Red Son and 100 Bullets cover artist Dave Johnson is getting in on the grift. https://twitter.com/Devilpig666/status/1093664290647683072 The full image on eBay might be considered  depending on your work. I wish he said he was giving the profits from this to charity Edit: A quick tweet to Dave later, it looks like he's gonna donate proceeds to Planned Parenthood in Mike's name.

bessantj posted:I admit I might not want to know this but what is the Batgirl variant cover controversy? DC solicited this as a variant for an issue:  The theme is incredibly in bad taste and people were not happy about it because of that. The artist himself wished for it to be unlisted as well. DC did just that and it upset a bunch of mega chuds who refused to see why it's problematic. Here's a quick article on it. http://time.com/3755285/batgirl-joker-cover-controversy-feminism/

All three!) and strong creative teams pulled me in from the get-go. It's probably a situation like Sean G Murphy who thinks he's doing the right thing by "listening to both sides with an open mind."

Dawgstar posted:So has it been a long time coming in Sean G. Murphy taking the ComicsGate plunge? He's got an IndieGoGo CG are (at least claiming) they'll back out of support or whatever. Amusingly That Umbrella Guy is very upset because he's going to launch his project at the same time and is mad that he's up against somebody with mainstream talent and is "only in it for the money but isn't a REAL ComicsGater!!!" Is SGM considered CG because he's using IGG or is there something else I'm missing? I'm not sure I've ever seen SGM have explicit opinions on comicsgate either way and as much as chuds use igg almost exclusively for their campaigns, all campaigns that use igg are not chuddy.

There seems to be a whole bunch of artists with a kind of similar sketchy style that aren't chuds but definitely chud-adjacent. They know that comicsgate is bad and evs is bad but don't understand why those things are bad and aren't really interested in finding out. See also Sean Murphy and J Scot Campbell (I'd toss Andrew Robinson in that group but he went full formed chud earlier this year).

Jedit posted:Sean Murphy is a chud? He wrote Punk Rock Jesus because the rise of Sarah Palin scared him shitless. He's "chud-adjacent." Definitely not as bad as other people or comicsgate but he's willfully ignorant on a lot of things. He's shifted from kickstarter to comicsgate darling indiegogo for his projects and had quit twitter earlier this year in a hissy fit when people pointed out he was spewing right wing talking points about the George Floyd protests. Like some other people I mentioned, he's not a chud but he's definitely listening to chuds and internalizing some of their bad faith arguments.

Edit: ^^^^ That's what I get for sitting on this post for a couple minutes. Jeeeeez Disney is now trying to claim that when they bought Lucasarts and Fox, they actually didn't buy those companies, they just acquired the assets of the company and the liabilities (like signed contracts for royalty payouts) are now void. https://twitter.com/doctorow/status/1329240238816858120 There also seems to be a terrifying new trend going through corporate biglaw where they demand NDAs to even meet with someone to consider negotiations.

Steranko makes you pay for his autograph (not great but understandable) even on prints you purchase directly from him (supremely rear end in a top hat move). Jin Wicked is correct that he's living 40 years in the past. He absolutely has chihuahua syndrome over his height too. I used to follow him on twitter but after he went on a long dumb tirade about how everyone should vote trump in 2016, I unfollowed him and honestly, had mostly forgotten he was still alive until this popped back up in my feed today. He's incredibly influential and has led a great life but rather than continuing to live a great life, he's decided to live in the past and surround himself with people that let him continue to live in the past. He's a sad old man who's gonna end up tainting his great legacy by refusing to read the room.

Uthor posted:One reason I heard that Qanon is so good at spreading is that it's basically an ARG with no "right" answer, so everyone who falls for it does so because they put in the work to figure out what is "really going on". There needs to be drastically more work to dissuade someone of an option they worked hard to cultivate on their own. I feel like Qanon took a lot of aspects of TV/movie theorizing and turned it into a terrible reality. You have a lot of the same kind of logic going into qclock analysis that you see from people analyzing the MCU or even going back to poo poo like Lost and it made it more effective at taking root. It's one of the reasons I've tried really hard to stay away from theorizing about poo poo like Wandavision because that's not a part of my brain I need active and craving for more attention.
