I saw Mike Norton and Erik Larsen on the list more recently.

This whole thing will be incredibly useful as a guide to creators who are anti-CG. They're literally putting their money where their mouths are.

Jordan White and Fred Van Lente too

Super researchers of BSS, when did the term "cheesecake" to refer to sexualized art of women come into use in the comics fandom, or just the general world at large? Because that's the word I tend to associate with what anime/manga fans refer to as "fan service".

Milligan and Allred's X-Force/X-Statix had plenty of sex stuff in it too, Milligan is just a far better writer and the Allred's art style brings an entirely different vibe to it.

he wrote that one wolverine/punisher crossover that was just one big setup to a punchline about the punisher being gay, that's pretty memorable for the wrong reasons

a crossover he only wrote because garth ennis had wolverine in his punisher comic and made fun of him for being all snikt bub

He's written some memorably bad stuff-- I think he's responsible for every appearance of the execrable and very early 2000s badguy Mr. X, up until a few semi-memorable Thunderbolts appearances around the time of Siege.

Also, I don't know on earth Gynovore means by "they (Peter David? Scott Lobdell? Who is 'they'?) decided to make M Muslim because why the heck not." She was established almost immediately in the mid-90s as a French-Algerian woman visibly coded as a PoC, born in Bosnia, it's a safe bet she was never intended to be a loving Methodist.

But her name is Monet St. Croix! That ain't no Muslim name!

sigtrap probated (and i think maybe banned?) people who brought up and called out that a guy who had a thread about buying and rebuilding an old mustang also posted on a white supremacist website instead of just banning the white supremacist, its hard to tell because the original AI thread was moved to the mod forum and all thats left is that helldump thread. sigtrap's excuse in the helldump thread was "people should have posted about him being a white supremacist in helldump instead of in AI"

I got at least a couple of people banned last summer when EVS sicced his crew on me, since the entire narrative there was EVS going "oh ho, the trebuchet thing about eliminating vermin like you from society is a JOKE, something you soyboy cuck snowflakes are incapable of understanding" and then a few people were dumb enough to go "it's not a joke, I want to end you" and they got suspended.

The funny thing is that I was trying to look up that incident a few weeks ago (I forget why) but the threads are almost all gone because literally 18 out of 20 people who yelled at me have suspended accounts today.

you getting people banned by them being super mad at you is amazingly on brand and i'm not saying that in a bad way

I've been into comics pretty much my entire life and I've never seen a single issue of Shi, nor have I ever met anyone that has actually bought or even read it. I remember there being a bunch of ads for it in Wizard. I think I ended up assuming it was vaporware.

in an early issue of Cartoonist Kayfabe, Ed Piskor cuts a promo about Shi and how there were so many ads for it in Wizard, Little Eddie thought that meant it must have been great and then when he eventually read it later in life it was awful
