I love the way people are suddenly experts in the law when things like this happen and they're sure their guy is in the right.

That happens with everything. People seem to think the law is written specifically to fit their personal biases.

I wonder if people are donating because they think that Dickie needs to prove innocence.

Isn't D&C the plaintiff in this case? How is Mark Waid the one dragging him through court? :psyduck:

It's wild the way they try and get the evidence to fit their narrative. Always wish I could see their face sin the Vic case when the judge didn't do what they thought he was going to do.

If only Big Mean Mark Waif hadn’t done what he did, then D&C wouldn’t be forced to defend himself at great cost (to GoFundMe donors).

I am positive whomever Dickie got for his lawyer is nowhere near on Mark Zaid's legal level and probably has them running through a lot of hoops and just burning cash by the shovelful.

Quick reminder: if you can, please post screenshots of the tweets from chuds (or chud adjacent things) instead of the tweet itself, because the twitter algorithm reads the linking to other websites (even dead stupid forums like this one) as A Good Thing and it shows said tweet to even more people.
This also applies to twitter itself: instead of RTing, screenshot.

This is like when the idiots latched onto Battle Angel Bad CGI-ita as some kind of anti-sjw competitor to Captain Marvel.

which was both hilarious and maddening

hilarious, because Alita was an almost bizarrely leftist movie in which a latinx woman uses space kung fu to fight a rich white man (who literally appropriates a black man's body in order to mingle with the poors), and thus everything they could possibly hate, just not Disney and thus apparently "anti-sjw"

maddening, because it was actually genuinely a better movie and didn't deserve to get tarred by that bullshit

No clue. I just know it's a chan thing and like Endless Mike I don't care enough to search more about it.

Dickie and company have always seemed to be unaware where 'boi' comes from though, which is pretty funny.

I think DC is doing a thing where a bunch of superheroes are getting replaced with legacy versions. There will be a Batman, Superman, etc, but it won't be Bruce Wayne or Clark Kent.

If comics are Dying, then CG is right.

It's the same everywhere right now, unfortunately. People like to come up with their favored narrative first, then jump onto whatever they can find that supports the narrative.

For schmucks like EVS, "get woke go broke" is an immutable law of the universe. Hence, since mainstream comics are nominally more progressive than they were a few years ago, and thus more "woke," the industry must also be on an irreversible decline. Anything that supports that theory is God's own truth; anything that contradicts it is liberal propaganda.
