lol the guy who makes Kill Six billion Demons does pages like this; almost every week for the last 10 months. Diaz only updated his comic 6 times since Kill Six Billion Demons started.
I like the snide jab at the Penny Arcade artist. Like Diaz somehow does more work than him. Lol what the fuck dude.
Not even that. It's the implication that PA comics can just be shat out (and looking at the art it's not hard to imagine), whereas Dresden Codak comics are these epic masterworks that require time and effort. And when I say Dresden Codak comics I mean Twitter posts.
He also ignores the fact that Mike has a whole lot fucking more on his plate than Dresden. If what I'm getting is correct, he does art for Penny Arcade, he writes opinion articles and general news on the site, he has a family, and (and this is pure speculation here) he also probably helps Jerry with planning PAX East/North/West. On top of that he does the occasional illustration (which is much more appeasing thatn Dresden's stuff.) So with all that considered, of fucking course his PA comics aren't hyperdetailed, but it's impressive that he keeps up constantly with the comic when he has a lot of things on his plate. What the fuck is Dresden doing? His literal only occupation as far as I can tell is his fucking comic. But it seems that with the success of his Patreon he feels free to dick around on Twitter, making snide jabs at other people and talking up how much "work" he puts in to his comics.
Mike also has been working on developing his own role playing tabletop style game for the past couple years and has undertaken the full monty of it, meaning playtesting, organizing test groups, and playing it with friends to iron it out. It even seems a tiny bit interesting, even if I don't give a fuck about it. Planning PAX's is probably a huge brunt of the work though. Khoo(their demonically talented...editor? Wrangler? Publicist? Everything-Master) can't do it all but he can organize everyone to carry their fair share and Mike would be no exception. Do I think Mike's art has gotten shittier? Yeah. It's still more appealing than the by-the-numbers disneyesque shit Diaz makes.
As usual- Aaron let's his inner white knight show through on twitter Or maybe beta-male? Who the fuck knows. Whipped male is whipped. Not only that- but which women are we talking about here? The femnazis or the cosplayers? But I'm sure the inner circle of five carpet munchers would do much - to damage whoever you would like. Because why need facts when the slightest doubt is good enough? I would assume if she had any doubt she'd go after Zoe Quinn but I guess it doesn't matter as long as you're a strong "feminist", whatever the fuck that means.
I got curious when someone on here mentioned that Diaz does redesigns of characters, so I checked it out. The original is first, then Diaz's image. STARFIRE: DOCTOR STRANGE: MS. MARVEL WONDER WOMAN SUPERMAN Half of me likes how he changed the designs to better suit the heros' origin stories, the other half hates him for comparing his flat art style with DC/Marvel's.
yeah the custom changes were nice but the fact that he fucks with superman's and wonder woman's origin story is kinda stupid.
This irritates me so much. Starfire is ok. But, Ms. Marvel is so ugly, I rather have the original one. Superman is just fucking terrible and might as well be the Martian Manhunter then.
it bothers me how close that is to this: but 100% less dynamic idk but something tells me he saw that image. just tossing that out there.
