Lurdiak posted:You could just admit he was wrong. They're only wrong on a technicality, similar to how Russia's annexation of Crimea and later proxy invasion of Ukraine as a whole are technically different conflicts on paper, but part of the same broader campaign of territorial aggression on the part of one belligerent party. But on another technicality, Zhang Chongren did live through WW2 and the accuracy of the statement has very little to do with the actual timing of the war. That he also had a valid reason for anti-Japanese sentiment from their invasions and abuses of China prior to WW2 is, technically, a separate matter as to whether he also had a reason to maintain that antipathy after.

FMguru posted:Man, just think of how much better Kirby's art would have been if he'd cross-hatched ten thousand tiny lines in every panel. Maybe I'm not enough of art person to know what's meant by 'detailed' but one of the things about Kirby's art, at least to me, is all that machinery and background and texture, like for example:

What I mean is, Kirby put this much detail and coloring work into the book in a small office while doing 15 other books without any digital assitance. EVS can't do 1 book with way more budget, time, and digital tools.

So one of the... eh, I guess he's a B-list ComicsGate clown, That Umbrella Guy* spent the day yesterday having a massive freakout over Renfamous being in a comics anthology with no experience while he launched his own IndieGogo about his own comic (with no experience). That's not even the funny part, though. Check out the mask of his lead character: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-case-of-the-littlest-umbrella#/ Should somebody alert Capcom's legal department now or wait? *Warning sign number one: never trust anybody whose handle is still a Channel Awesome reference.,

EVS hates Star Wars so much he paid at least $75 plus travel expenses to go Star Wars Celebration and complain about it.

No they did go see it and theaters colluded with Disney and processed the ticket sales as Captain Marvel tickets. YES, this is what they have claimed.

I guess they must have also had an insider who whispered in James Cameron's ear to cram the first six hundred pages of the manga into an two hour movie and mash characters from even later chapters into it haphazardly. Curse those meddling SJW's!

It's also hundreds of issues long and went for a long, long time. Condensing and cutting stuff is how adaptation works, and doing a strict 1:1 translation of the source would not have worked at all as a movie.

The bullshit that rear end in a top hat has been putting Renfamous through over the past week has been absolutely loving ridiculous. (Accused her of doxxing him and threatening his family, getting his followers riled up and believing it, and then getting them to ACTUALLY doxx Ren and her family and make threats towards them.) The dude is legit mentally unwell and something needs to be done about him before he gets someone hurt for real.
