The Alt★Hero troll

It appears this is the “expert” in comics who has been denigrating the Alt★Hero project, falsely claiming to know what our costs are, and engaging in a futile attempt to demoralize us and our backers while sock-puppeting under three different names, Death Ray, Vox Diabolus, and Zardoz.

“Filth are my politics! Filth is my life! That is why I cartoon for MAD magazine (Scooby Don’t, Detective Slow-On-The-Draw and others), publish my own vile comics (Deep Fried, Weapon Brown and Clarissa), and otherwise drag all that is Art down to my level–right below the CHUDs!”

No wonder he’s so angry about the mere existence of Alt★Hero. He’s not entirely without talent, but I don’t know why anyone would ever want to work with him now after seeing how unprofessional his behavior appears to have been, both here and on the campaign page.

Social justice warriors are neither well-meaning nor are they on the side of truth and beauty. It’s not hard to understand why they reliably produce so much ugliness and falsehood.


Fake gun control converts

The media is attempting to build a false narrative around people being magically converted to gun control by the recent events in Las Vegas.

The lead guitarist of a country music band playing Route 91 Harvest festival, where a gunman murdered 58 people on Sunday night, has said the horrific experience of the attack has changed his views on gun laws in America.

“I’ve been a proponent of the [second] amendment my entire life,” Caleb Keeter posted on Twitter. “Until the events of last night. I cannot express how wrong I was.”

In the chaotic hours after the attack, which began around 10pm, the members of the Josh Abbott Band were eventually able to post a message on social media, saying that the band and crew were safe. “I’ll never unhear those gunshots; and our band [and] crew will never forget how that moment made them feel,” singer Josh Abbott wrote on Twitter. “Our hearts are with all the victims.”

But Keeter went further, describing the deadliest shooting in modern US history as a revelation. He said that members of the band’s crew have concealed handgun licenses, and legal firearms on the bus.

“They were useless,” he said. “We couldn’t touch them for fear police might think that we were part of the massacre and shoot us. A small group (or one man) laid waste to a city with dedicated, fearless police officers desperately trying to help, because of access to an insane amount of firepower. Enough is enough.”

The feeling, he wrote, “was enough for me to realize that this is completely and totally out of hand. We need gun control RIGHT. NOW,” he added. “My biggest regret is that I stubbornly didn’t realize it until my brothers on the road and myself were threatened by it.”

There are two significant problems here. First of all, the band’s concealed handguns weren’t useless for fear of the police, but because the shooter was 300 YARDS AWAY. Knives, fists, and other close-range weapons were also useless, but then, very few criminal engagements take place at a range of 300+ yards. As for the “dedicated, fearless police officers” who took 72 minutes to not engage a single shooter, the less said the better.

Second, Caleb Keeter is a liar, as proved by his own archived tweets. He always was a gun control advocate, he simply happened to be dubious about the federal government’s ability to do so effectively.

18 December 2012
The Feds can’t even balance a checkbook and we trust them to deal with gun legislation? Gotta be done at a state level, if you want it folks

18 December 2012
We’re talking about a Federal Government composed of scummy, awful people. Contact your STATE representatives if you want gun control.

6 Jan 2013
Maybe they should have psychological tests for gun purchases?

On a related note, I think this guy won Twitter today and it’s not even 9 AM Eastern.

Hey @Calebkeeter the Dixie Chicks are looking for a guitar player for their Pyongyang show.


I think they’re done laughing

The SJW Trigger Sequence:

  1. LOL! LMAO! LMFAO! HAHAHAHAHA! So very ha!
  2. Me no care. Give zero fucks.
  3. ANGER! FURY! HATE HATE HATE! RAGE!

GAYLIEN‏ @GuyWithOpinion1
You know, I usually just laugh at you, but honestly fuck off and die. You don’t get to shit on Jack fucking Kirby’s grave, you Nazi fuck.

Supreme Dark Lord‏ @voxday
Sure I do. He was a midget, a bullshitter, and he couldn’t draw hands or ears. I see we’ve gone from Stage One to Stage Three.

Drew Habits‏ @DrewHabits
If Jack Kirby were alive today, he’d probably kick your ass with his 100-year-old muscles while you pooped your Dukes of Hazzard underoos

Supreme Dark Lord‏ @voxday
Jack Kirby was a midget and a bullshitter. He wasn’t kicking anyone’s ass, except maybe a little girl’s.

Ten‏ @tenryuuwu
if kirby were alive today he’d steal your lunch money and give you a swirly

Supreme Dark Lord‏ @voxday
That’s antisemitic. Jews are not all thieves. And Kirby wasn’t big enough to pick me up, let alone give me a swirly.

Whatever happened to all the laughing? Well, they’re clearly not triggered or anything.

By the way, I performed a little science at the gym today, testing out hypotheses. It turns out I could curl the little midget four times cleanly, six if I cheated. Figure eight at peak.

UPDATE: Now MovieBob is weighing in.


The original Comics-SJW

I’ve been a little taken aback by the sheer vituperation of the SJWs triggered by the mere existence of the Alt⭐️Hero concept, at least at this very early stage. And, I confess, I have been more than a little surprised by their apparent confusion between the late Marvel/DC artist Jack Kirby and the superheroes that he drew.

Ayatollah Cumonme‏ @Phonycian
if jack kirby were alive today he’d kick you in the balls and spit on you

Supreme Dark Lord‏ @voxday
If Jack Kirby were alive today, he’d be asking to work for me. The SJWs at Marvel and DC today wouldn’t employ him.

rstevens  @rstevens
kirby would cook you and serve you to hogs, dude

Supreme Dark Lord‏ @voxday
You’re talking about the little Jewish guy with no biceps, right? Sure, he might draw that.

psychopompous‏ @prognostiq
you really have fucking clue huh. i mean, not surprising but… you’re not fit to shine his shoes, bud.

Supreme Dark Lord‏ @voxday
Shine his tiny little size five shoes? I shall endeavor to restrain my disappointment.

Jo O’Donnell ⚘‏ @bowtiednomad

Supreme Dark Lord‏ @voxday
A dead guy who went 5’4 and weighed about 125? You’ve read way too many comic books. You know they’re not real, right?

meth lab for cutie‏ @patrickmustdie
jack kirby would of wooped your ass and then tell the story for laughs at parties for years

Supreme Dark Lord‏ @voxday
Kirby used to brag about fighting a guy who didn’t show up. I made the Commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps tap out in less than 7 seconds.

As strange as it is to be threatened with a very small corpse, I understand that comic book fans enjoy this sort of theoretical matchup. So, just to be clear, this is Jack Kirby in his physical prime, with his wife, Roz. This is another picture of KirbyThis is me, with Spacebunny. Another picture of me. Yes, both pictures were a long time ago, but nevertheless, I am confident that I have maintained myself in rather better condition than Mr. Kirby has.

Jack Kirby’s tough guy story: Once, while Jack was in the Timely office, a call came from someone in the lobby. When Kirby answered, the caller threatened Jack with bodily harm if he showed his face. Kirby told the caller he would be right down, but by the time Jack reached street level, there was no one to be found.

Vox Day’s tough guy story: In his second public ringfight, his opponent, a Tae Kwan Do practitioner, broke Vox’s nose in the initial exchange. Vox didn’t notice it until his sensei called time out to stop the bleeding. After the time out, Vox caught his opponent coming in with a sidekick that doubled him over, and proceeded to throw alternating hooks to both sides of the defenseless man’s head until the referee stopped the fight in the first round and declared Vox the winner. After the fight, Vox went to the hospital to get his nose straightened out. Mostly.

For what it’s worth. Anyhow, what explains this weird elevation of Jack Kirby to demigod status by the Comic SJWs? The answer, as it turns out, is that they believe him to have been their much-revered forefather who blazed the social justice trail they so bravely tread today.

X-Men creator Jack Kirby was the original comic book social justice warrior

Over the past week, comic book enthusiasts have been celebrating the late artist Jack Kirby’s birthday by remembering the impact he had on the industry. From his iconic stories and characters to his contentious relationship with Marvel, Kirby’s legacy is a rich and memorable one. A massive part of this legacy was that Kirby was always telling stories — through his heroes like the X-Men, the Thing, the Hulk — of being an outsider and becoming a hero despite living in a world that’s seemingly out to get you. And there are still people fighting battles today in the spirit of Kirby’s legacy.

The past few years in the comic book industry have been underscored by a struggle for more diversity. And while it can get ugly, sexist, and racist, there’s plenty of good to come out of this battle. Case in point: the hugely successful Ms. Marvel series featuring Kamala Khan, a Pakistani-American Muslim teenager. More characters like Kamala is what Kirby would have wanted.

In the spirit of remembering Kirby, writer Saladin Ahmed tweeted and pointed to a 1990 interview with the Comics Journal, where Kirby explained that he was compelled to create the superhero Black Panther because the default had always been white characters. And one day, he realized he was ignoring how important it was for him, and for the comic book industry, to reflect humanity.

So, yeah. This is going to be SO MUCH FUN. You know how SJWs love nothing better than to deconstruct our historical heroes and literally tear them down? Well, as I have pointed out, any use of a tactic legitimizes it….

And they’re totally NOT TRIGGERED! NOT EVEN A LITTLE!

Georgie‏ @SilverDoe_Iso
Thanks to the delightful replies to this idiot, I was made aware of Faiza Hussein, and just ordered myself a comic ?

Well, that certainly shows me! By the way, in the Marvel universe, Faiza Hussein is the current bearer of the sword Excalibur. That’s right. In Marvel’s world, King Arthur’s blade is wielded by a Muslim woman.

But it must be confessed that it is true that the artists of Alt⭐️Hero don’t draw women like Jack Kirby did. Then again, why they would want to do so remains a mystery to me. I leave it to the reader to guess which image below is Mr. Kirby’s work and which is not. And, in case you’re interested, I should probably mention that we anticipate launching the Freestartr campaign tomorrow.


Can Star Trek be converged?

Or is that an intrinsically redundant concept? ST:D answers the question:

As for the Klingons, they’ve received the biggest redesign of the series, both physically (the design falls somewhere between the ridged foreheads of Next Generation and subsequent shows, and the rebooted race from Star Trek Into Darkness) and aesthetically, with the Klingon outfits taking on an ornate, golden style that’s different from anything seen on Trek series before. Discovery’s Klingons are also fiercely religious, seeming to worship Kahless the Unforgettable, the first Klingon ruler to unite the species, and the founder of the Klingon Empire.

The new Klingons are also incredibly devoted to the idea of Klingon culture above all else — T’Kuvma, the Klingon leader, has a rallying cry of “Remain Klingon,” and while he is (relative to the other Klingon houses) open to accepting any Klingon, even those considered to be outcasts, he loathes the Federation ideals of equality, diversity, and peace. It’s easy to draw parallels to America’s current political atmosphere, where issues of isolationism and racial supremacy are sadly rearing their ugly heads again — which the showrunners absolutely intended, according to an interview with Entertainment Weekly.

Yes, believe it or not, you can actually turn the SJW convergence up to 11, even on Star Trek. I’m genuinely surprised that they didn’t name the Klingon leader D’Drumpf. And can there be any doubt that a villain will eventually appear with fabulous hair and a name like Y’Milo?

All the media reviews are positive, which tends to suggest that the show is going to tank faster than DC Comics introducing a gay black Superman in a wheelchair.


The SJW media and the NFL

I appeared on Cernovich Media last night discussing the connection between SJWs in the media and the NFL protests.

 
If you’d like to skip ahead to my appearance, you can click here. Cernovich Media is absolutely killing it on Facebook video; clearly we’re going to have to get rolling with that for Voxiversity and Alt-Hero. Anyhow, my thesis is that it is the media that is primarily responsible for this, not the players, due to the way in which they have tirelessly advocated the cause of Colin Kaepernick’s employment for the last year.

Instead of addressing the anthem protest issue directly last year by disciplining Kaepernick, NFL thought it would go away once the ex-49er quarterback was out of the league. And they probably would have been right, were it not for the media SJWs taking up the cause of Kaepernick’s non-employment as some sort of holy crusade to atone for their having missed the grand campaign for a starting black Super Bowl-winning quarterback of the 1970s and 1980s.

And if you haven’t signed up for the Daily Meme Wars yet, you’re missing out. Don’t do that.


Trump nails down Pennsylvania for 2020

The only Steeler to stand for the national anthem, Alejandro Villanueva, a former US Army Ranger.

Alejandro Villanueva was the lone Pittsburgh Steelers player who appeared on the pitch and sang while the rest of his team remained in the locker room as part of a silent protest that’s sweeping the country’s football pitches. The player, who has served in Afghanistan, has become a simple of patriotism — and now sales of his jersey have gone through the roof. It jumped the Steelers jersey sellers league on Fanatics.com, and now stands at one of the top sellers for the entire league, behind Carson Wentz and Aaron Rodgers.

This will not end well for the NFL. It’s going to be very interesting to see how the Week 3 TV ratings play out. Based on the hints from things such as Villanueva’s jersey sales, I would guess we’ll see a decline of 20 percent or more.


SJWADD excerpt

Unearthed this beautiful example of an SJW tactic just today. Watching SJWs attempt to babble incoherently about logic is rather like watching monkeys chewing the covers off of books and bragging how they’ve totally got this “reading” thing down.

Andrew Flick‏ @AndrewFlick87
So many logical fallacies here.

Supreme Dark Lord‏ @voxday
Name them. Specifically. Is it Ambiguity, Amphiboly, Combination, Division… wait, is it Accent?

Andrew Flick‏ @AndrewFlick87
Btw False equivalence is a logical fallacy in which two opposing arguments appear to be logically equivalent when they are not.

Supreme Dark Lord‏ @voxday
Yes, but that does not apply here. Where does the equivalence fail? Moreover, you said there were “so many” logical fallacies. How many, 8?

Andrew Flick‏ @AndrewFlick87
Promoting hate speech and promoting upholding of civil rights are not equivalent. Also, suck a big fat cock and choke on it. Have a nice day

And… flounce! Perfect. Absolutely perfect. There is plenty of this sort of thing, and more, in the forthcoming SJWs Always Double Down.


SJW tactics

I want to be sure that I didn’t forget any of them in the chapter of SJWADD devoted to them. I’m talking about the specific tactics, such as the “bait-and-report”, rather than the larger tendencies such as those described by the Three Laws of Social Justice.

If anything occurs to you, throw it out. I want to be as comprehensive as possible.


Journolist: Comics edition

A group of mainstream comic SJWs from Marvel and DC were caught planning to try to harass, and incite violence against, a critic of their work:

The comic book world has had its share of scandals, including the very recent and highly protested revelation that Captain America is really a Nazi, angering fans worldwide. Mark Waid, who recently took over the Captain America comic book for Marvel, has stepped into more hot water after appearing to call out a fan and popular YouTube reviewer for targeted harassment at this year’s Comic-Con on his Facebook page.

Richard Meyer has a YouTube channel called Diversity & Comics, where he reviews current comic books. Most of his reviews mock the overreaching and suffocating leftist messaging that has infiltrated the entire industry. I’ve seen enough of them to say with confidence that Meyer seems like a pretty nice guy with a passion for comic books. His reviews contain no swearing or major insults, just mild humor and a lot of chuckling.

To make matters worse and more embarrassing for the SJW crowd of comic book writers, a secret Facebook page was revealed where writers plotted to target Meyer with harassment meant to incite violence.

Taylor Esposito is a letterer for DC Comics and is clearly seen on the not-so-secret Facebook page insinuating that critics of their comics are likely to be violent, calling them “nutjobs.” Kelly Thompson of Marvel’s Star Wars Phasma and IDW’s infamous lady Ghostbusters joined in, claiming fear of the awful critics as the major reason she’s never been to a con as a professional. B. Clay Moore, who seems to have written something a long time ago, actually suggests harassing Meyer to the point of violence.

Meyer’s videos are low budget, filmed with his phone usually while sitting in his car or house flipping through comic books and chatting about the stories and plot lines, artwork and themes. It’s not exactly a hate crime. He is knowledgeable, interesting and intelligent and he clearly loves comic books. But he, and others like him, are facing an industry that seems to not want them anymore.

It’s going to be amusing to see just how upset these lunatics are next week. But in the meantime, it should surprise precisely no one that SJWs would attempt to destroy someone, however harmless and inoffensive he might be, for failing to submit to the Narrative.

If only it weren’t for those evil GamerGaters ComicGaters, they’d have gotten away with it too!

By the way, if anyone can suggest 3-5 examples of current SJW comics as bad as that recent She-Thor debacle, please put the links in the comments here. The more recent, the better.

UPDATE: Since I was apparently insufficiently clear, I am requesting links to the actual panels online, not YouTube videos or links to where the comic is sold.
