Comicsgate Hangers-On and Drama Whores - A thread about some guy who's mad about Star Wars and the neckbeards obsessively stalking him

Geez, I stopped following CG drama to follow Weebwars for a bit...
And now looking back at all this I'm very disappointed.
This is just a bunch of nerds having slap fights over drama they create just to slap over.

Even parking lot kingdom hearts didn't make me grimace this much.

EVS, get your shit in order.
I get that without a clear source of opposition you kind of flounder, but you shouldn't start smacking friends just so you can have drama.
To an extent I imagine this actually helps indie comics as a whole, in that it fractures CG, and makes it harder for whales to obsess over while also spreading the indie market.
But... I'm just disappointed.

At least we can all agree that Terrier is trash.

But I do feel somewhat a little sorry for him, the industry encouraged the reseller/speculator market too much, that the industry shot itself in the foot.
I don't, the 90s comics and beanie baby crashes are well known they have no excuse to buy so hard into fads.
 
You want the refund and the product because you think you're entitled to it after the wait?

No, learn to read. You're saying I'm greedy, so I just pointed out that Ethan isn't giving anything for free either. When Ethan offered me a refund after 15 months, he was trying to get something free from me: a $3,000 loan for 15 months, with no interest. He thinks he's entitled to get that for free from me. I decline.


You act like you paid for his house? That's DC money

He didn't buy the house until after he got $600,000 from me and the rest of Comicsgate. We paid him a lot more than D.C.


they write him big ass royalty checks for his comics and dropped 100k on him for the Justice League movie.

He said his check from the movie was $12,000, which is less than Comicsgate paid him for 1 Vampirella drawing that took him 2 days to draw, in his spare time in-between 3-hour livestreams. Speaking of livestreams, Comicsgate has already paid him more than that $12,000 just in superchats.



I hope EVS shits in those books and uses the art page to wipe his ass before he mails them to you.

Which is why I didn't contact him with my complaints and give him my order numbers, like the fools here said I should do. Thank you for showing these people how stupid their suggestions are.


Checked ebay and saw a copy of Bigfoot Bill and Jawbreakers get sold for $85 and $50 respectively.

Jawbreakers sold for $25 on Indiegogo, and you're saying it sells for $50 now. So anyone who spent $1,000 on Jawbreakers now has $2,000 worth of Jawbreakers, according to you. Which you're too stupid to realize, even while you're saying it.



But good fucking luck getting people to pay super premium prices for your giant stack of crowdfunded comics at any reasonable rate just so you can break even.

Ethan sold 100 copies of Cyberfrog for $1500. That's $15 per copy, for the signed chromium cover. Thousands of people have paid $35 since then, for a non-signed, non-chromium cover. The "greedy scalper" (which you spergs call every local comic shop) can sell Cyberfrog for $30, cheaper than Ethan sold it, giving people a better deal on Cyberfrog than has ever been offered, while still doubling his money. But he could easily sell them all for $60, quadrupling his money.

But you're smart


Most of the people interested in these books would have already bought in when it was cheaper

Ethan's already sold $250,000 of the cheaper non-chromium cover, for full price. Because all those people didn't already buy in when it was a better price. But you're smart, so you're probably right that a person won't be able to sell $1,000 worth of comics to $250,000 worth of buyers.

Would any of you obsessed nerds like to explain why you want every local comic store to go out of business? I'm a retailer, but you say anyone who buys comics and sells them deserves to lose all their money. Why are you posting about Comicsgate, if you want the entire industry to disappear? If all comic book businesses stop existing, so will all new comic books. And then what will you do with your lives, which you now spend here talking about the comic book industry?

Sell these comics at 50 bucks a pop if it's so easy, retailer. Why are they still sitting in your room?

You just said you saw one sell on ebay for $50. How do you know it's not mine? If I've already sold half of them at $50, I've already paid for the other half.
I've been watching the price go up as I continue to sell a few individually, a few bundled with Iron Sights, and I'm going to sell A LOT of them bundled with Jawbreakers 2. Oh wait, where's my big box of Iron Sights? Oh no, I guess I already sold them all.

I apologize for your intense feelings about that, and the personal distress being experienced by you and the strangers here who are so emotionally invested in which comic books I'm able to sell. Maybe you should be *financially* invested in something, instead of just using your feelings. Then you'd have something better to do than just talk about me.

Like I said, I have friends who also sell comics. I do business with other local comic book shops. And I have friends who own other comic book shops, who I also do business with. One of those people, from one of those groups, bought the 100 Cyberfrogs for $15 each. If he doesn't sell them, he might ask me to help him sell a few. But that probably won't happen, because he can easily sell them all for a good profit, to people who will be very glad to get them. And you hate that, and you don't think that's even possible, because you have the mind of a child.

You're the one writing essays, doc. Sell your books and shut the fuck up about it. We all know EVS is a terrible with time management. We don't need pages upon pages of you whining about not getting your frog books.

I only posted 1 time, 4 days ago. Everything since then has been me generously responding to other people here, answering the questions they desperately ask me. If you really didn't want me to post any more, you wouldn't keep asking me questions. Troll, flame thyself.

What made you think selling CG books on ebay was a good idea?
You said those were only "some" of your CG books. If you're not a lying sperg you'll show us your comic collection because it sounds like you're just assmad that you can't grift from a grifter and your idiotic plan to profit from the pyramid scheme of autism backfired and now you can't make your credit payment because your ebay store is doing terrible.

You didn't enter into a loan agreement with Ethan, you pre-purchased something that wasn't finished yet. You get no interest on your non-loan if you get a refund, dipshit

Which is why only an except would take a refund. Coincidentally, all of you said you'd take a refund.

I didn't say that. I am firmly in the "I won't do a pre-order, especially a crowdfund, because I have no idea when or, much more importantly, if the product is going to be ready" camp

Buying into a crowdfund is a gamble. If you decide you're done waiting and can walk away with what you put in, you're lucky to be exactly where you started, dipshit

This is why I think crowdfunding is a bubble waiting to burst. People are treating it like pre-orders instead of a risky investment into funding potential vapor ware.

KS is upfront that you are entitled to nothing and your money is nonrefundable.

It'll need a few high profile failures to burst the bubble. The imperium or whatever people finally admitting that Star Citizen will never come out will be one of them

I honestly thought Mighty Number 9 was going to do it. Then the Coleco Chameleon,Yooka Laylee and Shenmue 3 happened.
