The problem with Jim Zub is that, despite his positive attitude towards readers, his writing is thoroughly mediocre. I read his Avengers: No Road Home #5 (co-written with Mark Waid) since it was the first appearance of Conan in the 616 Marvel Universe, and the book was trash. He just needs to improve since his writing is dull. I can’t attribute the mediocrity of the book to Waid since up until the most recent issue (which also had a co-writer), Waid’s run of Doctor Strange has been excellent.

It's not a big deal but Marvel's old Conan comics were 616 to begin with. It left a funny void in the magical corner of 616 when they couldn't name drop things established in the Conan comics. Not an issue now of course but if anyone told you it was the first time Conan was 616 then they got their info wrong.

And the tumblrinas never buy shit. They shoplift it or pirate it because they are a culture of thieves and Communists. Why would you expect these people ever to buy anything?

I don't think that it really has anything to do with Communisim and the like. There just aren't that many of them in absolute numbers. 500 or so active people supported by the mainstream can create image like they are the future, but 500 sales does not mean much. That plus there is lots and lots of material targeting them. Most people (SJW or not) can't afford to buy so many comics each month so they pick and chose and that low number of sales gets divided into even smaller numbers. Things like Saga sold (and collected editions are still selling great if I'm not mistaken) because pretty much everyone on the left bought them, but Champions? Thats probably not even in top 20 for most of them.
 
People are receiving their BigFoot Bill books. Looks great, can't wait for my copy.

Martina made Tim Pool's video again. He seems to like her.


I was really hoping to see a Nerkish face-paint photo in the video, but alas, no luck.

Martina is damn sexy all around. First time I heard of her I thought she was Russian, cause of her name and being a GI Joe fan, she reminded me of Baroness. So, Russian came to mind

And in one of the comicgates streams, she said, she dated guys younger than her and her fiancé is younger than her.
So, yeah, she knows she is hot and can get any man she wants, and she wants young hot guys
But I don't blame her.
If I was a hot guy I would do the same, get hot young guys.......I mean hot young chicks
 

Eating your own shit is INHERENTLY political. Politics, the 5th fundamental force of nature. All that is, will be, or never was are bound by it. There is no escape from the realm of the almighty, there is only politics.

I am convinced that SJWs are so obsessed with far left politics that they would argue that Peanuts is a far left anti-war allegory because Franklin once said to Charlie Brown his dad fought in the Vietnam War.

It can drive me up the wall because no one ever means "inherent" when they say "inherent". They just go on about their perspective and call it "inherent". Sometimes you get called obtuse for allegedly ignoring the cultural influences which are " inherently political".

Jesus, I haven't thought of him in months. When Pope Van Sciver I issues that Bull of Excommunication you seem to get memory holed quite thoroughly, don't you?

He stopped doing his regular roast vids, which were way better than his Nerkish Tonight. he Insane Clown Posse hurt his branding. They were like spergier Warcampaign only they would roll with Renfamous when convenient which is never a good look. Even people not associated with CG were starting to see them as retards.

Of course, because nothing can ever be simple fun in their eyes. The miserable pricks absolutely hate the idea of fun.

There always were a lot of unknowns in the Peanuts world. Like how we never see what's inside snoopy's doghouse, or how we can't understand what adults are actually saying. I think these unknowns add a lot to Peanuts, and might've been designed to never be answered in full.
That said, I do think the fact that we're sitting here discussing Schultz's characters all these years later is a real badge of honor for him as a creator and it's due to the strength of the characters he brought to life, not whatever headcannon-esque bullshit troons are using to write off their worldview. It's like stolen valor, you know?

That's the one! IIRC she was kinda tsundere for ol' Chuck and bossy, too.

So Ren is trying her hands at writing, guess we'll see how that goes. Oddly though, she's plugging it on her alt account and not the main one. What's the matter, talked all that shit and now you're worried your account will get flagged again mid-shilling?

Edit: She's on twitter timeout again

That's bait. Plainly bait, they're trying to get YaBoi/EVS's attention for this project. Just ignore it, although I know EVS will pounce on it the moment he finds out.
