The last major thing I heard of Cridious was him quietly complaining about being extorted by WarCampaign for associating with "enemies" and Indiecron during EVS' "THE FALL OF ROME" livestream. Since then he's been quietly escorted into the CG memory hole.


In other news, Mike Miller has debuted his latest project, 'THE MAGANIFICENT SEVEN" consisting of all the Fox News pundits he likes in an exciting new combination of superheroes and political parody, capitalizing on the hot fresh trend of Donald Trump in the year of our Lord 2020. If this doesn't strike you as a wise decision in of itself, Miller made sure to tag pundit heroes like Donald Trump, Tucker Carlson and Ben Shapiro with this image of some sort of sex dungeon involving an obese naked balding man with a giant robot cock/sump pump coming out of his navel sitting on top of a cage filled with captive children. The man bears a not unpassing resemblance to Ethan (barring the thumbs), I must say. He is currently asking in his project announcment thread how to chance the embedded image.

At first I thought Ethan's lecturing Mike that he knew what was for Mike's own good better than he did was the actions of a domineering and abusive "friend", but Miller is really going out of his way to prove EVS right these days.

This looks more retarded and embarrassing as that one comic that made FOX news anchors heroes against a dystopian Dem World. Like this is actively shit, and I will not touch this or his books if he thinks this is something actually good.
 
Ethan has his moments of extreme exceptionalism, but at least his and his select few friends do well on their campaigns. Narwhal opened his campaign last night and is sitting at 10k already. Ethan knows how to push comics. Mike and Edwin don't.

This baby has two left on the shelf, after ordering two copies... "Political cartoons are the future" - Mike probably

This just shows how low a bar 'success' to these people is.
 
So, in case anyone hasn’t checked on the Expendables campaign in the past couple of days, it’s reached 100k. Quicker than most campaigns we’ve seen.

Zack added a chromium cover tier with some excellent art by Kyle Ritter. However, some people in the comments are pretty pissed. Several people who backed the tier to get “All 5” covers are now being left out on the additional cover. It’s an interesting development.

I’m not particularly fond of campaigns with a ton of covers and generally appreciated the simplicity of Zack’s earlier campaigns. That said, I can understand him wanting to church it up a little when he’s working on one of his dream properties. He just needs to be more careful to avoid logistical missteps like this going forward.

This is a big one for him. Its like getting to go from the minors to the majors with a licensed property.

Around CG

Richard's been busy. He states later in another video he got clap back for his assertion. Hate to say it, but they're right. The only comparable product is trade sales and those are hard to pin because what do you go by, monthly sales? Lifetime? Some campaigns never end.

Doug has been doing a bunch of snore streams. They let EWJ on Kickstarter. Mike and that guy Cecil impersonates was on the stream. Wonder if Doug could help him get on KS, since wasn't Mike rejected by for being a bad person or something?

It clearly depict and sumerize what CG has become in the eye of casuals or normal people, and how Zach Feels about it, Being the old frail Lady that is too polite and uncomfortable with the bunch of assholes and retards CG is, and standing on her side watching it from a distance, too gentle and polite to just tell them the way it is but at the same time, feeling increasingly unwell and scared. Like, you better act like a gentle person around them or you fear their stupidity could actually get out of control and harm you.

What he says about going live on these cg channels and feeling out of his scope / not in his element because of the overall behavior is pretty revealing too.

Kudos to the artist who drew AOC's tits like that. I'd buy that.
 
Just saw the Maganificent Seven page. Dean Cain is still a draw? I didn't even know he was still alive.
 
Ya Boi got around to reviewing Narwhal's Earthbound comic. He seems baffled yet oddly excited about Narwhal's style. I had actually forgotten I got this one too. It's very sloppy, but it has great coloring and he's good at displaying motion. He definitely has promise, just needs to work on his art more and not draw like he doing speedruns.

Also Chuck Dixon talks about how he got the Expendables deal going

Insane how this all fell together. Wonder how dynamite is taking this?

I agree Narwhal needs a little polish on his art style, but I've also got a soft spot for simplistic style in an indy comic, I'm way more lenient than on a MARVEL, DC, Dark Horse, Image title where you have someone who looks like they spat it out after a week. I agree he's good at displaying emotions or "acting" so, who knows where he'll end up.

As for Expendables, who needs Stallone and Dixon when you have Dean Cain.

From the sounds of things, Sly is more interested in Dixon than any particular publisher. I wouldn’t be surprised if Dynamite, among others, begin tripping over themselves to offer Chuck work.
 
What's going on with Fan Advocacy network? It seems that some Cg members (Andrew and donal he named) are defaming him and he's pursuing legal action, im pretty out of the loop of the issue since I'm not on Twitter.

Looks like this little screengrab popped up and now people are piling on him with accusations and F.A.M is calling it fake. I don't know enough about the sperg to say if it's actually real or fake, but I'm leaning towards fake as well. Good luck actually suing someone over this though. It totally won't be a complete waste of time and money
