Creepy Uncle Ethan is leaving comicsgate (whatever that means) There's no way I'm going to watch his whiny 25 minute video about it, but I assume he will relaunch a darker more gritty version of it along with his teammates, Dickie and Knife Hands.

I'm just guessing, while you can damage a lot of people's careers by yelling loudly on the internet, it permanently screws you too. Like some women (and probably some male allies too) have gotten hosed by this, but there is no way on earth either of the big two or Image are going to touch EVS with a ten foot pole. However bullshit their responses have been to the whole thing, they aren't going to pay him to make comics ever.

Also he really sucks at making comics so they probably weren't going to pay him money to make them anyways.

I love people pretending they gave a poo poo about She-Ra before the new cartoon was announced. It was only on for like a year, my mom tells me I liked the show but I have no memories of it and knowing my young brain I probably thought it was just episodes of He-Man (It was off the air long after I realized Star Wars was three separate movies and not a tv show).

Hello yes Japanese creator who doesn't understand English, watch my 40 minute YouTube rant about how the anime industry that my crunchyroll account doesn't make a dent in (tho let's be honest they're pirating) has too many Asians and not enough white men

Don't most white people read the main characters in Anime as white, since Japanese animators don't use American stereotypes when animating people from their own country (because why would they)? That's what I do until they do something weird with their shoes or an actual white person shows up and I'm like "I'd call that racist, except we nuked two of their cities so they can do what they want."

"But talk about making my point for me: Yeah, I don't know very much about Stan Lee and it certainly wasn't a swipe at Stan Lee. Yeah, fine. I am agnostic on Stan Lee,” Maher said. “I don't read comic books. I didn't even read them when I was a child. What I was saying is, a culture that thinks that comic books and comic book movies are profound meditations on the human condition is a dumb f**king culture. And for people to get mad at that just proves my point."

"This medium I have absolutely no experience with is clearly a sign of the degeneration of culture."

pretty sure EVS never wrote her

He probably never wrote a script featuring her, but if he was the main artist for any period of time he probably collaborated with Johns on the plotting for the book. Plus even just working off a script an artist has a lot of influence. John Byrne drawing one panel of asparagus people fundamentally altered the storyline for X-Men comics for years.

If you expose them you can't use threat of exposure as leverage to get paid. Possibly they're worried about it affecting their ability to get work at other companies, "don't hire them, the instant something doesn't go their way they'll bad mouth you to anyone who'll listen.,

With the move to digital do more artists ink their own stuff now?

Completely anecdotal, but the three closest issues of Marvel comics I had at hand were Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man 1, captain Marvel 1 and Conan 1, and none of them have an inker in the credits I could see, just Artist and Color Artist. Does the color artist do the inking now?
