I was just looking forward to Dickie's "Please help, my lawyer took all my money and I can't get my trash comics out to my backers!" fundraiser. I wanted to taste that sweet schadenfreude. Though that could still happen, I have hope.

It’s not a total loss comedy wise, as someone on twitter noticed:

I can only assume this is to keep their dumb as rocks base from getting wise and realizing they aren’t as strong as they think, with the added benefit of energizing some marks enough to get them to give up even more money.

NPC is the funniest thing to come out of Chudspace this past year cause they super don't know how to implement it. It's a joke only they get, so nobody cares when they say NPC, so you get things like them dressing up as NPCs to...own the NPCs...or defacing a John Oliver billboard by making him look like an NPC but keeping the time and date for his new season on a random billboard that you're now giving more attention. Way to stick it to 'em...I guess.

That plot doesn't sound like it has anything at all in common with the X-Men.

One of the most consistent things about comicsgate is that they refuse to read anything into X-Men beyond "People with superpowers that other people hate". You can't ride the coattails of your past if you acknowledge the message of what you worked on is antithetical to everything you believe.

Since that tweet was from 2017, do we have any current replies from him trying to backpedal faster or the minute chance of “I was extremely ignorant about this topic” and a genuine apology?

He decided to just tweet through it and ignore all the callouts. Good play, really. More than bad opinions people hate being acknowledged so it's best to let them assume you're just an rear end in a top hat.

Them not having to go through Krakenprint is the best chance they've ever had at getting those books. Earlier this year I couldn't even get a response from them to give them money, and it seems like that's been the case for a bit now.

Weirdly, a few months ago poor man's Breitbart Bleedingfool put out an article claiming Krakenprint laid off its entire staff, and while that wasn't true they have been having some issues.
