Bought the Long Moonlight to support Razorfist, ended up reading it in 2 days a couple months back. Not a huge fantasy fan (more a Sci-Fi guy) but it was pretty good. Enjoyed more than I thought I would. 2nd one’s supposed to be dropping soon.
Hadn’t seen anyone else post it. Was off the site for the last week and a half, stuck in the hospital. You ain’t gonna be seeing this all too often, the Rippaverse is unique. It’s been 2 years in the making. With Eric July helming it, this has a legit chance of going head to head with DC & Marvel in the near future.
Given how successful it’s been so far, was willing to hazard adding to the feed spam to shout it out if someone hadn’t yet to try and give it an additional boost. Plus the entertainment value of watching leftists’ heads spin makes it worth buying simply for that.

I don’t think this will get the LOTR-HALO-Star Wars Treatment. FromSoftware don’t strike me as the kind of people to just rollover and let people do what they may with their properties. They’re a Japanese company, those guys never change their stuff to fit the political sentimentalities of the US. Can’t remember what company it was, but some new executive at a manga/anime company suggested that and he had to publicly apologize for the shitstorm he caused. He also gave back something like 20% of his salary. Most likely scenario would be them having direct over site with the filming and shopping it around afterwards. Wouldn’t be surprised it they went with an anime approach either.

You’re not wrong. There was an manga company that had their CEO say that the manga needs to cater more to “American sensibilities” and something about racism. The CEO had to make a public formal apology and return somewhere in the ballpark 25-50% of salary.
Nah it’s Superman’s kid that’s the gay one, it’s more “future state crap”.
Fingers crossed that DC goes under and someone who actually likes the character get ahold of it. Don’t know how likely that is to happen given that they’re owned by WarnerMedia, they’ll probably just eat the loss and keep publishing crap until it becomes to great just to hold onto the IP for movies/ shows/ etc.
