Are they, because the only thing I've seen from that book so far is Darkseid Weinsteining Granny Goodness so I'm less than interested in that book so far.

I liked it but it's definitely about how poo poo men are if you're not into that

I’m fine with that, less fine with using rape as a writing tool to show how bad a man is. Especially when it’s as out of character as it is with Darkseid

Fair, I guess I'm more willing to accept that than i normally would be since a woman is writing so it didn't register as the same kind of shock value as it normally it's in comics and I have no attachments to darkseid whatsoever, or maybe rather that I've read almost 0 books featuring him before

In other news apparently someone did a thing today

It's been an unfortunate issue with Kieran before. I have a friend who's still waiting for some of his Patreon rewards from a couple years back, and I'm still waiting for the episode of Journey into Misery that I requested to go up.

I like the guy and his work but I can't pretend that he's good at things like meeting deadlines or fulfilling backer rewards.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

I was sure that there was some twitter post a little while ago that he mentioned how bad he was a the Kickstarter and how his anxiety made him deal with it poorly. But it made it sound like he was rectifying it.

I guess my reading comprehension was trash then.

At least he's admitting it's his fault and (supposedly) working to fix it. If I was an artist I wouldn't work with him unless I was being paid in advance, but if he actually follows through on his most recent promises it's still better than whatever that comicsgate book that keeps "having issues with the printer."

Oh, it's all of them. Well, maybe not EVS because he just doesn't work on it, but Dickie and Miller have both cited 'print file problems' because they don't believe in representation in comics OR Google Documents.

Hm I looked it up and what they actually did was say they wouldn’t support protests where people bring guns. Not quite the same.

I wasn't sure cause there's not many I followed outside of him, Chris Sims and Matt D Wilson but that was mostly because of War rocket AJAX podcast to compare who has parted ways. Looks like Sims did. I recalled him mentioning a podcast starting with Elle Collins which seemed to have finished quite soon, but podcasts do tend to fizzle out quick sometimes.

It's a shame because I thought they had resolved this after the initial calling out, disappointing it wasn't.
I hope he's true to his word now.

Sims mostly does podcasts and articles for stuff like Looper these days, along with a little bit of comic writing alongside Chad Bowers.
