Now this faggot has to be Ethan Ralph adjacent, while getting owned by said rage pig because he will never make as much money in comics as he did almost 10 years ago.

You could've insulted every aspect of his identity in graphic detail for hours and still not have said anything near as hard hitting as that.

Weird, sure. But when a concept is as lame and as repulsive as its creator and said creator tries to stick it in a moldy trapper keeper and call it 90s cool, the surprise is that people still to this day fall for a rage bait and switch. Now this faggot has to be Ethan Ralph adjacent, while getting owned by said rage pig because he will never make as much money in comics as he did almost 10 years ago.

I hope Ethan Ralph obsesses over EVS, like EVS obsesses over Eric July. The more of these weirdos that Target that pathetic loser, the better.

Second one is Zack talking about how the crowdfunding bubble has popped and people in Comicsgate would like to go back to the industry.

And I'd like to wake up to a blowjob from a different Miss Universe contestant every day.
Actually that probably has a better chance of happening as I have not spent hundreds of hours on YouTube insulting Miss Universe contestants.

He says he's too old (aka lazy and stupid) to fill the paperwork and have meetings in order to have a professional magazine publish his comics.

Yeah, his age is the reason he's not working for a mainstream publisher. If it wasn't for that, he could just fill out some paperwork and be a famous author.
It has nothing to do with his reputation as a right wing transphobic misogynist who spent years yelling about cum dumpsters and autistically ripping up comics for an audience of manchildren when he wasn't attending anal gangbangs in Bay Area shoe emporiums.

Vida said:
He toys with the idea of translating his books into other languages to reach other markets. But he's dead set on reaching the young tik tok zoomer audience who makes videos about the absolute universe.

This nigger can't even get 200 backers for the comics he barely produces in English. Neither foreigners nor TikTok zoomers are interested in anything Richard is selling. The idea that he can reach "the kids" with pitches about the Rockford Files and Osama Bin Laden is retarded beyond belief. Imagine believing that kids with TikTok attention spans are willing to pay $25 and wait THREE YEARS for a physical comic book to reach their mailbox. Get a fucking hold of yourself, gramps.

The fucking projection here. Meyer has whittled down his "audience" to a handful of dents who will bend over to tell Daddy Zack how right he is about everything so they can get a nice heart react from the Godfather of CG. He takes time out of every day of his life to make YouTube videos complaining about other, more successful men.

Zack is the Birthday Party Clown at his own birthday party.

the new predator movie having a good opening weekend

It's "good" but not great. Especially for a franchise that has finally dipped into the lower audience pool. It has good reviews on Rotten Tomatoes so maybe it will have legs, though it depends on the landscape of releases, I'm nott saying it won't make even, but...

So, the world is in a bad place because Cyberfrog's been in a coma for 20 years at the bottom of a bay in New Jersey. He wakes up, finds Heather and her child, bonds with that child, harasses stand-ins for Vox Day and the early Comicsgaters Ethan ran off.
It's issue #2.
I'm sure he had this juicy emotional story he wanted to tell about Cyberfrog suffering in the future and questioning himself, but it only amounts to about 2 pages of him sitting in a lawnchair staring into the sun wondering why everybody hates him.
Then he plays soccer with human children and a fat guy in the woods---and out of no where two villains from the 90s (who survived completely unscarred by 20 years of ruthless space wasp occupation) show up and agree to help Cyberfrog ethnically cleanse the Earth.

He wanted to be all edge with Cyberfrog, and then he wanted to be all feels with Cyberfrog. You can't do both without a fedora, katana and a trenchcoat. Those are the rules.
Changing the character's power-up isn't bad, it's how stupid it is and how pointless it is due to the pacing and the payoff.

The last time I tuned in to Ethan talking about Cyberfrog plans, he was considering having all the Syn combined entities in the universe arrive on Earth to defeat the space Renfamous invasion. I just shake my head now.

You have to know where your story is going, or else you fuck up everything you're supposedly building toward.

Also there's this weird "we're totally not fucking, but we're fucking" atmosphere between Heather Swain and Cyberfrog. It borders on the human girlfriends that Sonic the hedgehog had in various games. It's like Ethan doesn't know how men and women interact in the abscense of sexual attraction. (Heather has Cyberfrog tattooed to her back, but not the name of the dead father of her only daughter born in the end times of mankind).

Yeah, I am not interested in reading a 2EDGY4U TMNT rip-off. I appreciate the effort you put into this post but I stand by my opinion: The idea works in theory.

hat era of hardcore nerds just ranting to a microphone about things they're passionate about was very comfy. Eric living in Captain Logan's basement and putting out like 4 hours worth of videos every week was the peak of the Geekvolution channel too.

Hell, I miss the era of real nerds and ghetto shit on Youtube. I used to talk to Zipblockbloody years ago. I have a feeling the stories posted about him on that thread might be true. BLM shit and becoming fag hooker.

It won't even make a profit let alone break even. If people have any respect for themselves they would have given up on hoping stuff like this would get better a long time ago, but apparently we got to ways to go.

Has Zack ever been a confirmed poster on 4chan? I believe he may be lurking in /co/, similar to Barneyfag and Gamers on Games Dave Simpson. Zack occasionally lurks to defend the mainstream comic book industry and Hollywood, often touting his own achievements. P.S. Does anyone else remember BlowHimSelfUpDude and Zipblockbloody?
Click to expand...
I believe he mentioned that he used to be a poster. Regardless, he definitely used to lurk on it, his name of "Zack" apparently originated from someone on 4chan trying to dox him (years before Jawbreakers, his suit, and his live interview), and he just stole it as a moniker,

Highly unlikely. Zack has never mentioned 4chan in his videos.
He's too much of a bitch to engage directly with Drinker or Eric July, He only lets out his opinions in his youtube channel through videos or posts where he has full control of the comments.
He hearts nearly all of the comments under his videos and posts. He carefuly reads each single one and deletes and blocks anyone who says anything slightly agaisnt him.
Whenever someone says something negative and it was poorly worded or very angry, he screenshots it and replies to it in a post or video as a way to dunk on them haters and prove he's not afraid of anyone.
There's no way he'd use a platform where he doesn't have full control of the replies to his stupidity.

2 Zack videos in a day. Nothing work clipping

First one is just Zack gloating about the new predator movie having a good opening weekend. And Birthday Party Clowns are all miserable who make their money from lonely republican men etc. the usual jazz about them hating art (Hollywood Movies & Streaming Series).

Second one is Zack talking about how the crowdfunding bubble has popped and people in Comicsgate would like to go back to the industry.
He says he's too old (aka lazy and stupid) to fill the paperwork and have meetings in order to have a professional magazine publish his comics.
He toys with the idea of translating his books into other languages to reach other markets. But he's dead set on reaching the young tik tok zoomer audience who makes videos about the absolute universe.
Zack doesn't want conservatives as his audience because according to him they just want their politics repeated back to them and have constant livestreams because they are lonely and pathetic.

Also Eric July is a loser because his most recent campaigns lost a bunch of backers and this is further proof that the crowdfunding bubble popped.

Wow. To your first comment I say this: it may have had a large opening, but that doesn't mean it's going to break even or make anything back.... It got quite a bit of bad reviews at this point in time, and the brand has been pretty much damaged as well. Of course it doesn't help when people go see it and feed their egos and make them think that this kind of stuff giving them the delusions that this is what people want, but hey it's their money not mine.

To your second I say this: the crowdfunding bubble didn't pop HOWEVER people are a lot less trusting of it because people like him and the CG cult have been taking advantage of it and ripping people off making them wait long periods of time for barely anything but more empty promises. Although we are seeing new people get into it and deliver, we have a long way to go before we can fully restore consumer trust regarding that.

As for the Eric July part: he knows what he's saying is BS. He has no real way of knowing how many people back the pre-orders, he deliberately ignores the part where people go to the stores when they end and even Eric July acknowledges that he knows not everybody is going to back the pre-orders but wait for them to end and he's fine with that. He also ignores the part that Eric doesn't crowdfund, the products are already made, he doesn't need the money in order to complete the project it's already been done. He also ignores the fact that in this industry products are not going to make more than the last especially from a lightning in the bottle effect like Isom 1 did. Independent Comics especially ones that rely entirely on themselves almost never make 1 million let alone 3.7 million and you have to be an idiot to think they have to make that much or more each time, these people are crazy if they think it's going to happen or it's a failure on his part unless that actually happens every time, AND he ignores the part where first issues almost always make more than the second or even third issues and I noticed they love to exaggerate the drop offs too. But than again YBZ is a complete retard so..... What can you expect?

There is no way Zack ever used 4chan, on top of having no holds barred on what you can post Zack wouldn't connect with the culture or be intelligent enough to engage with it.

Yet another retard who couldn’t stick to his gimmick.

He got so tired of critiquing (and later lying on) Cinemasins (who are terrible in their own right tbf), he started attacking those anti-woke GrIfTErZ.
Which of course just means obsessing over them, lying, pushing leftists talking points he used to shout down, and pretending he hates the culture war but gives it more energy than the left and the right do.

Richard, we may have a new couch for you.
 
Does anyone know if Riley is still cuckoo for Eric July? Because I know Dick Masterson and Vito moved on from him FINALLY for the most part.... don't know if HE did yet.
