Did you follow that while comics gate thing?
Somewhat, basically a bunch of comic pros were purged from Marvel and DC due to not being woke or bending the knee. So they left and started making their own comics with their own ideas. Eric July was a comics fan that was calling out the woke changing and basically ruining classic characters or even trying to replace often the white male heroes with DEI replacements. So he ended up making a comic and made his own site for people to preorder it which blew up and made a million in around 24 hours ending with over 3 million. Basically giving him the funds to make his own comic book studio and warehouse controlling everything himself over selling the IP to a copro or giving them a share. Basically Kamen America and Rippaverse are two new IPs/studios that doing well and basically growing to slowly beome more mainstream. Kamen America is BIG in Japan, to the point it just got a Street Fighter Crossover Comic with Udon. As for Rippavese it's now popping out comics every 2 or 3 months and though they still doing preorders it's now a few weeks over a month or two. So they're not longer do million a comic pre-orders but they are selling current and older comics as they don't stop printing the old ones so people can catch up like manga.

Pretty much all the comics have been pre-orders. The only fundraising Eric has done that I can remember that was with Rippaverse was for the animation projects after people asked for it.

What scam did he ran? Also outside of the advert for his wife business which no one minded he did, in fact I think that came to be due to a joke he made that the chat said he should do.

One more thing, I read the comics and it's not how you would say "anti-woke." It's just a good comic. I am guessing you don't like the guy since you called him a grifter but don't have a example of why he is. Meaning you just basically saying whatever name calling you can to discredit him.

So do you have anything to back anything you said up, or are you just hatin?

What I was talking about is the 2023 ComicBooks for Kids thing.

He sold copies of his own book at half price (17.50) so buyers could donate them to kids in hospitals.

Cool.

He still kept the margin on a book that costs a few bucks to print and used sick kid branding to move units.

He didn't steal from cancer kids, he used the idea of helping sick kids to make money.

Do you know how much per unit it cost? Or how many he had just floating around in his warehouse??

His own numbers from 2023 were extra 50k copies of Isom 1 Cover C cost almost 125k. That’s like 2.50 a book on a reprint. Few months later he sold Cover C for 5 to clear the warehouse. So these were not some precious 35 items.

Idk why you think I'm just saying shit.
