you think Ms America and the Champions are bad Sup Forums? then you havent seen this.
CALEXIT #2 (w) Matteo Pizzolo (a) Amancay Nahuelpan (ca) Amancay Nahuelpan $3.99 32 pages FC Mature UPC: 045778026647 >Synopsis: “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” Zora and Jamil are faced with some harsh choices, a few roid raging Neo-Nazis, & not much water... but Disneyland has churro ice cream sandwiches so it’s kinda all worth it. California Über Alles.
Black Mask puts out a lot of surprisingly great and underrated comics, so I might actually check this out.

Its not. the 'young' creators of today grew up on second wave cyberpunk and dystopia without reading any Bradbury or Heinlein or Asimov. Or fuck, even any P.K. Dick. Expect to see rehashing of concepts already overdone by better authors.
Adam Lopez
>but Disneyland has churro ice cream sandwiches so it’s kinda all worth it. Is this serious? This is like a parody of what people think of California, and Americans in general.

Has there been any storytimes of the first issue? This looks like solid gold.
Justin Foster
Yeah, I don't understand how middle America doesn't despise the fuck out of California.
What makes this worse is that so far Black Mask has a flawless track record.
Noah Morgan
Don't worry, we do.
Jordan Wood
>Yeah, I don't understand how middle America doesn't despise the fuck out of California. Everyone who's not California despises California.

Come on, i know most of Sup Forums hates Black Mask, but i really do cringe at their attempt to appeal to urban upper-class hipsters. They're hardly any better than, say, Valiant comics in the 90s. It has been hit-and-miss for a while
John Baker
>then you havent seen this. but this looks great.

This is satire, right? They can't actually be this retarded?
Julian Reed

Tyler Martinez
>i know most of Sup Forums hates Black Mask What? Most of Sup Forums has either never heard of Black Mask or generally likes their output. I've never seen any negative comments about them. Just a mix of "literally who" and genuine enjoyment.

How would calexit even work wouldn't they die of thirst?
Gavin Richardson
First issue doesn't come out for another 2 months.
Elijah Wilson
they provide Southern California with water, though it's really only Colorado, Nevada, and Arizona, who supply the water.
Levi Cook
>I sup on your fat inbred tears. I'd be mad but you can't get water anywhere else so I consider it a charity.

nah, no offence but you must be new. Every time i made a thread to discuss Black Mask i got responses about how "artsy" and "new-york aesthetic" and "pretentious" they are. Kinda hyperbole but true
William Powell

You and I have different experiences with discussing Black Mask Studios on Sup Forums then. Probably a timezones things.
Isaiah Hernandez
i read that as "fook ouf"
Evan Torres

Alexander Ramirez
You're not even in the top ten for natural gas you stupid fuck.
Thomas Ross
you must have missed that one poorly-disguised Sup Forums thread about their comic (can't remember the name) where black people have superpowers and are therefore hunted by police Basically an X-men concept
Mason Richardson
And if you missed the "we can never go back" storytime, some people in Sup Forums even like to say it was there favorite comic in 2015
Dominic Rogers
Oh, Liberals. If only they could understand how they're the real modern Orwellian Nightmare. Even Big Brother's boys didn't really buy into their own kool-aid.

Nah, man. Leftists are putting on their brownshirts and red armbands as they gather up weaponry. Because it's okay when they do it, apparently.
Jordan Hughes
Nevada and Arizona supplying water to another state?
Aren't those states going to run out of water themselves?
Chase Mitchell
This. The only people that defend it live there.
Christian Cox
You're confusing true leftists with liberals. Neoliberalism and its supporters (the Democrat and Republican parties both) is a poison, and political extremism Left & Right are manifestations of its death knell.
Gabriel Brooks
Black Mask is probably the best comic publisher around today so I trust them with this.

Jesus. "The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress" was my favorite book growing up in the 60's and 70's.
How could you not read that as a nerdy kid these days?
I mean, Foundation is kinda dull, but TMIAHM?
Tanstaafl, line marriages, The Authority, Mort the Wart, Wyoming Knott, The Professor, Manny, and of course, Mike.

Jace Edwards
So what would actually happen in the event California seceded? Don't they have a lot of issues with drought and earthquakes and shit?
Tyler Ross
I've never even heard of that before
Carson Young
Maybe supplying was the wrong word, "vying for" might have been better. From what i understand we compete with Nevada, Arizona, Utah, and Colorado for water coming from the Colorado river. We've got a few water projects like the California aqueduct and the Carlsbad Desalination that helps reduce our reliance on out of state water, but the majority of our water still comes from the Colorado river.
Tyler Morales
>Avatar Press >good
they are meh at best, the only good things they have produced is Uber, and some Crossed stories.
Hunter Young
Titan and DH are the definition of pleb, they pump out shitty licensed comics while Black Mask puts out aesthetic arthouse comics that don't adhere to typical tropes that infest the modern comic landscape. They're basically Image if Image had quality control.
Jason Murphy
> (OP) >How would calexit even work wouldn't they die of thirst?
It would be Civil War 2, only way shorter.
Turns out, having a huge economy based on tech means diddly shit when plain old-fashioned bullets become a factor. Cut off the electricity, cut off the water, end of conflict.
Your mighty I-Phone isn't helping you there.

Jason Morales
>Fuck California
I'm honestly surprised at how common this sentiment is. Californian's all seem to think their fair state is the promised land, but you couldn't PAY ME to go back that shit hole.
Jack Garcia
California absolutely would not secede, at least in this situation. IMO the biggest problem with the current administration in California is the removal of state funded healthcare, so it would be completely backwards to want leave the union in order to get government funded healthcare.
Gabriel Diaz
I like avatar. Like how they used to be some generic softcore porn comic publisher until they decided to start giving complete creative freedom to Moore, Ellis, Gillen, etc. Their quality is debateable but they got balls. It's the sort of thing i would do if i had a publishing company
Cooper Wright

I will be honest if they didnt had to kickstart their new comics i feel they would be able to produce more interesting stuff, like the stories in Cinema Purgatorio.
Lucas Allen
>I've never even heard of that before
This makes me very sad.
Go read "The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress" by Robert Heinlein.
If you like it, get really political and read "Starship Troopers".
Brody Morris
Im californian and I despise the ever living fuck of california, because of this fucking state I went from 'peace and love lol weed gunz r bad, democrats r gr8.' to fucking 'gas the hippys on my fucking lawn, nuke the west coast'.
Robert Parker
You are the reason why comics don't get respect.
Zachary Stewart
Why are you giving coverage and legitimacy to this stupid comic supporting an even stupider political movement.
t. liberal californian
Benjamin King
>>Holding a rifle like she can actually use it Oh hell fuck no. I don't know a damm thing about comic books, and I can smell the nogunz on the author from here.
Pick any spot in california. Two thirds of california hates that part of california as well.
They would get Dornered before they could even have enough time to get thirsty.
There actually ARE armed, violent leftists in america. But those fuckers aren't it. And open carry is banned in California, excepting some federal wildlands.
I can feel knife hands intensifying already.
Tyler Jenkins
Comics are for kids, you know. Do you honestly want to be seen in public reading the latest issue of ,say, DC Flintstones (an arguably excellent comic i tried recommending to all my normie friends at the risk of getting laughed at)?
Jordan Davis
Keep in mind this is the same site that mindlessly supports Trump and thinks that the holocaust was simultaneously justified and didn't happen.It's no wonder they would hate California no matter what they do.
Daniel Green
Would you be embarrassed being seen reading this in public? It's also a comic
Levi Jenkins
Comics haven't been for kids since the sixties. Even then they weren't exclusively for kids.
Caleb Russell
considering the NSFW content i wouldn't be reading it in public in the first place
Robert Murphy
Soft porn doesn't count

>dude commiefornia lmao >meanwhile the states with the highest dependency on federal aid are red states >California contributes the largest portion of the United States GDP >California puts out more in taxes toward the federal government than it gets back in funds >highest percentage of population that requires social, housing, and nutritional aid are states like Mississippi >California not only has the tech capital (Palo Alto/Silicon Valley) of the United States, it also has its cultural impact on the world (Hollywood), and is the bread basket for the west coast. >largest percentage of small business owners compared to places like Florida that simply has a lot of millionaires
Michael Parker
If California tried to secede an entire generAtion of leftists would be dead in a weekend.
In other words, go for it!
Michael Miller
what does this even mean, how would an entire generation just die out
Landon Perez
>dependency on federal aid are red states You're only looking at half the picture, they also have higher black population
Owen Murphy
Imagine what would happen when you get the US military, add to that a militia formed by Californians that never wanted to secede, versus the lefties that think seceding is a good idea.
Christopher Murphy
and? its still those states that require federal aid, not California which is one of the states that obviously require the least aid since it has a negative return on its federal taxes/economic output
Its also not like those black people just appeared out of nowhere. They are the remnants of slavery which is whose fault? They aren't there illegally unlike the so-called strain on federal funds that illegal mexicans in California are.
Jaxon Adams
>They are the remnants of slavery which is whose fault?
I don't know, whose fault is it?
Liam Rivera
also consider that Maryland, which has the 4th largest population of black people is actually the 20th most federally dependent state while South Carolina is 6th and Alabama is 4th both with a lower black population. Maryland is a deep blue state which means more taxes and more aid right?
Aiden Parker
California's got plenty of black people too, believe me.
Jose Cox
Question. What shit have the authors made before, and was it any good?
I would bet it never even got that far. The mainstrea left in the state wants big federal government programs, which obviously require a big federal government. They would get shut down like protestors at disneyland.
Julian Sanders
obviously if California fucking left the nation, it wouldn't require a big federal government because there would be no state/federal seperation
Camden Diaz
Love watching flyovers try to justify their shitty existences in their states by shitting on the best state.

It just fucking rained for almost a montj so much it took California out of a drought.

and East Coast for the win.
William Allen
So if California actually seceded, how much of it would actually go? Would the state in its entirety break off, or would it divide itself along geopolitical lines? Does this comic imagine an ideal scenario where the whole state is on board with it, or only places like San Fran?
