and the plot is already a garbled mess. Add that to three more uninteresting titles on the way (Yaira, Norfrica and Alpha Core) and it’s looking like a shit salad.

Go wack off to Mandy Summers nudes or Ya Boi Zack shoe store porno. The only CG creator I think I have said good things about here is Mike Baron, the guy who made the Punisher black. Now that's a race swap!

Didn't Gary and Az do a Christmas book a couple of years ago? I seem to remember them announcing it but don't remember if it came out.

Depends. Is it important for you to dunk on perma-cucked Nick Rekeita and co. at every possible opportunity and to the expense of all other dunking? Is pretending like thick-headed, thin-skinned dumb nigger Eric July is a genius on a noble mission to build the next great genre fiction franchise a small price to pay in order to ensure the maximal number of people take a side against a bunch of "professional trolls" and one washed-up lawyer with a humiliation fetish who probably already get off on all the negative attention anyway? If the answer is affirmative then I doubt anything that I or anyone else posts about Eric July could possibly convince you since Eric being completely and thoroughly full of shit is something you kind of have to have experience with in order to appreciate. The naivety around this guy is astounding and I'm surprised by the degree to which most of KF has wanted to recircumsize this faggot (and most who haven't have at least stayed rather silent). It's been interesting watching groupthink at work, I'll say that much.
 
It seems like outside kiwi world all the Eric July simps appear to be FNT marks of a non-CG variety. I’m basing that upon their startling lack of cynicism re: the viability of the anti woke parallel economy—everyone who was around CG for the last few years already knows how that plays out.

Moreover they don’t seem to be as loyal to the fickle whims of @FROG as the CG diehards who still currently inflate his core of sycophants to six figure releases. Frankly you saw more Eric July streams watching FNT than you did watching Ethan, so logically where is his fan base pulling from?

I doubt the average Nerdrotic enjoyer has a freaking clue who Dax Herrera and company are. They’re just boomers who eat corporate cape shit. All they know is Young Rippa promised them a return to the halcyon days of DC circa~2004, and for some ungodly reason that sounds appealing.

Unwatchable is worse than unreadable, I can skim your unreadable nonsense but CG slum streams are pure pain and it is you white knighting for their honor.

I don't like him, I just haven't been posting about it because the site view on him is like you said disappointing. The latest funny shit on him is that the real ISOM International School of Ministry has posted clips of Ethan Van Sciver and Tony of The Geek Getaway channel on their official vimeo page. So everything in these clips will be used against Eric in the lolsuit and Berin Gilfillan is monitoring streams and twitter. Ethan and Tony dig up some damaging tweets and give Berin a lot of ideas here.

Also looks like Liam is back in the fold for a redemption arc as long as that lasts.
Liam's DinoKing picked up 17 backers from this stream.

Yes.

It’s called: Father Convict and a Big m-she-F-U
…for getting me to comment again.

Christmas fun for the whole family.


Since it's been such a long time since I posted last, I might as well go all in and respond to this too...

If you actually bought/read his book then maybe you can explain better than most of us as to why Eric has supporters/customers?

I'll give it a shot though...
Some people might like him for a mixture of:
-His personality (it’s possible I guess)
-Being black? (Other black people rooting for their own/white people who want to help a black man out)
-Agreeing with him on politics
-Having a big dream and going for it
-His instant success (leading to even more people being curious about his projects)
-Trying to be an alternative to mainstream comics
-Seeing him dunking on someone/something that they don’t like
-The success they hope will trickle down to smaller creators
-His connections/access to bigger platforms
-His confidence/ego
-Being on a show/channel they like
-Being on stream with someone they’re a fan of who tells them to support him
-His videos/opinions
-His band/music
-His business goals
-Having a lot of subscribers
-His writing...
-His warehouse
-His slang/insults
-His money
-His beard/hairy body
-Not being fat
-Employing a bunch of people
-Dealing with Rekieta/ Dick/Vito/trolls and an 'Evil Christian Organisation'
-They think they're supposed to
-I don't fucking know/whatever else

My first impressions of Eric were not great. I saw him invite detractors on his channel to debate them, then look at them in exasperation with how ‘retarded’ they were and thus in his mind (and his audience’s) win some gay point; call a lot of people crackheads; appear very bored on YT streams that he guested on; take valid (if somewhat pedantic) criticism badly; have really dumb fans and a really bad business plan that somehow worked ridiculously well for him out of the gate.
But his opponents are lower than dirt, so he is elevated in comparison.
I’m not buying his books though and don’t understand the actual appeal because the list of reasons not to like him is probably just as long.
If his books don’t improve then his success likely won’t last because while he seems to have many crazy devoted fans, I don’t think most of his customers fit into that category.
He’s proven me wrong before though. Millions of dollars worth of wrong...

At least now he's hiring pro writers, so kudos to him for that. But I heard that he said he can just swap Chuck Dixon's writing for his own, credit them incorrectly and no one would tell the difference...so he might be delusional. Just a bit.


May I never post again...for a while.
