Ethan Van Sciver Creates a PATREON

I'm starting to think those rumors about DC letting him go as a freelancer are true.
On the heels of the bleeding cool thing, seems like the clock is ticking for EVS.

How is this one agonizingly mediocre artist getting so much attention?

Because one side loves him for his political leanings.
Another side detests him for his political leanings.
And because he has a history of being nice as hell but underneath a volatile nature.

Perfect storm.

Also he has lackeys here on Sup Forums if the thread a few days ago is of any proof

He's a Republican and speaks to people, this cannot stand.
>but underneath a volatile nature.
Post your blog again, some people here might not have had a chance to laugh at you yet.

Because youtube e celebs suck his dick and keep promoting him and their non comic reading outragefans keep treating the artist like a god.

Speaking of

Oh hai Kieran
Not easy is it

Shit meant this post

Yeah, this doesn't bode well for his career.

?? I was referring to this thread (), nothing against EVS just pointing a fun-fact

No surprise, Dan Didio is a democrat and Hillary Clinton supporter.

I am a literal vegan progressive who thinks he's a shitty artist and that his politics are deplorable...but he still got a raw deal. It's a dangerous precedent to set and it's just a witch Hunt.

He took down last nights Captain America sketch stream from his channel.
I imagine it's because he was asked if he had any comic ideas and he started talking about how he has story ideas for indie work and even said 1 or 2 Marvel pitches. Then he quickly changed the subject.

>story ideas for indie work
Would he even get work at Image? Who'd take him?

Good, hopefully that means DC really is done with him. I don't care if he goes to marvel

Darkhorse maybe? With the recent Disney acquisition of FOX they're about to lose most of their IP's

With his online reputation, no way in hell Marvel is taking him in.

Man, first Marvel took Star Wars. And then they took the other 3 ongoings Dark Horse actually pump out that aren't by Mignola. Rough.

Yoshida is EiC now and he's also on good terms with EVS. He's mentioned him quite a few times in his videos.

Yup. After 2019, shit is gonna be really rough for them unless they find another franchise or hit.

>saved by the shogun
Could he make Carol great again?

>Darkhorse maybe? With the recent Disney acquisition of FOX they're about to lose most of their IP's

You realize without these IPs, having these artists won't make them bank. Unlike Mignola they don't have their own independent projects and comics that can bring in money like Hellboy.

It helps though. Big names could be an initial draw, but if the content is awful... yeah, they're fucked.

fuck him for flash rebirth anyway

>EVS
>big name

Like his art or not, he is a big name. He's more of a falling star these days though.

is he though, besides both rebirths what has he done that's popular

Why do people deny this?

Nice shilling. But he really is a nobody in the industry.

How am I shilling? He's not even a favorite artist of mine. A nobody got the fucking intro to DC Universe Rebirth? A nobody worked on some of the biggest DC titles of the 00's? Damn, I wish I was a nobody.

His career isn't what it used to be. But I'm not gonna deny the truth because I dislike his art. That's stupid and juvenile.

That was more Cereal man's fault

Because diminishing people and their personal achievements is(literally) in the handbook. The first response to his thread

This. He might not be attached to any major stories right now, but he was fairly big back in the 00s

Nope! EVS was the one that approached DiDio about it and said that he and Geoff should be the ones to do it. He talks about it in a few videos and it's in the Flash Rebirth commentary.

No, he even takes responsibility for it.
Geoff is more of a wallyfag anyway

Patreon is for people who don't want to work for money

What bothers me about EVS doing this, is that he doesn't even know why he likes Barry. Doing all his commentary videos for Flash Rebirth, he keeps saying really vague shit like "Guys, Barry Allen is great, he's... he's a really good guy and has his head on his shoulders." or "How can you not like him, he's just a really good guy." It never goes beyond that. Yet when he talks about Wally, he goes into detail and has talking points. Yet prefers Barry. It's strange.

If it's not a sign that his income just took a big hit, I don't know what is.

If he cannot sell a comic just on his name, then he's not a big name.

Does any non-CW watcher even likes Barry? I don't understand DC's constant push for this character. Geoff should've told him to fuck off with the Rebirth.

It's a shame he has to resort to Patreon bucks

Fucking Michael Turner. Most under rated artist

RIP

Does Marvel really care about their staff's online reputation? Granted, no one has done the weird stalking stuff that EVS has been accused of, but they still employ Spencer, Slott, and Waid, and all three of them have reputations for being assholes on twitter.

Vox Day offered him a job on Alt-Hero
EVS declined because he was enjoying his time at DC and he thinks Vox is a piece of shit

I meant his political views. Even the Shogun is held back by the leash i doubt he can do anything.

Dark Horse better start sweet talking Nintendo to let them make actual licensed comics, or else they're going to be sucking the Mignola dick bone dry.

If you can pay Image to get your comic out, I think follow their new rule of having the first 2 or 3 issues completed, and not cause a huge backlash, then Image will take you.

>Another side detests him for his political leanings
Hahaha
Then why is Chuck Dixon not getting this backlash?

Because Chuck Dixon doesn't make his shit public and acts like an adult. He doesn't bait or make videos that call attention to his political leanings. You know, like people used to do.

Chuck Dixon doesn't have a show where he invites people that say dumbass shit.

Dixon has made his shit public though. His views on gays are out there, and he even said he believes big two stopped working with him because he was conservative. And now he's working with D&C.

He told a fan to kill himself and sent his followers to harass a guy because he became friends with his wife

He's working for Vox "I can beat up Kirby" Day

Right my mistake, all these guys blend together.

Not in the same way EVS has. Dixon has said off color shit in various interviews. EVS has an entire YouTube channel with anti-SJW videos and bait topics. He has/had a twitter where he's always having a a laugh and baiting people. I'm not saying he's right or wrong. He just has a platform where he engages head on with the people he considers the enemy.

>his wife

Ex-Wife. Sharris Van Sciver left him due to infidelity reasons. Something of course Ethan won't mention. She was the sweetest woman on the Comic Bloc back in the day and even became a mod. When he cheated on her she had a meltdown on the Bloc and her facebook before deleting it. Everyone felt so god damn bad for her.

Source?
I don't want any dumb gossip floating around

He's not going to Marvel.
Way too many big names there hate him.

That was certainly wild and a completely normal reaction.

DnC got semi popular and he started giving EVS a lot of attention after whole he's a Nazi debacle.

>make a few tweets
>everyone gets triggered
>use patreon to squeeze your IDF members out of their money

Jesus it's so easy

Didn't Simone say she hopes to do a Green Arrow vs Hawkman fight one day because she saw Waid and EVS arguing and wrote down what they said?

D&C is the DSP/Mr Enter/Arin Hanson/Keemstar of comics
He's only popular because he makes a dozen drama videos a week

There are people here who are from both sides. Sup Forums will make a certain post or commemt and then DnC will talk about it or the SJWs will mention it in twitter.

Like the Alfie rhing, someone on Sup Forums linked to it and the blog is old and abandoned, but within the hour Tess Fowler was tweeting about it.

Also a lot of comic opinions that anons in Sup Forums make about certain comics or very complaints about them or certain SJW creators, they are repeated by DnC in his videos.

Do any other non-webcomic artists/writers at DC or Marvel have a Patreon? Is Ethan seriously the only one getting youtube, superchat, ebay, and patreon money along with his commissions and paycheck?

He's talking about the mass deletions and bannings for linking screenshots of EVS being an asshole.

I know Jim Zub has one.

I never really understand what these patreons are for.

Well Zub does a lot of other stuff, I like his Tabletop Rpg podcast.

That's because EVS is getting fired from DC.

>D&C complained about Brandon Graham drawing transexual pornstars on his tumblr
>Graham gets dozens of messages saying he is ruining marvel comics

Comics doesn't get you a lot of money and is a wishy washy type of media, unless you're an exclusive because then you get guaranteed books and pay.
Artists especially don't get paid enough. I really wish I could find it again, but there was a survey of some writers and artists in the industry about how much they get paid at each publisher per page and some other stuff. I remember one thing about artists and it was they need more than just interiors and covers to make a living, they need commissions from cons and online as well.

graham is living the life

Boinking cuties and making comics

True, when he said he was quitting twitter most of his followers were asking him if he wasn't going to make more twitter drama videos because they loved those. DnC also mentions in one of his videos that the twitter videos get more views than the comic review ones.

>Sent his followers after Graham
>Sent his followers after Busiek
>Is so stupid he was surprised when a comic broke apart in water when he did his underwater Aquaman review
>People see him as the biggest hope for comics
>people seriously think he's a threat

TAKING BETS
How long until he's going to be drawing a book for Vox or D&C or some other #comicgate™ wannabe?
Never thought Dixon would go as low to do that but I guess gay marriage destroyed him, so getting fired will probably do it for EVS.

>loved those
GEEZ, ITS LIKE THEY NEVER CARED ABOUT THE INDUSTRY TO BEGIN WITH
ITS LIKE THEY NEVER CAME FOR ACTUAL COMIC DISCUSSION

He made it clear that he doesn't like Vox and probably knows about his comments on Kirby (Seriously, why didn't Rich the cuck tell anyone about that shit and only Sup Forums noticed)
Also Chuck says the pay is good amd that his Alt Hero stuff wont be political

You can't be serious.
>you are serious
Oh damn.

>Is so stupid he was surprised when a comic broke apart in water when he did his underwater Aquaman review
That one really activated my almonds. How does anyone take him seriously let alone stay his fan after that video?

This is why I don't pay attention to all of this, dude is gonna go down over his own stupidity sooner or later

I thought he had a wife before Sharris, he made a video a few weeks ago with his infant daughter and with him getting out of his home and a blonde woman that looked like Sharris was there.

Also I'm surprised Sharris didn't shoot him then.

he's a decent artist for modern comics

>that his Alt Hero stuff wont be political
lol

I just don't understand why people that don't read comics want them "saved" so much

What's with the random Aquaman stab?

Diversity & Comics has a history with Aquaman.

Or was it this?

See 3rd point

Low hanging fruit

youtube.com/watch?v=HQ4fvtM_mQg

Remember 30% of the country have no sense of humor, literally.

I doubt he knew about that video and just went with Aquaman since he's an easy target

More EVS drama

Also he's banned feom Byrne's forum for talking shit about Byrne on comicbloc but I wouldn't blame EVS for that, Byrne is shit.

Whatever you need to believe.
