Man, everyone is so broke in comics, and they're all thinking about CYBERFROG with envy and resentment.

It's true, Scott Kurtz, that grossing $1M from a campaign doesn't make you a millionaire. You have to pay taxes and fulfill the campaign.

Cont'd
That's why you take those profits and invest in more product and more time marketing that product.

Over time, $2.7 Grossed on IGG becomes $1M Net in your bank account. And more than that. And then you invest it.

The money you make on IGG is capital to make sellable product.
CYBERFROG and SALAMANDROID are very exciting, very sellable IPs. People are interested when they see them, and we have trouble keeping books in stock.

The more books I produce, the more I'm a fun and relatable presence on YouTube, the more money I make, and the more I will make.

Prediction Thread:

DC's publishing future lays along the lines of YA novels and things that can easily, directly and inexpensively be adapted into streaming shows for teenagers. Which actually is the smartest path for AT&T.
In a way, it's the ultimate victory for SJWs, because they've shrunk DC Comics down to an entirely controllable size for them, producing books in which SJW content merges fairly easily with superhero properties.

In other words, GOTHAM HIGH is the future of DC Comics.
BATMAN, SUPERMAN and JLA will still be published, as they still sell over 40,000 copies. But the line is going to be chopped down by another 75%, and nothing that isn't a guaranteed sale is going to be published.

My mission statement has always been to realign the business of comic books with the interest of the customer.

That means "progressivism" and activism for activism's sake within fun, escapist hobbies needs to be defeated, because it's not in the best interest of the customer.🐸
"Diversity" was the shield activists used to fill the comics industry with social justice activists whose entire purpose was to commandeer who gets to make comic books and the messaging within those comic books.

If you were opposed to them, you were "racist" therefore.
But like every other business or hobby that gets infested with your type, it can't withstand the combination of controversy or the flight of regular, previously loyal customers. So the lack of interest in the product SJWs excrete eventually kills the hobby and business.

Yes, let me explain this to SJWs. (THREAD)

You've heard of POCs? Meet POBs.

People of Business.

AT&T is made up POBs who don't give a fuck about the less than 100,000 customers who still buy comics. Amazingly, POBs care even less about comics customers than SJWs do!
AT&T is a soulless, debt ridden company run by individuals whose annual salaries are equivalent to how much the ENTIRE COMICS INDUSTRY earns in a good year.

These POB SOBs look at the billions of dollars earned by box office receipts and streaming, and have drawn conclusions:
Those conclusions are, in order to get out of debt, we need to stop doing things that expend lots of manpower and make no money, and triple down on the things that make lots of money.

Streaming, all other aspects of business and merchandising related to DC other than comics.
