As a guy who turned down a side job this year for a paycheck that would’ve been over a third of his yearly income– BECAUSE it would’ve meant cutting back on his not-so-lucrative comic book writing career– and get in the way of working on his Spider-Man dream job…
…and the guy who slept less than 12 hours over the course of 4 days this week working on a script while he was sick… a guy who finally had to be ORDERED off it by his editor to go see a doctor… and is still in a good deal of pain today…
…this is the first time I think I’ve ever said this to somebody over a comic book message board:
Go fuck yourself.
Seriously.
Go. Fuck. Yourself.
Dan Slott, I love you. It's the perfect slap in the face that I think some of the comic fandom needed. Seriously, where does this guy get off saying that? Does the asshole think he is that entitled and that much of a genius about comics to be able to say that? No one knows that much besides someone like Stan Lee.
Comic fans in general seem to be a very entitled bunch. Something is slightly changed, they go nuts over the internet and start a mob looking for the writers head. Calm. The. Fuck. Down. Dan Slott is a great writer and has been proving that he loves the character with every inch of his comic writer being. Anyone who follows the guy on Twitter knows how committed he is to his writing.
I hate this part of the medium. It actually makes me not like writing about the industry at some points. I wrote a review of Boston Comic Con and got lots of hate emails for "not reporting factually." How the fuck do you know that? Look at the facts then comment. Just because people can post anonymously doesn't mean you can just spout hate and things that are just flat out false.
Hopefully this will help the rest of the bitchy comic community collectively calm down and think clearly before posting comments. HAHAHAHAHA......that made me laugh. That will never happen
