The record that people care about is that Cerebus and Savage Dragon have essentially been the same creator own book for their entire run. There's been dozens of artists on Spawn.

Even then there's some major asterisks involved; Cerebus went 300 issues that were written, drawn, and published by Dave Sim. Gerhard did backgrounds and received partial ownership of the book for his work, ownership he eventually sold back to Sim after whatever Dave Sim Breakdown stage caused them to have a falling out. But the fact is that all 300 issues were created and owned by the same creator(s) who shared ownership. Spawn is about to have its 301st issue, but the vast majority of those have been written and drawn by people other than Todd McFarlane, the owner of Spawn. The majority of the creative energy put into these 301 comics was work for hire. Erik Larsen's Savage Dragon meanwhile is "only" at 246 issues, but every one of them has been written and drawn by Erik Larsen. If you just count the number of issues versus the "issue number" Stan Sakai has written and drawn at least 200 issues of Usagi Yojimbo, probably more like 250+. It's a lot more issues than Todd McFarlane wrote/drew of Spawn, at any rate, and probably more than Larsen on Savage Dragon, but they're not consecutively numbered so no one looks at it in these horse races. And again if you're ignoring the whole "the creator owned book should be written and drawn by the creator, otherwise it's still basically work for hire", John Goldwater co-created Archie Andrews and the rest of the Riverdale crew and Goldwater was the owner/co-owner of Archie Comics until his death in 1999, so there's like a thousand issues of Archie/Jughead/Betty & Veronica published as a "creator owned" title. Hellboy/BPRD/etc. has to be over 300 issues by now too, and Mignola owns that. There were probably at least 500 issues of various Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics published while Eastman and Laird were still owners. Todd McFarlane's record is really just "most consecutively numbered issues of a superhero comic book where the property is owned by the creator"

The worst part is that, by what I heard, Youngbloods was having a decent run by some people Rob hired before his partner screwed him. I was actually morbidly curious in it. It's not usual industry terribleness and Rob is an asshat, but having your partner sell your original property to, well, that whose going to make a mockery of it every day must suck.

I'm friends with Chad Bowers, who was writing it. He was doing some really cool things. Terrific Productions is even using the redesigned Y logo that book used for their Twitter avatar.

I think it was posted in this thread but I remember reading about the new writer of GI Joe who got banned on the GI Joe forums after doing a Q&A thread where he revealed that one of the characters in the new comic had committed the unforgivable sin of being a gay man in a comic based on military toys. Well I read the first issue today of the comic, because it seemed like a good idea to support someone that pisses the right people off, and the comic was real good. The main characters of the comic are a woman, a Pakistani substitute teacher turned soldier, and a young gay Cambodian man who is the new recruit of the team and the POV character it seems. The plot is that they're fighting underground to overthrow fascists who have taken over the country. The blonde hero soldier of the team dies like three pages in which I'm sure really upset the right people. Seems like this book has already ticked off all the boxes to completely turn the shithead fans against it, which is a win in my book.

Yeah, Paul Allor did a Q&A on HissTank which is where a lot of reactionary G.I. Joe fans hang out, and some of them honestly lump in Hama's comic series as the same thing as the cartoon and they're really not. Both are commercials, certainly, but Hama being both a minority and having served in Vietnam gave him a perspective on the military that he made sure to put in his work and the chuds just see cool vehicles and people with codenames fighting. Already people's nostrils flared when Allor mentioned there would in fact be queer people in the comic and taking a look at the thread on the release of the first issue it's about what you'd expect: a fourth "I enjoyed it," half complaining about 'SJW nonsense' and the rest not reading it but commenting on what's said because internet. That said the mods not only closed Paul's thread but also removed whatever his final words in the thread were because HissTank is a nightmare. It's really good, though. People ought to read it. Allor is antagonizing the twitchy part of the fanbase way more than Sitterson ever did, who deliberately tried.

Apparently the proud tradition of far-right radio/shock-jock personalities making American Badass comics of themselves is alive and well: https://twitter.com/QanonAnonymous/status/1175545824597565440 Posobiec is a huge MAGA chud who rides the line between "just hilariously stupid dumbass who can't even cheat on his wife right" and "oh poo poo wait no this isn't funny he actually causes real harm" but this seems firmly in the former category. He made a lot of money and connections off pizzagate dogshit and now he's pivoting to being a secret agent guy I guess by hiring Chuck Dixon to make a comic of himself and his wife and Tactical Baby.
