I know some of you are comics fans. So anyone else considering grabbing a copy of Jawbreakers? It looked kinda interesting to me.

I thought it was cancelled after SJWs and MRAs got into a slap fight over it. All I know about it is that Jon Malin is doing the interior art, and the last book I read he did the art for looked like it was traced from 90s Leifeld sketch books. So, you know, not a huge fan. I'll download it though, out of morbid curiosity.

Guess we know why Pol is interested in it. Smiley: smile

Actually when I read this thread at lunch today, I thought, "What is this?" and then I read the comments on the linked page and said, "Oh, that's why."

Liberal Conspiracy

TILT

Manly men with sunglasses and nearly naked chicks with butt-shots. Looks like every other comic book from the 90s I remember seeing.

I'm not particularly into the mainstream western comics, but what is supposed to be the hook here? Is it that they're ex-superheroes? Is it that they're trying to save a monster instead of killing? Is it the thrill of finding out how the namesake candy makes its cameo?

Antarctic Press dropped them after a phone call from Mark Waid, but it's still available directly through Indiegogo. They're talking about using the Indiegogo money to set up their own publishing house.

And I don't think MRAs were involved, not that I know of.

Actually, I follow Richard on Youtube. I enjoy his discussion of comics, though he does tend to ramble sometimes. I'm mostly curious to see what he'll put out.
