My giant monkey comic book came today!

If you don’t know what this is: Richard Meyer is a guy who loves comic books. A little over a year ago he started a YouTube channel to talk about it. It quickly became all about how social justice was ruining the funny books. This made his channel very, very popular and made the current crop of comic book professionals very, very angry. And they were all like if you’re so smart, why don’t you make your own comic? And then he did. So they picked up the phone and scared his publisher off*. So then he self-published. I was one of the first few hundred backers, me.

It looks pretty good. I don’t know yet. I can’t read comics sober.

*it turns out, intefering in somebody else’s business deal is against the law. They particularly do not cotton to such conduct in Texas, where much of this happened. So not only did I get to see a neat comic book, but also a very amusing lawsuit (ongoing).

Looks cool!…let us know how it is. Everything SJW’s touch turns to sh*t.

Yeah, but, if a woman looks at Meyer directly in the eyes, they wake up in his bed, pregnant, and married to him. Look away, stoaty!

I backed two of the Comicsgate artists for Cyberfrog and Red Rooster comics. It’s a hoot because I think the last comic book I read was Casper in probably in the 60s. Now with Youtube its possible to watch the artists draw real time. Wow what talent! Plus I feel like a rebel buying comic books.

I would have backed more, but the postage and handling IGG tacks on for overseas are terrifying. Literally as much as the comic.

I even dropped Meyer a note and asked how many copies I’d have to buy to be a local distributer.

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
