Like comicsgate and gamergate fags don't latch onto any industry personnel rhey can. See Mark Kern, Brad Wardell, etc. Boycott and divestment campaigns are literally what cg and gg are about.
Is it more entertaining than watching Sarkeesian explaining how games are sexist?
Or, more precisely, obviously the people who paid Sarkeesian were, like, OK this is mindnumbingly boring shit, but I feel like I'm a good person for fighting against sexism. When you read your mindnumbingly boring shit, are you going to be, well, at least I'm a good person for fighting against the oppression of mindnumbingly boring shit in comics industry?
Diversity & Comics, a Youtuber who reviews comics with low effort videos consisting of him sitting in his car or closet using his phone to film a book in his lap while making dad jokes and coughing constantly has absolutely terrified the comics industry.
One of their regular attacks is to say that he can only criticize. They dared him to make his own comic if he thought it was so easy. He took their bluff to huge success and now they're threatening anyone who is willing to do business with him.

Comic book fans should be prevented from breeding.

That is assured already.

Idk, they aren't typically /r/drama users.

If you're a fan of anything you should be immediately killed to be honest.

Caring about things is stupid.

Wow, that guy seems like a complete sociopath.
1 bobbybonnadouchey 2018-05-12
This is a bad agendapost.
Not because I don't think it's drama worthy, but because you made no effort. Didn't even link the KIA or 4chan posts.
1 NeoModerateOne 2018-05-12
Cause I am fucking lazy. Sorry. You ablebodied racist.
1 bobbybonnadouchey 2018-05-12
Can't you use your government neetbux to buy yourself a knife, then slit your wrists and stop being a burden on society?
1 NeoModerateOne 2018-05-12
I don't have wrists. Don't be so mandibnormative

There's rumors going around that Mark Waid was physically threatening the publisher into not publishing the comic.
1 youcanteatbullets 2018-05-12
Well then we know it's true

Reminder that the Indiegogo is still active. For anyone that wants to show support. I went in on the $100 tier on top of what I already had.

Is that more or less pathetic than the people who gave Sarkeesian money?
1 MaccusLive 2018-05-12
Nobody ever actively tried to block Sarkeesian from releasing her videos, they just countered her arguments and made fun of them.
Contrast that to this situation, where actual industry power was brought to bear to stop a writer from having his book published.

Anyone who has an opinion on gamergate should be banned fromthe internet.
1 Starship_Litterbox_C 2018-05-12
It wasn't an opinion, it was an observation.
1 youcanteatbullets 2018-05-12
More. Way more. It's currently at $230k out of a $10k goal. For a comic book that people will need to buy once it's been published.
1 MaccusLive 2018-05-12
You get a limited edition signed copy by participating in the Indiegogo. The published edition won't be signed or have the Ethan Van Sciver cover.
You're not giving money for nothing here.

Or do you expect it to be actually passable, lol?
1 MaccusLive 2018-05-12
All I know is that the concept is interesting and the art is great. Beyond that we just have to wait and see.
The story behind the creation of the book is interesting enough to make it worth having as a conversation piece, if nothing else.
1 zergling_Lester 2018-05-12
Are you saying it started a valuable conversation? =)
1 pitterpatterwater 2018-05-12
Imagine paying $100 for a signed edition of a comic, lol.
1 MaccusLive 2018-05-12
You can get the book for $25. You only pay more if you want to get the extras and show support.
1 froibo 2018-05-12
Wow, a signature of a name everyone will forget next week.
