#Comicsgate - The Culture Wars Hit The Funny Books!

I'm not sure how the comments section of one of Zack's videos is the place for that though. I would've deleted it too.
I actually agree, at least to an extent. But if he wants to stay above it all, that's where he should have ended it, by removing Nasser's comment. Except he didn't end it there. He then he went onto his YouTube "Community" tab and posted this passive-aggressive nonsense.

Nobody forced him to do that. And isn't this sort of vague not naming, just saying business a tactic of those dreaded Ess-Jay-Dubyas in the first place? Swear I've seen him bitch about how they'll either not name him at all, or very specifically call him "Richard C. Meyer" over and over. Yet here he is, doing just that. The former, not the latter, obviously.

On top of everything else, he doesn't seem to understand the most basic facts of the situation. Nasser could be lying/misleading us all, I guess, but Donal seems to be in no big rush to post receipts, either.
 
His expenses estimate has $6K for the script though, Nasser you didn't get that did you?

Btw @Rupin your reply to me has mysteriously vanished but I did see it.
No, I did not get one cent for the script.

I also posted a breakdown here before of the expenses. It's not letting me quote that post here for some reason so here's a screen shot if anyone body wants to just go back to that date to read it.

I backed “Brutas” but never got it (same with Zack’s “Iron Sights: 2 Psychos”) because I had moved by the time they were fulfilled. My general feeling towards all CG and crowdfunding is fairly negative. I mostly like the anti-SJW drama. Comics are for children and retarded grown-ups.
 
Supported Zack for years. Now he deletes my comments. F.

I have to side with Zack on this one. He is not into CG drama only going after twitter SJWs. As you can see, Zack rarely interacts with anybody CG outside of Ethan. And this thing with Donal Delay, we get it. He stole from you but, there’s really nothing anybody can or wants to do about it since he is still getting work. So basically, he is living in your head rent free and laughing while you are attracting negative attention to yourself.

Just take this as a lesson learned and focus on growing your own brand instead of trying to hurt Donal’s. He‘s already doing that with how insanely late Cash Grab is.

Loyalty shouldn't only run up hill. Dickie Meyers shouldn't delete comments. That sort of shit was what he complained about for two years.

Nassar cries about Donal stealing his lunch money on here all the time and we haven't deleted him. :lol:

"I got dragged in..."

Really? *sigh*

For four fucking years you dragged people into your drama, kneelin Zach.

Isn't shekels for the "script" what Nasser is/was looking for, though? Kudos to RCM for paying whoever wrote his, but this seems to be RCM at his most weirdly out of touch.

edit: Ninja'd. oh, well.

No, I believe they had a profit sharing gig. Unfortunately.

I'm not sure how the comments section of one of Zack's videos is the place for that though. I would've deleted it too.

Naaahh. Richard is on record bitching about censoring comments on sites/messageboards. Nassar can post whatever he wants, so can Donal.

Both can fuck off.
 
So Nasser is owed at least $6000 plus the equivalent of the personal expenses Donal took out to buy a computer, correct? I understand Zack wanting to stay out of this shit-flinging contest, but surely he doesn't condone someone being outright robbed. I understand that Nasser has sort of been persona non grata in CG for a couple of years now, but the fact that people turn a blind eye to how scummy Donal has been and continue to give him work is truly astonishing to me. His art is solid, but the dude is a piece of shit. Also fat.

It's more complicated than that.

From what I understand:

* Nassar and Donal had shared ownership. Translates to 50% ownership. 50% risk, 50% profit. This means...

* Donal owes Nassar only half the profit after the campaign. This is where the rub comes in...

* Donal I think stated that the campaign didn't make any money after costs. If this is the case, Nassar gets nothing because no profit.

* The problem is, Brutas netted A little under 40,000 dollars. Even assuming two-thirds of that was wasted, Kiwi brothers check the math, that leaves five to six grand a piece for Donal and Nassar to pocket.

* Hence you see the problem. Going through the legal recourse would eat up money that Donal is acting like isn't there. Either Donal legit wasted all the profits or he found a way to spend them to his benefit i.e. stealing them.

I understand Zack wanting to stay out of this shit-flinging contest, but surely he doesn't condone someone being outright robbed.

Eh, I don't. Wasn't everyone supposed to be outraged and care when Mark Waid called Antarctic? Wasn't everyone supposed to cry havoc as SJWs called him a Nazi or insulted him?

Either you believe people should care when they see something wrong happen or you don't. But in Richard C Meyers case he's a hypocrite if he whines after four years of expecting and having strangers care about him being mistreated.

I understand that Nasser has sort of been persona non grata in CG for a couple of years now, but the fact that people turn a blind eye to how scummy Donal has been and continue to give him work is truly astonishing to me. His art is solid, but the dude is a piece of shit. Also fat.

Well. Nassar left and I've previously shared the Passion of Nassar video. Ethan came up with a solution but by then it was too late. To be fair, Nassar handled things very poorly at the time and Donal took to that grudge like he would some cake.
 
Some dumb poet got cancer because poetry is for suicidal teenage girls. Some Galaxy Brain made took the tweet that got her canceled and applied it widely, I guess to prove everyone and everything is gay?
 
KF isn't letting me reply to @jspit2.0 for some reason, but anyways I did forget about the profit split deal that they had going on. So if neither of them took a page rate, Zack's estimate of a $3,000 loss actually turns into a $15,000 profit by his calculations. So Nasser is owed around $7,500 if those numbers are correct. In any case, Donal needs to either pay up or start showing some receipts as to how this money was actually spent. We already know he's a proven liar from when he said people were receiving books before he had actually started shipping, so there's absolutely no reason to believe all of the profits of the book were actually spent out of necessity.

Also, he must have made a pretty decent paycheck off of Cash Grab, right? That book did over $250k. I don't know how generous Cecil was with bonuses, but how can Donal possibly be short of the money he owes Nasser? There's only so much pizza even Donal can eat. I'm not in the business of counting others' money, but this loser needs to come clean about what's going on here.
 
Meyer does bring up unrelated creator drama when reviewing books like when he talked about Aubrey Sitterson's 9/11 incident from 2017 while reviewing Beef Bros. How is that more relevant to address than a ongoing dispute that actually changed the story of a project? He should be a big boy and just admit that he doesn't want to talk about CG drama (that doesn't effect him) specifically instead of constantly dancing around it like a coward whenever something comes up
 
I'm not fond of Comicsgate outside of them melting down. But my value has always been this: If you turn off your comments, you're a pussy.

You have the right to do it, sure, but you're still a pussy.
 
@Unverified Weird KF won't let you reply to Jspit2.0, because now it won't let me click reply to your post.
There's a strange bug that's cropped up that may or may not have something to do with post length, apparently. The mods are aware of it, but nothing is going to happen until @Null is back from vacation. The DDoSing trannies probably aren't helping site stability, either.

Any money from cash grab is irrelevant. Nassar is only owed Brutas money, technically.

So, Nassar's drama over something two years old sparked allot of internet autism.

Kneelin' Zach

The Simple One did the unthinkable and actually reviewed a comic. Never fear, the video was only six minutes long.


* As detailed above, Nassar took this opportunity on a major CG channel drawing attention to him to complain about very old and well trodden drama about Donal not paying Nassar.

Simple Zach than proceeded to delete the comment. Because he would have loved someone doing that to him back when he was on message boards and twitter, right?

1630951148539.png


After catching some blowback to his cowardice, Simple Zach complained and then 'solved' the problem...

1630951203456.png


As a side bar, this is why Nassar will forever be lesser. You should have taken the opportunity to ingratiate yourself, promote your works, and expand awareness of you. Instead you brought drama and trouble.

This spun out as Nassar doubled down on his own stream.

Nassar Wah!


Nassar launched a three hour live stream where various CG drama shit collided. First, Nassar has brought @FROG on the stream. This was likely a mistake as anything Simple Zach does not matter how hypocritical will be excused or glossed over.


* At the 22 minute mark, Nassar comes to the Simple One's shoddy math that this campaign took 42,000 dollars to fulfill. :lol:

* Quickly they transition to crying about Mike, because why actually talk about anything else. *sigh*

* After twenty, boring minutes of worthless crying about how Mike Miller said mean things about gays or whatever JDA comes on and drops the second layer of streamer drama, that he's been 'cancelled'. In this instance JDA was not, in fact cancelled. While he is cancelled, my understanding is cancelling means ending a person's ability to work in the 'mainstream.' What did happen was Jon's artist for Flying Sparks dropped him and blocked him on social media. This is a huge, actually current happening. Which is why it's important to rehash a campaign from two years ago.

* They move to stream about Liam Grey's auctioning of his CG books. This is where the third layer layer of drama comes in. TestifyHD comes in at the urging of Jon and Frog.

* In the last year, the lesser CG channels have been in a kind of War of the Tards. Various others have chronicled this extremely gay slapfight. It essentially boils down to a bunch of Warcampaigners (Etsys) who were kicked out for being to retarded for WC having a mini Civil War. Former WCTestify claimed WCStewpendous was a pedo. This led to smaller YT taking sides, with Dean, Vikki, and Nassar all lining up with Stewpendenous. Testefy followed up this stunning betrayal on Vikki's part by claiming she and Dean were resurrecting Warcampaign. Note, none of this is established and all extremely gay.

* The stream goes for almost an hour with a vicious, gangbang on Liam's pathetic, orange corpse, then Vikki shows up. She uses Testify's real name around the 1:47 mark. For his part, Testify immediately starts frothing at the mouth, only for Nassar to immediately boot him. Ethan and company signal that they far prefer Vikki to Testify. She declines as she has to go on her own show, more later, and the crew proceed to get wasted EFAPing Liam for an additional hour before Frog drops out.

Deuling Sparks???

* At this point Nassar ends his stream since Ethan is gone and he needs to go to bed. JDA is still interested in drinking and tea bagging the corpse of Liam's career and starts his own stream.


* At the same time, Vikki and Dean are running their show.


* This is where the War of the Tards comes in. Nassar is no longer able to kick Testify, who JDA isn't going to boot. Nassar quickly dips out. Thus we lose two year old Donal drama because Nassar 'has to go to bed.' Meanwhile, Testify has been banned from the D&V chat.

* Testify immediately starts in on Dean and Vikki, but doesn't really get to the good part until after the 31 minute mark. After declaring that 'yellow is the new orange' they proceed to have Thomas Roilup on the show! Ordinarily there isn't a problem. But wasn't one of the gripes Dean/Vikki had with Doug him and others calling CG a cult? Why is it okay when Thomas does it on their stream at the 53:39 mark?

* JDA groans at this, but pivots back to his artist ditching him.

At this point things die down on the streams. The War of the Tards marches on with both sides struggling under mountains of hypocrisy.

I agree when people turn off comments to prevent criticism of themselves. This is different.

Zack turned them off because some fucking autistic retard can't shut the fuck up about the $2000-3000 he believes he's owed for some comic he wrote four years ago. Video creators are responsible for moderating their comments section. Sure, Zack could do nothing and potentially let his channel get struck because of the personal attacks and unverified claims you were making towards Donal in your comment, but why would he or, really, why would anybody do that for you? You could have settled this years ago with a lawsuit. And before you a bloo bloo about legal fees, a SMALL CLAIMS suit costs like $100. Unrepresented people sue each other for pittances like this all the time.

But no. Instead of doing something that would actually help you and get results, you choose instead to impotently spam your bullshit everywhere hoping that Ethan or someone will influence will take up your cause and get you the pittance you believe you're entitled to. FUCK YOU, Nassar. Stop being a worthless little crybaby bitch, nut up and sue Donal or shut the fuck up already.
 
I think the main takeaway from all this, that even Zack would agree on, is that that Donal owes Nasser $6K, as costed in Zack's costing.

Come on @Fathead, stop being a disgusting shame on ComicsGate, and restore peace to the kingdom for the measly/princely* sum of $6K (depending on your circumstances)

Nasser did a good job, Brutas has been well-received! Just think how nice this whole situation could have been, had you paid him the $6K owed to him for his work.

I wouldn't even have this avatar, if you weren't such a disgusting thief! I would have a Liam avatar instead.

Fuck it, he should just offer him the other 50% of Brutus in exchange for dropping all claim to the campaign's dividends. Donal's not hard up for work, he's got AllCAPs and Cecil projects lined up. Brutas is dead due to divided rights, which I'm sure pleases no one considering this is the most positively reviewed thing Nassar's ever put out and is a major feather in Donal's cap.
