Why not just work with Vox Day's publishing company?

Also I think he probably just asked them to lie about being dropped. They'll probably publish it anyway, and by the time it's out pretty much just laugh at critics.

I'm not sure why he'd go to Vox Day considering he's not interested in the political stuff. Also that wasn't a lie, they aren't publishing it since he's starting his own company.

1. Because Vox Day is a sperg of the highest caliber.
2. Yes, because Comicgate must just be stupid spergs slapfighting with each other! If you admitted anything, no matter how minor, might come out of this, all your ebin shitposting would look even more dumb!
 
it's easy to look at vox day as just the other side of the SJW coin

but the enormous, critical, literally momentous difference is that I've never seen vox day once advocate that a book shouldnt be published, unlike his leftist opposites who are would-be gatekeepers on all art from sci fi novels to video games to (clearly now) comic books

I can't overstate the sincerity with which I say I do not need a pink haired 20 something with a masters in gender blogging deciding what I can and cannot read - I have that 100% covered thanks
 
He starts his own company. So what?! This doesn't make the sjw go away nor save the comic industry.

It will be just another company that publishes non sjw comics like so many others.

Do they really want to deal with bad PR?
"Nice" statement or not, it's much easier to stick to their guns than play with fire. This will bite them hard.

I really wonder why companies have not learned fucking nothing these past few years about kow-towing to what crybabies want?
You give them an inch, they take mile then demand more while your regular base walks away in disgust.
 
Recap of the last 48 hours:
• Zack’s IndieGoGo reaches the 24hour time limit.
• Zack discovers and publicizes a private chat group on Facebook of comic store owners who were going to refuse to have the book even if a customer ordered it.
• Zack’s IndieGoGo blows up with support and has announcement of upcoming publication.
• Zack’s IndieGoGo reaches completion at $202K. • Announcement of publisher on livestream, revealed to be Antarctic Press.
• Immidiate meltdown from the SJW horde insues.
• Horde go all out in a harassment campaign against ‘Yaboi’ Zack and Antarctic Press.
• Mark Waid and all the usual SJW comic pros increase efforts in the harassment.
• After nearly 12-24 hours of harassment, Antarctic Press folds.
• Zack says it’s fine, they’re good people thinking about their employees.
• Zack’s IndieGoGo still up for orders.
• Zack announces in Livestream to make his own comics publisher, named Splatto Comics.

Anything missing?

Vox Day legitimately believes we should live in a mix between a race-based monarchy and a theocracy. He also believes that non-Anglos should be disenfranchised and/or deported from the US and that a Racial Holy War is both imminent and a good thing. I can't be arsed to plow through his entire blog to find an instance of him specifically saying "Free speech is bad because it makes the baby Jesus cry", but I do remember reading something by him arguing that non-Christian religions and works should be outlawed (or at least heavily penalized). He's a "free-speech-for-me" advocate, don't be fooled.
 
>he deleted his facebook after being caught implying people should harass a publisher to prevent a youtube randoms new comic book.

Didn't a very similar thing force him to delete his twitter many moons ago?

Waid realises that Facebook archive everything and that accounts are never really 'deleted' right? :optimistic:

Imagine if legal goes to ask them for evidence of his harassment...
 
All I can say about this is wow, watching this all go down on twitter was a rush. All these comic book giants having fucking defcon 1 spergouts over a literally who's graphic novel getting picked up by a press house. Christ almighty, what pathetic wastes of oxygen. Most people clock out and go to happy hour or some shit, these guys are calling up people to "STOP THE PRESSES REEEE THIS UNPERSON TRIED TO MAKE A THING"

I figured this guy was joking, because I just assumed you'd never see an SJW who worked in a trade. Literally everyone I've ever met who's a carpenter, an electrician, an automobile mechanic, etc., has been either indifferent to politics or pretty hard core right wing.

Bet money he's not hiring some obese pink hair with daddy issues to crawl through ducts somehow, though. Funny how that works.

Comics-wise, anyone recall how he was talking about how Jack Kirby would be working for him because the SJWs at Marvel would never hire him these days? After people pointed out that no, he probably wouldn't, he started shit-talking Kirby and saying he could beat him up (yeah, right).
