I had been not paying attention to Richard for a while. But his new project "Comic book: the comic book" is really amazing.

I guess people are going to pay $22 for 30 pages of Richard randomly copying other people's 1990s comics art. And even better, Richard is selling his always amazing original copied art for $250 a page!
What do you think the outcome of this... experiment/blatant piracy will be? Do you think that Zack is so small fry that nobody's going to bother taking legal action against him?

I would consider it rather risky. There are people in the industry who don't like him to begin with and doing a whole book not only using their characters but copying art & panel layouts is pushing things right to the limit.

It may be ignored because its so small. And he may be able to get away with it if the first time anyone sees any of the art is when he delivers the books. I don't personally understand why anyone would ever want "Richard C. Meyer re-draws famous comic art" anyway. The whole project just screams "lazy" and "out of ideas".
 
Is this actually up to date? fucking HELL that's low numbers but oddly high backer count. I know it'll get some last minute backers towards the closing but FUCK that's shite as it stands.
Yep, accurate up to the minute I posted. Used to be a time when Ethan could get that kind of cash in a few short hours, mind you this is a Ethan and Malin crossover too. It's a shame really, back in their peak this would been Six Figures Young Lady in a day, easily but they destroyed all that good will they had

On one hand, the mainstream comics seem to be content on just ignoring Meyer nowadays although I'm sure there are plenty of people who would love to take another swipe the guy. On the other hand, this shit is pretty egregious and I don't expect the mouse to take this lying down. Plus I just think it would be really funny if he got dragged into another lawsuit. Would probably just be a C&D letter though That and depending on what Meyer actually puts out, they'll be obligated to aggressively defend their property.
 
Richard C Meyer is an artiste. You take that back, clown!

I'm sorry Richard. I realize that telling the story of comics as a whole through a collection of traced and/or copied panels from 1990s comic books is an amazing idea and will represent a great artistic achievement if you don't get a cease and desist letter before you collect the money.

I'm also sorry Richard for dissing your drawing ability. I realize that you have unique ability to produce primative folk art for comics which few others have ever done outside of high school notebooks.

And a big THANK YOU richard for bringing giant ape cover art back to comics when you did that Jawjackers book back in 2019 or whenever. The giant ape comic story was my favorite story with those guys until you wrote that other book and killed them all off so you didn't have to write about them anymore.

And thank you for seeing the truth that the SJWs are the real heroes of popular culture. The true enemies are people like the critical drinker and Eric July. The most critical thing we can do to save our culture is to join with you richard and fight these evil right wing people so that we can have Kathleen Kennedy Star Wars movies forever.

I have a feeling it will never come out. He'll pocket the money and never release it, he stands to make maybe 10 grand if he prints and ships it?


On another topic, Ethan's streams are really starting to get emptier and emptier. He's get less than a thousand average views and his superchats are more and more sparse. Eventually he's going to be streaming for less than minimum wage.
 
So, EVS is finally starting his Rekieta arc?

Sad.

By the by, when did he get T&H?

Because I'm like 99% positive that wasn't a thing until after the thread turned on him hard. Is he trying to buy favor?
 
I think he donated during the Keffals/DropKiwiFarms storyline.
No. He did not.

I made a note he did not have it in April of 2023. Many months after the Keffals shit died down.

This post from August of this year (months after he was told by this thread to eat shit) is the earliest know sighting of it, as near as I can tell.

It's not a huge deal, but if he's doing what I think he's doing, he's following the Rekieta damage control script very closely. It also won't work. :story:

Null explained it not long ago when someone accused him of being paid off by EVS. I forget the details but it seemed as innocent as the DKF stuff.

Yeah, I was the one that pointed out that B.S. story to Null that still makes the rounds so that he could offer an official explanation, which is here.

In case it's not clear, I do not believe Null has been paid off, or is susceptible to being paid off. Quite the contrary. But I believe it's possibly (admittedly, no proof) EVS would try. And since he has T&H, it would now appear that, fairly recently, either he or somebody on his behalf has made a donation. When, again I until recently, that was not the case.

There are certain interesting parallels between Nick and EVS. Such as an irrational arrogance in thinking they can control the narrative in every space they inhabit, and that they are entitled to.

A bunch of shithead YouTubers are crying because of a 2-minute cutscene in a 40-hour video game. DRAGON AGE: THE VEILGUARD began production in 2015 when woke shit like this was practically mandatory to secure funding. Stop getting riled up by a bunch of closet cases who work for tips. You could watch THE SHADOW STRAYS on Netflix in the same amount of time that you watch some cunt from East Bumbleshire purposefully make an ugly character with the Character Generator.
Richard C. Meyers is off his meds again today. I like the new excuse though, "You can't complain about woke in videogames because they've been in production a long time." That's a good one. Funnily enough, Zack had some negative things to say about Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice league, where you could easily use the same excuse. I see no evidence that AAA is getting off of the woke train though, and what I'm seeing lately is more woke in game, not less. In the Swords and Wizards area there is a ton of competition for this game, so there is no reason to put up with a bad woke game when you have options (and there is never any reason to play a woke game, period, even if there are no other options). Because even with the increase in high profile, AAA woke games there are still a lot of options.

Remember when Richard roasted The New Warriors, a woke comic, that I'm pretty sure had been leaked rather than published? Well, that was just one comic that they did as a joke and that actually wasn't released. You could have been watching Kingdom or something on Netflix instead of making a video about it, Richard.

That was the Late @TwitterisCancer He was nuked from orbit. He done fucked up, but other than that he had some good takes, subract the talking mad shit and then caving to @FROG and Eric July when they showed up in the thread.
 

How is this a flex to bully someone who's campaign failed when it you, Richard almost had a unsuccessful campaign of just stealing comic covers. We will see his books out at a earlier date than we saw yours and he won't gloat about fulfilling books 3 years late with buying a vr headset/transformers.


Same could be said about the incessant bitching about Drinker & fnt.

Guess who's been lurking. Tend to your wife, if you can't finish your books at least be a decent husband/father.
I thought he had people for this? You know, the snitches who hang out in the livestream chats waiting to alert Daddy if someone has said mean things about them. As for his current obsession with me, all he's commissioned so far has been some really lame videos where his butt-boys super-impose my face on a tranny. They're not even funny, which is the sad part. He paid for a full puppet show for JDA. Then again, the fact that JDA ended up bending @FROG over a chair and plundering his asshole until he cried "Uncle!" maybe gives him pause.

So, EVS is finally starting his Rekieta arc?
Looks like. Although I'm surprised how quickly he successfully memory-holed the video of him sloppy drink and licking a urinal.
 
So i watched Ethan's latest stream to kinda find out how much he makes currently on superchats and it's not really great. 110 dollars after youtube takes it's 30 percent cut. Beats working I guess.

The funny thing about Ethan constantly getting in fights with all of his former friends is now there is nobody that's interesting and funny to come on his streams and keep things rolling. No Cecil, no Malin, no Doug TenNapel. He was reduced to plugging in that unfunny faggot Vito and now there's not even him. So it's just Ethan watching videos until people get bored and the superchats dry up and he closes the stream.

There are still comic "pros" giving Ethan 20 bucks to shill their lame books, and that's where a lot of the money comes from. But the money is wasted. Ethan is having trouble selling his own projects now, forget about him being able to boost some garbage indie book by some rando.
