Good morning #COMICSGATE!

I closed down UNFROGETTABLE TALES last night with a total of 4227 backers and $225,990 raised! A huge success!

Thanks to all if you who promoted the campaign and backed it! We’re shipping now! Image
People are asking if UNFROGETTABLE is continuing, and the answer is yes! We’ll be adding new colors, a new cover and lettering to a previously unreleased 90’s CYBERFROG issue and that’ll be UNFROGETTABLE #3! And I’ll reprint the HARRIS stuff with new colors too!
But there’s also CYBERFROG: WARTS AND ALL launching this month, which is a 350-or-so page hardcover omnibus that collects every CYBERFROG book from the 90’s as it was originally printed!

Big stuff on the way! Thanks again everyone!

Sure, here's the ESG scam:

Democrats created legislation which permits employers to invest 401Ks in companies based on factors other than profitability, specifically Wokeness on social issues and the Climate.

These companies are now incentivized to promote Left wing causes.
The next part:

Investors all watch these companies and their Social Credit Scores as signals to where EVERYONE who is participating is going to invest their money.

This causes an especially Woke company's stock to rise, pleasing their shareholders.
Finally:

This means that companies MUST GET WOKE QUICK, and must make the case that they "really, truly care about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion." It's a competition to get the highest Social Credit Score in order to attract the attention of these investors.

Comics Breadtubers evidently don't understand that the Comics Code wasn't some dark night of fascism under Wertham, it was the comic book industry saying, "Point taken, Congress. Some of this shit is rough. We'll monitor our own content, though. You stay out."
The entire point of the Comics Code Authority was to reassure retailers and the newsstand that this comic book was okay to sell...

...to children!

Little kids were the audience back then.

It wasn't enforced. You could still make fucked up shit, but that logo meant more sales.
If you believe fascists brought about the Comics Code Authority, how terrifying must the Motion Picture Ratings System be to you?

"Rated R??? WTF! NAZI SCUM!"

Once more:

The US Department of Labor used to enforce regulations that employers and their investment managers chose their employees' investment plans based on financial factors. They'd need to choose mutual funds or ETFs that looked profitable for their employees 401K plans..
That was great, but what about Climate Change and other radical Left wing bottomless pit causes?

A scheme was devised.
Under Obama, employers became able to gamble their employees futures on their own personal social causes & beliefs, by expressly allowing businesses to "make investment decisions that reflect climate change and other environmental, social, or governance (ESG) considerations..."

Hey #COMICSGATE:
Marvel and DC Comics employ radical Left wing activists to produce social justice propaganda disguised as superhero comics, that they emotionally blackmail their audience into purchasing and supporting.

These activists viciously attack their critics.
These formerly great comic book publishers are now owned by enormously indebted corporations, DISNEY and AT&T, who do not respect our creative medium, and are using it to cynically project Woke values in order to qualify for ESG funds and investors. sec.gov/oiea/investor-…
This isn't art. This isn't comics.

The reason comic books are so lousy right now is that whatever comes from our tiny, beloved industry must first serve the interests of their massive parent companies, who no longer need to prove to investors that they are PROFITABLE.

This represents another disturbing SJW trope.

Superman fought Doomsday to the death. This one single superpowered monster defeated the entire DCU and forced a final performance of selflessness and sacrifice from the Man of Steel that left readers weeping.
SJW creators are quick to cheapen stories like this.

"What? Superman couldn't defeat a single Doomsday without dying, but my cheap-o, knock-off Kroger brand DIVERSE Superfolks can EASILY defeat a whole army of them without breaking a sweat! See? Told you they were awesome!"
When you do this, you diminish and devalue Superman. Evidently, he sucks.

You diminish and devalue Doomsday as a terrifying and ultimate villain.

And you diminish and devalue the work of those who told that story.

Was there a deliberate effort made to make Kal-El's descendants resemble the 3 Kryptonian villains from SUPERMAN 2?

Why are they so sullen and terrifying?

Wearing the "S" and being of Superman's lineage should come with his optimism, charm, and charisma or it means nothing.
So much of who Superman is and has always been is how we relate to him. We're HAPPY to see him. When he arrives, everything is going to be okay. We trust him.

The Snyder movies failed artistically because they failed to capture the almost Christlike purity of Reeves portrayal.
I understand that these aren't "Superman", they're his offspring, but like the Snyder version of the character, I don't trust them. They look angry and menacing, like they aren't here to help and sacrifice themselves if necessary for humanity.

They're here to destroy.
