Looks like former TGWTG contributor, nasty cockslut, and all-round lolcow, Lewis Lovhaug is getting on the D&C hate wagon.

It's pretty clear that he's talking about Zach. Too bad, I don't have the heart to tell him that uploading bad reviews is not racist or homophobic.

Oh this should go over well lol
I hope nobody asks if he ever blames himself for his transgender ex voting for trump.

Like anyone at all cares about this literally who.

Books a Million is privately owned by the Anderson family of (I think) Texas. Barnes & Noble is publicly traded and its main shareholder is also its chairman, Leonard Riggio. They are not the same company, not sure why you think that. In fact, at this point they're the other's main competition. Outside of Amazon, of course.

Sorry for the :autism:.

Still, are we or are we not watching the comics industry go code blue on the table and one or two gasps from the slab?

This is some serious publishing mega-death going on.
 
I'm honestly lost where even to begin with someone like Linkara talking shit about anyone. So I'll keep it simple.

The article basically covers another book getting targeted by the SJW mob. They succeed in getting it dropped by the publisher and (of course) they still weren't satisfied.

The book is titled 'A Suicide Bomber Sits in the Library'
Summary:
"When a young boy enters a library wearing an explosive vest hidden underneath his lovely new red jacket, he has only one plan on his mind.
But as he observes those around him becoming captivated by the books they are reading, the boy can’t help but question his reason for being there."​

I'm sure you will guess which types got offended by it.

I guess G Willow Wilson and others just don't like the idea of little boys NOT blowing themselves up in libraries.

This sort of got passed by because of recent twitter slapfights and DMCA shenanigans but Zainab Akhtar @comicsandcola is one of the people that was trying to get at Robert Crumb at the Ignatz awards, I guess she got a scalp this time, fuck her for trying to get ahead by tearing other people down for this idpol bullshit. I suppose it's all you've got when you're a mediocre talent whose only accomplishments are just "wearing a hijab awards" from spineless shitlibs to jealously tear away at artists with actual talent and accomplishments, it doesn't make you any less of a morally bankrupt utter piece of shit though.

Also what is this Asian Authors Alliance? By the looks of it a blog that was recently just made whose only post is this shitty loathsome piece of censorship. What makes this whole thing worse is that the people doing it cannot not be aware of the horrifically violent threat that lies behind their complaint, the publishers can hardly be blamed for dropping this book like a hot brick when the very real threat of being Hebdo'd if this manufactured outrage could gain traction in the media if they did publish and be damned.

I'll have look in to some of the other people behind this later and see what I can find, I have got a bus to catch.

So he's mad about a contest, figures he'd get mad at competition that awards based on meritocracy:

On the one hand, I get the complaints that people will sometimes try and get artists to work for free with vague, non-committal promises of “exposure” and “it’s for your resume/portfolio.”

On the other, there’s a world of difference between some start-up “ideas guy” douche canoe off the street trying to convince you to make fully animated ads for his business for the low price of “I’ll buy you a drink” and an established publisher accepting your work to be put into a book. By this logic, the very fact that most indie publishers require you to either have a script, mostly finished comic, or both to present them before they’ll sign a contract with you is also an “exposure” scam. Made to be even more pathetic since their complaints aren’t even valid and just expose them as not having even read into the competition before jumping down the publisher’s throats.

He can at best nitpick elements and often punches low by reading self-published or indie stuff since it's easy material

I disagree. As I longtime watcher of AT4W, I'd say that he mainly focuses on the big two, and honestly goes rather in-depth, especially on the characters and art.

His understanding of comics is awful

I would actually say his understanding is better than most.

Luckily for Robert Crumb, he's so beyond giving a fuck about any of this bullshit, is a living legend (until he croaks and becomes just a legend) and is probably just laughing at every bit of this, being a completely depraved pervert and not caring at all.
 
Weirdos so obsessed with a toilet thought posting site and the asspats from the non-reality within they can't leave it for less than a week. That'd be so sad were they not repugnant piles of ambergris sharted out of a whale carcass.

Twitter is literally not designed for nuanced thoughts and people should probably be kicked off for misusing it for things other than blurbs.
 
So according to Ethan's Twitter feed, he put up a video recently exposing some comic pros as having skeletons in their closet that got struck down fast. What's the tldr on this?

She hasn't even had the account a whole day and it's already got 35 tweets. Goddamn Lauren, go talk to your husband or something.

He's living in France, and he thinks it's perfectly fine if you want to call him a depraved pervert. He probably hates you, though. In fact, he probably hates a lot of the people in modern comics fandom.

If she replies, it will be to call you sub-human or some variant of dehumanizing. That or you get called "too stupid" if you don't see how CG is that much worse than her old comments about how homosexuals should be beaten.

Someone literally just told me I should have less aggressive phrasing.....I didn't insult her, I fail to see how I could have asked this any more nicely. I go out of my way to not insult her because that would just be playing into her game.
