Fun fact : Did you know that there was supposed to be A time force season two and movie.
It’s cool that Josh mentioned Phantom Road! I’ve been reading it on the side causally. It’s not the best, but it’s solid.
Isom is all 3D models
You have to be able to take criticism if you are wanting to to grow and make a better comic. We want good comics in the indie sphere.
Dredd was pretty great in 3D.
I saw it in the cinema in 3D.
It worked!
The biggest threat to floppy comic books in 2024 is the continued lack of profitability – and the escalating cost per floppy to the reader – using the current direct-market distribution model.
Commenting as i watch apologies for multiples.
It's so nice to see people agree on JT4.
I think he is so over rated. His DC work is solely aimed at speculators.
Everything else is LGBT drama or horror. Which is a niche I have no interest in.
so Canadians bring their T. Hortons and Hockey everywhere they go?! I bet anyone working logistics was looking for inbound Canadians at the fronts. Where's Eli Vanto when you need him… to tell you with no doubts if they have or don't have coffee and donuts onboard – you know all allied service members, Mujahideen, and the Talaban were asking…. BIN-LADIN PRANK CALLING ALLIED FORCES FROM CAVES N AMBUSHING FREE-WORLD FORCES FOR THE BREW!!! It was the Canadians who captured Bin-ladan…. putting T. Hortons on a fishing line (above caves) until they found the right cave and hooked him.
Talking about a movie franchise I'd love 2 see get new installments -TRON!
On Harley Quinn Quote Saying Her Comic Is A 10 So U Don't Have 2 Explain Urself – – – Harley Quinn is a horrible character; a female Joker and there are already so many clowns (good and bad) in comics. She also has no era she can be pinned to (witch isn't bad) but/and I don't know why D.C. comics didn't take Punchline serious because that character has potential. A definite era (modern blogger) and they should have made her a character that is all about her show so she uses sexuality at times but also violence when she can or can convince others to on her behalf and play/try to play different men and or woman to make her way to success – get to all the award shows/events/parties for all the things she covers including politics. A lot of modern drama!!! And she would fit with some dope villains and heroes – A "Designer, the" and Punchline story would be dope since I'm sure she would have some fashion parts to her program.
Is The Rings of Power Show That Bad!?
Comics suck because of you idiots. You wouldn’t know a good story or character if it kicked you in the balls. You people suck, on a scale unimaginable to human existence but yet here you are. The evidence or the evidence of primal survival of idiotic behavior? It’s difficult to categorize because of its stupidity. Anyways good luck to you morons and my the farce be with you.✊🏽👏🏽👍🏽🤘🏽👇🏽👆🏽🖕🏽
Eric July with the help of Clip Art Cliff Richards is going to topple Marvel and DC with their 3D asset art book
The customer respect is overflowing at Ripaverse you thought you were getting hand draw stuff in your $50 comic book and there’s no refund
And Eric isn’t ashamed of Cliff Eric is going to keep him on and mentor him
Eric July the guy with no art talent is going to mentor Cliff Richards
Good stories that are not written by left wing ideologues sell, period, this is the story. Ultimate Spider-Man #1, case in point…..
Superheroes have always been muscular men in skin-tight clothing who like it rough. Do you really trust a billionaire doing that while living alone in a mansion with a little boy and the old man who raised him? Warner Bros. and Disney know what they're promoting.
Got to disagree with Aaron, the attacks on fans already happened way before 2016. Marz & Bennet were already attacking Magdalena, Witchblade & Tomb Raider fans in the early 2000's, for not liking the changes they made; and many also seem to have forgotten Silvestri' s role in this. Wes his videos about "Comics Alliance" illustrated perfectly how and when these activist came in at the beginning of the millennium under the moto " fake, till you make it". Or David Gabriel (Marvel) who already in 2015 spoke out that the customers didnt liked the changes and got canceled for it.
In gaming things already kicked of in 2007, where Sarkeesian, Wu, Quin and others viciously attacked fans and devs. Or Disney immediately banning certain females demons in Ghost Rider, but all of this happened when everything still (mostly) was a social taboo. 2016 was just the year they started to turn on the casuals, who till that time mosty supported the activist. Which is one reason why I dont feel sorry for the majority of the Star Wars fandom, who supported these clowns going after the smaller franchises; and only got ticked of when they set their set eyes on their beloved Star Wars and other ip' s with a mainstream appeal. I dont kow if its cause people at the time worked in the Industry, but also good people like Clown Fish TV seem to have missted everything that was already kicking off prior to 2016.

Tron 2 was the only movie I've gone specifically to the 3D showing. It was a good plan, the sfx worked well w the 3D, made the movie better for sure
Kandahar sounds like a city in a bottle
I worked at an LCS when all-new marvel now started up and i said back then, all the race/gender/youth swaps was just planting the seeds for disney to eventually replace the a-list high paid hollywood actors with young nobody actors that they can sign to long contracts w much lower pay. AND bonus: claim to be "staying true to the comics".
Also Secret Wars officially killed the 616 universe in 2015.
Every time I think my life sucks, I just listen to Jim talk about his life for a minute or two and I feel much better.
I gotta buy Transformers and now I gotta get GI Joe
I got ultimate Spider-Man number one
We are going to see a shift in the characters and stories because companies are trying to make money.
As far as reviewing things. Some things aren't meant to be reviewed by certain people. For instance it doesn't make sense for adults to review a swing set and say it wasn't very fun.
