Let's not pretend that a comic that was supposed to be finished last Thanksgiving might finally get sent out August of the next year is some great accomplishment that proves all the naysayers wrong.
Given how the naysayers said that the book would never come out, they retroactively made it a great accomplishment that will prove them wrong. That's what happens when some people are so desperate to fling shit at EVS like autistic chimps. It elevates even marginal successes he achieves. If they had just stuck to "it's late hurr durr" then they wouldn't be getting egg on their face.
 
Nasser is and always has been a fucking idiot. One of the first things that sperglord did was yell a latenight line at C.B. Cebulski, BC wrote an article about it and he officially became "Nasser the harasser"
He has DM'ed and emailed every person in comics I'm surprised he hasn't showed up on the farms asking for money.
Ethan is wrong about the Cecil thing, Nasser got e-famous running gay ops and demanding people work for him for free because he is an entitled little bitch made ayrab.
I don't think Frog is gaslighting here, he actually believes it was the Cecil thing is the reason people like him. Before Ethan was autistic enough to give Nasser the platform he needed to eventually pull a Martin and scam Donal, Nasser was begging John Layman to draw his comic.
As an aside, I love how you just casually think we forgot that a few pages ago you were accusing Ethan of trying to rape Betty B. You painted a picture of a slavering monster who was literally trying to tear her skirt off while she screamed and ran for her life. Why haven't you confronted him about that since he showed up? Seems like if that was true it would be THE story of comicsgate, right?

Of course the answer could be that you're just much a tard as that Adam clown, but you just know how to spread out your spergery a little better.

The Arkansas hotel thing? I haven't forgot. Mitch reads this page maybe he will talk about the trip to the museum where they both acted like tards.

Yeah I've seen that video Ethan posted of those two goofs making fun of modern art at a museum too. It was quite funny. Seems we get our insider information from the same place, Ethan's channel!

Making fun of modern art (particularly abstract bullshit that looks like a welding accident) should be mandatory.
 
I love when people expect me to understand every lie Ethan has told and every bullshit thing he has done.
Nasser apparently tortures kittens for fun, Dave sim molests kids.
When it comes to Ethan's show I don't watch it. I don't want to hear about his pedophile buddies or creepy fuckers like Nasser who plenty of people have given their private information to thanks to Sleazy E and the spunky bunch on YT.

I heard about the hotel and the museum shit elsewhere, E posted it months after they actually went because Ethan was fucking up anyones crowdfund who didn't suck his dick.
"Watch IGG in real time" lol yeah mitch was super mad every time uncle faggot opened his mouth refunds came pouring in.
It's a fact Ethan doesn't honor requests for refunds, if he did the book would probably be cancelled.
I leave that loser alone because he finally finished the one thing he's capable of doing, drawing a comic book.

Sleazy E can fake knowledge all he wants the reason the black glove exists was everyone in comicsgate, every pro living in terror of Ethan Van Sciver. The Hitler of comics.

In my opinion, they dipped in quality over the past years...

But what exactly happened?

They were an offshoot/sub brand of DC. They got shuttered, same as Vertigo. I don't think people realize quite how fucked DC and Warner Brothers as a whole are right now. Everyone talks about it as a merger, but really Time Warner was purchased/absorbed by AT&T. The Penny Pinching CEO of AT&T has no real appreciation for arts and entertainment. He wants cuts and consolidation. All he cares about is bottom line. And the Time Warner and Warner Brothers execs are throwing anything and everything that doesn't have sufficient feudal protection to the wolves in order to save themselves. The former Turner properties are being gutted because they don't have anyone sufficiently powerful running interference for them. The mood is even grim at CNN. But Cartoon Network, TBS and TNT? It's a funeral. Especially the Atlanta offices. DC is facing a similar problem that Marvel faces under Disney, but without any of Marvel's built in systematic protections. Disney does not want to be a traditional "Publisher" of magazines or books. They kind of hate that they ended up with Marvel Comics. But it was necessary. And Disney is at heart an Media IP company. So they understand the need for Marvel in protecting and occasionally creating IP. They don't like it, but they feel they need it, so they wall it off in it's own little closet under the stairs and leave the idiots to fling shit at each other outside of their sight. But DC is in a bad place. Disney is at least an IP business so Marvel gets some protection. AT&T is not an IP business. And DC's WB superiors are likely seeking to use DC's IP's as a shield for themselves, while throwing the lower level companies under the bus. They are well and truly fucked.

I collected MAD mag for a while in the early 2000s till about mid-2010s. My dad mostly started sending me care packages with them every now and then but even they stopped coming at some point. I'd occasionally glance at one or two but I had no idea they were owned by DC/WB, when did this happen or has it always been this way?

The quality of the jokes seemed to have gone down, and I wouldn't be surprised if just the idea of magazines has gone away as well. In a way it's kind of relieving that they are dead, much like Vertigo... maybe it's for the best, since they are hardly what they used to be. Another victim of going-woke and going-broke.

Though on that note, MAD has always been able to get political, but they seemed to be able to poke fun at both sides, like a real neutral publication, as far as I've seen all it ever appears to be (much like Cracked) is one-sided. But, I'm willing to admit I have no real idea and can accept if this is completely wrong.
 
The Arkansas hotel thing? I haven't forgot. Mitch reads this page maybe he will talk about the trip to the museum where they both acted like tards.

So Mitch and Betty brought me out to Arkansas a couple of times as we were trying to figure out the best means to distribute ComicsGate books. Perhaps join forces and make a company. We had meetings with various people from magazine distribution, etc, but ultimately they wanted to combine all of our IPs and share rights, something I wasn't prepared to do. Plus, I don't think traditional magazine distribution is the best way to go in this market, so I bowed out.

I made a few videos from Arkansas that got your imagination spinning, I guess.

Let's neither pretend that the page count doubled, progress was regularly shared, and no one ever accused EVS of being a speedy deadline making artiste. "Where's the book Ethan?" At the fucking printers, that's where bitch.

I don't know why you feel the need to carry Ethan's water. Cyberfrog's release isn't the worst case scenario (book never finished, Ethan takes our money and moves to Montenegro), but it is the second-to-worst case scenario (book critically late, all momentum and good will lost, ZERO interest in #2).

Also, printers my ass. Unless he hired fucking Gutenberg to print this thing, it should've finished printing weeks ago.
 
Minor but Moondragon is bisexual. Wasn't sure if you meant that in that way but I could see people being mistaken about it considering her most notable love interest in recent times was Phyla. Phyla is a lesbian though unlike Heather who swings both ways.

Whoops. You're right. I forgot that in the Quasar series from 89 - 94 she was so obsessed with getting a ride on Wendell's dick that she made up a fake identity to get close to him.

Then again, with Marvel so keen to discard a character's past romances to retcon them as gay, I wouldn't be surprised if that never gets mentioned again or hand waved away.

She also raped Thor before after telepathically screwing with his head. Guess blondes are her weakness. Good times.....

Nasser has always been real fuckin weird and seems to have no clue as how to conduct oneself socially and was captured in Cecil's first stream with him ''Voight krampf test'. Maybe he was just nervous and trying to hard, maybe he's just an awkward nervous guy, but when you proudly start talking about how you tried to drown a cat... flags should be raised.
That stream reminded me that I didn't bother with Nasser's other book because of that superchat nonsense. You don't fuck with someone else's money no matter how small it is and him apparently not getting that irked the shit out of me.

Well he is showing stuff getting printed, so progress is happening. But for comparison, it took roughly a month for Bigfoot Bill to print and start shipping looking at the updates, so I guess it takes a while depending on what printers you use. @FROG Any status update on the books themselves?

No update, it's still at the printers!

And we'll see about interest for CYBERFROG: REKT PLANET. I think it's going to do great!

Oh I'm not gonna lie, I'm still somewhat miffed that it took around a year extra since I know that a lot of the delay was avoidable.

The difference is at the very least I'm getting it. I'm not AS inclined as supporting new projects made by @FROG because of the time slippage issue, but that it does get released and said delay also was because it became a bigger project in scope makes me at least open to future projects (like Rainbro Brute if it's akin to a Ron Howard book like the visuals give me the vibes of). As of right now, I'm probably the most likely to buy anything that Yaboi makes (so long as he has a decent artist to be fair), since he's been good at feedback, delivery, and while he had delays he always told you why.

This is opposed to some other projects I've backed, which seem to be in a morass of fucking up either due to underestimating the budget, interpersonal shrieking, or just due to creative laziness seemingly.

Which project was creatively lazy? The only one I can think of is Bigfoot Bill, which uses a lot of recycled ideas from Creature Tech. But it was well crafted including with the packaging.
 
I just remembered something I meant to mention. I really hate the new name for Reignbro Brute. Just "ReignBro" (or is it "RainBro" now?) is like a song without a resolution. It just kinda hangs there. Not a fan. I don't see how removing Brute makes it "safer" copyright-wise.
