Time for another Comicsgate News Update!

FROM INDIEGOGO
Ethan VanSciver, more affectionately known as @FROG, recently passed the $1,000,000 mark on his second outing of Cyberfrog. The large influx of sales was likely due to the addition of two PVC collectibles added to the campaign. Rekt Planet is now officially the second largest crowdfunded comic in history, only slightly behind Order of Stick at $1,254,120. With Warcampaign out of the picture and Ethan appearing more amicable towards other disillusioned fans, perhaps OTS will be usurped in the coming months.

Everybodies favorite best boi, Zack, recently unveiled the Sashi pinup poster that would accompany his third Jawbreakers entry: Grand Bizarre. Zack claims that this character "Azaz" is crucial to the Jawbreakers universe, but neglected to reveal why, I guess we'll have to read to find out. He also announced in the same update that PANdemic and the Ballad of No would be closing on July the 17th. Kiwi's considering backing either of those two books have a little over two weeks to do so.

Sean Gordon Murphy also revealed new set of stretch goals after hitting his last target which expanded his book "The Plot Holes" from 144 to 160 pages. These new goals include upgrades to all versions of the book at 190K and dinner dates for 5 lucky backers at 200K, I wonder if Brian Visaggio will be joining them for dinner?

And everybodies favorite punching bag/perpetual victim Jon Del Arroz recently took some shots at his eternal enemy Ethan in an update to Rekt Manlet. Jon had been experiencing issues with finding a reliable printer for his ashcan, which while remedied he couldn't help but snipe at @FROG. The return of JDA and Ethan's slap fighting will be a common theme of this particular news bulletin.

FROM THE TWITTERVERSE
Continuing with tonight's top story of Jon and Ethan's eternal arguing, @FROG recently took a giant shit on Jon's latest indie project "The Cosmic Warrior."

It's rare that this reporter agree's with @FROG about anything, but in this case he's not wrong. The art, coloring and dialogue are all equally terrible. Ethan however didn't give Jon long to defend himself, before the worlds greatest hispanic voice in science fiction found himself blocked.

The latest twitter drama appears to be the backlash against Adam Post and his "design choices" over the sequel to his first comic College of the Dead.

Post appears to not take criticism well, insulting George Gatsis for his own work.

However kiwifarms own and investigative journalist @VIkkiVerse wasn't going to let this latest scandal slide.

Adam Post did porn comics? Vikki slide into my DM's if you know more about these "porn comics"... for ah journalistic, academic purposes I assure you.. :christine:

FROM YOUTUBE
Preston Poulter aka @PocketJacks recently announced that he was connecting neophyte creators with comic book artists in a networking endeavor to help them get their projects off the ground.

For those not in the know, Poulter is currently running a comic creation contest, with a grand prize of $2000 going to the winner. Contestants must first pitch a character, then a 10 page script and the winner will gain the cash to put towards creating their comic project. Several familiar faces have already pitched including Thomas Roilup, Darth Lunga and Mecha McCheese. The first round of contestant pitches can be found below, the next round takes place in several weeks.

This reporter wishes all contestants good luck in the competition (except Lunga) who appears to have already rage quit and pulled out.

Continuing with the Preston Poulter theme; the amazing, the spectacular, the terrific, the great one, the peoples champion, your host The Hut recently released a video claiming that perpetual nobody and possible aids carrier DarkGift Comics would be challenging Poulter's claim to the Comicsgate trademark.

Further investigation reveals that Bleeding Cool also recently covered this story, however it slipped under the radar.

Fresh after being covered by Just Some Guy, Jon Del Arroz addresses the recent accusations against Sean Gordon Murphy by Brian Visaggio and other #metoo accusations plaguing the comics industry.

And finally your old buddy Rorshach talks about Tom King's comic pledge against abuse in the industry after recent allegations against Cameron Stewart and Warren Ellis.

That's all the news for now, obviously the #metoo and Adam Post stories take front and center. Adam Post's fuck up is the second from a Comicsgate creator this past week, after @Wenger's ziplock bag debacle. The other big news stories included Chuck Wendig being #metoo'd courtesy of @5t3n0g0ph3r and @Elwood P. Dowd and of course the revelation that Donal Delay was formerly in a cucked relationship with his ex-wife courtesy of yours truly, @CapeKnight and @Yuusha-sama.

Special thanks also goes to @Analog Devolved for finding Donal's former cuck comics and bringing them to the threads attention. Well done! :drink:

Those were just warmups @Newman's Own, to prepare you for Roadwarrior Drake


Launched by "alazmat arts" (~650 subscribers) Roadwarrior Drake hems closely to the concept of Frog's Cyberfrog in that both characters are throwbacks from the 90s who are anthropomophic edgelord protagonists that beat up bad people. And as Cyberfrog: Rekt Planet has hit one million dollars in crowdfunding, the logic that some of that success could be bestowed on Roadwarrior Drake is hard to deny, if you remove the idea of craft or ability from the equation.


Welcome to Skullkill, a near dead city, on the other side of an apocalyptic overrun by The Street Warriors, a network of gangs with odd abilities, overseeing an enterprise of sales of a deadly new drug called Romerum, nicknamed Sparkplug, that turns its addicts into numb and mindless zombies.

The trailer opens "endorsements" from random cheap online prostitutes, like a nameless dumpy black woman in a cocktail dress and Nick Rekeita, that are captured with a smartphone because the creator does not know how to capture video feed any other way. It then progresses to an animated sequence that cannot be described, only experienced, set to a poem written by Rosetta Allen with guitars by Dark Gift Comics and vocals by some random girl gamer. Something of the production process of the comic is laid out, as inked work is torn out of a 4 x 6" sketchbook and then loaded onto a scanner.

I've been struggling for a term to describe this group of very special individuals but this has made me settle on the term "Cargo Cult Comicsgate".


They also had a launch stream, which deserves something of a writeup of its own as alazmat inexplicably invited Testefy-HD with "Soy Rage" in tow, who proceeded to immediately hijack the show and demand the host share insulting memes targerted towards Frog and Anna (which Alazmat accedes to) while screaming over everyone, taking the piss out of the trailer as it plays, attacking the fellow panelists, so on. Alazmat's one move is a low-grade SJW bait about how he's a "marginalized person" and anything against him should be taken as racist that he falls back on several hundred times, but Testefy only respond to this by agreeing with his assessment and doubling down by cracking jokes about how the host/project runner is a stupid mexican.

















A truly exceptional campaign launch.

The usual suspects are ready to cancel whoever it is based off of this allegation. One tweet to destroy a persons life based on the always trustworthy and never wrong word of a black person. We all know black people never lie or commit crimes. This 15 year old atrocity is clearly worth a public lynching of this white devil.

Adam Post is on stream with @FROG right now. Expect damage control.

EDIT:
Ethan sells the idea that giving him money is "defeating evil". But it's totally not a money grubbing cult.
🙄

Aw, it's definitely a cult, but "defeating evil" is a phrase we picked up from the Icarus and the Sun guy, who beat CYBERFROG BLOODHONEY and announced he'd "defeated the evil."

Now, everytime we reach some kind of landmark in funding, we call it "defeating the evil." It's just for fun.

Aw no. Not the Autistic and Dumb emojis again.

BTW, we roasted Adam Post alive last night for his book. There's no damage control. If people fuck up, I make fun of them, and then they end up here with you guys like Nasser did.

Don't get it twisted, Eric (:smug:), Nasser had DMs that showed your own hypocrisy and lies. He didn't end up here because you made fun of him, but that you're a bitchmade faggot who ended up here on your own to have this entire thread be over 1K all about how much of a faggot and failure you are that we're still sitting here making fun of you.

There we go, much closer to the reality of the situation.

And even without my edits, it's still a clear case on why I compare you with Carl Benjamin; he also loved trying to use what he thought were easy targets to hide his failings and shit behavior.

I guess I'd argue that the value comes from the story and art, the actual fun content of the comic book, rather than the squarebound spine.

But, I still make these comics shine! Absolutely beautiful presentation with all of my books, which is why I'm leading the way in crowdfunded comics!

If that was a legitimate way to approach comics prices Watchmen would be $5000 and Cyberfrog would be in a 10 cent book, but an alright colorist can only get you so far...

It's not "getting" pathetic.

And he'll keep coming back. His ego demands it.

I watched enough to see your "roast" Ethan. It was definitely damage control.

but "defeating evil" is a phrase we picked up from the Icarus and the Sun guy
Ethan you and I both understand the power of language and repetition, especially on small minds like Micah's, Dark Gift, Rosetta and/or the paypigs in your pen. They honestly believe that giving you money somehow "defeats evil" because you keep saying so. These window lickers aren't exactly Rhodes Scholars. They believed you when you said it wasn't SJW to cancel your own friends for perceived "homophobia". If you told them that SGM was a witch they'd join the moral panic on that too. "EVSCG fighting "SJWs" by kicking out Christian creators because they want to opt out of your LARPing Pride parade."

Your pigs are pathetic.

@Mister Dongs was right. He could adapt Post's trash fire comic to film with $500 dollars and put out a more customer friendly product than Post to boot. And there's nothing original about it. Post said it was original because no one has done zombies on a college campus. But if Post's statement were accurate it still wouldn't be true because changing the setting of a story based on an overdone concept doesn't make it original. It's like saying an alien invasion idea is original because this time it's set in Philly.

And Post's statement wasn't accurate.

1593623127041.png1593623223351.png1593623254835.png1593623422975.png

What passes for originality in your fan club/Heavens Gate is beyond retarded. I suppose you thought your alien invasion story line was original because the aliens are hive creatures. And I suppose you never read Ender's Game or saw Independence Day, Starship Troopers or a million knock offs of the idea.

If you had actually roasted Post he wouldn't still be talking about how he did this book right when it is so clearly a fuck up of epic proportions.

You sounded like you were begging when you "advised" Post not to do a six panel grift again. I did laugh out loud there I admit.

Does anyone outside your fucktard circle take you losers seriously? ComicsGate has been reduced to a couple of thousand of the dumbest comics fans on the planet, a couple thousand more similarly handi-capable Star Wars fans and a few "creators" who couldn't scrape together a concept approaching originality if their lives depended on it.

Keep up the good work @FROG . It is funny as Hell watching your sycophants circle the wagons to protect Post from legit criticism about his feces tier offering especially when it's WarCampaign (your last cult) rightly shitting on this trash fire comic from a guy who claims he's been publishing funny books since the 90's.

Damn - these clout chasers are so desperate, they're just tossing in names before they're even mentioned!

ProTip to reinoe: Bendis has black kids. Do more research beforehand. Points for aiming high, though.

He has an adoptive black daughter.

I looked at the top talent in the major companies, y'know, the guys who are supposed to be selling comics.

Over at DC, there's Heather Antos' bitch, Scott Snyder.

In the last month he's

retweeted an access media tool taking swipes at Dean Cain

About Trump

Allot


That was a day of Scott Snyder's tweets. But it wasn't all crass politics from an account where he very prominently associates himself with DC properties. He did say, I shit you not, that being black is a good way to get hired.


This is DC's big talent ladies and gentlemen. But hey, it's not as if every book he's writing that isn't drawn by Greg Capullo sells like shit...right?

Al Ewing very prominently ties himself to Marvel, just like Snyder. I wonder what his feed looks like...

Retweets someone named 'abolish the police' and that capitalism is disgusting."

Brexit, which is British political something or another...

There is one mention of his overhyped Hulk run in the last week.


I was curious. Because comics youtube is acting like the old comics industry has died. It hasn't. It's becoming more Darwinian, with less spots for purse puppies. But the comic book industry that the actual readership rallied into comicsgate to protest against is still there doing the same shit. They aren't going to clean up, they aren't going away unless DC and Marvel's corporate owners shut down the entire comic division.

Adam Post is a scumbag retard. Even Jeff Hicks actually filled his shitty Star Wars fanzine pages with actual story and art, trash level as it may be. Mandy filled her book with primary school level art and CG bath water.

Post straight up refused to fill his pages with actual comics content. He says 6 panel pages are where it's at. He's laughing at Ethan's fans for buying his shit book and not having the stones to get pissed off while he fucks them over because he's still in Ethan's good graces.

christ almighty! What is that? so much wasted paperspace. Was he going for some kind of weird koma style format in this book? I mean damn, he could’ve at least shown someone outside of his family the proof before he thought That releasing this shit would be a good idea...

But if Post's statement were accurate it still wouldn't be true because changing the setting of a story based on an overdone concept doesn't make it original. It's like saying an alien invasion idea is original because this time it's set in Philly.
The entire reason for the popularity of zombie flick, starting with Night of the Living Dead, was the appeal of being able to make films without needing money, skilled actors or a good script; that's why countless zombie B-movies are made every year. This idea of Post's that people interested in making a zombie movie (literally anyone with a bag of weed, halloween makeup and a camcorder) are going to pay him a substantial sum to turn College of the Living Dead, the creative equivalent of a gray meatloaf made up of worn 1980s college and zombie movie cliches, is ridiculous, even if the sales pitch wasn't incompetently made at a glance.

Dan Fraga is sitting right next to Post and he's had over a decade of experience making storyboards for film and animation, but somehow I doubt he's stupid enough to try and give Black Flag a 6-panel storyboard treatment instead of the comic his backers paid him for.

Mostly this is frustrating because for a while I thought Post contributed some sort of industry knowledge that could benefit Comicsgate as a whole; nope, turns out 30 years of professional experience and randos like Ro Kabir and TUG are better at publishing than Adam Post.

This isn't news.

ComicsGate failed to change the mainstream industry as far back as 2017 but certainly by spring of 2018 it was obvious. Then the movement shifted to the idea of becoming "the change they wanted to see" with Meyer, FROG and a movement putting out their own books to outshine the big two.

With some noteable exceptions that has been a colossal failure. No one cares about CyberFraud other than the dwindling pack of paypig cultists that religiously tune in to EVS's bloviation hour. Everyone else is trying to survive on his table scraps.

Talented people who walked away or were pushed out of the fold have done alright for the most part but they won't be changing the world either.

The "culture war" against mainstream SJW's ruining comics failed utterly long ago. ComicsGate and ex-CG is now just a small strange corner in a dying industry. There won't be a renaissance when all the woke losers who've lost their Big Two and indy gigs move to KickStarter either. Some will do okay but most will fail and the ones who succeed won't make a big enough dent to revive comics either.

Maybe Ethan is on the right track. At least he's cashing in by squeezing his pigs for as much cash short term as possible before the popcorn fart that is what's left of the comics industry dissipates with the gentle breeze it's to fragile to endure.

Nobody is gonna "save comics" unless they figure out a way to get them in the hands of children cheaply and that's just not going to happen.
