FEBRUARY 2008 SALES CHARTS & MARKET SHARE REPORT- X-Force is #1

[Egotastic]

Yeah, him too.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, the growing number of swipers hurts my soul. I just learned the other day that Scot Eaton is a no talent hack.

Why?

 

[Egotastic]

Why?

Because he's a no talent swiper. I thought that was pretty obvious from the exchange.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, *****ebag, I meant what did he swipe?

 

[Egotastic]

Yikes. Strike a nerve?

From what I've seen/read/heard, pretty much all of his Captain America issues were various swipes from various artists and most of his Thor run was swiped from other material.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Pff, pics or it didn't happen.

 

[Darthphere]

Lawl!

 

[Egotastic]

I'm not your mom. Find your own. Just Google "Scot Eaton swipes."

 

[Darthphere]

Apparently, this was earlier in his career, and he was even more heinous than Land because he was just using panels from other comics and making them his own. Apparently, he did this on Thor.

 

[Egotastic]

Yeah, from the examples I've seen, it's been on Thor and Cap. It's a shame because now I just look at his work and wonder if it's original.

 

[Darthphere]

He hasn't been caught since, LITG would be on that like white on rice. It's sad how that column has bred a new breed of fanboy that seem like they exclusively read comics just to catch swipes.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

I still can't find any specific examples of it.

A .9 second Google search gave me this. You fail at intarwebs.

 

[Darthphere]

Damn!!n!nu#@ug*ugedy*guhf

Aw, Eaton.

At least he has good taste, I guess.

 

[Anubis]

I'm sorry, but I've never quite given a s**t about swiping of work. As long as it looks good I don't care if it's a collage or an original.

 

[TheCorpulent1]

You and Greg Land should eat cupcakes together after school.

 

[Egotastic]

Swiping just makes me appreciate the guys who don't resort to it that much more.

 

[Darthphere]

I'm sorry, but I've never quite given a s**t about swiping of work. As long as it looks good I don't care if it's a collage or an original.

I pretty much agree, but guys like Mack, Eaton and even Land are talented enough to not resort to that.

 

[Egotastic]

Apparently Mack is not talented enough to resort to it...

 

[Darthphere]

Apparently Mack is not talented enough to resort to it...

Yeah, I mean not even Eaton or land are that blatant.

But that seems to be the only time it's happened because they haven't been able to find any other instances.

 

[Egotastic]

When I read about this Mack business, I wanted to cry. That's just...sad.

 

[MattXG]

Its downright CRIMINAL that ASM sells better than USM.

 

[Darthphere]

Its downright CRIMINAL that ASM sells better than USM.

You know whats criminal? That ASM and USM sell better than CRIMINAL.

 

[ragingdemon155]

Its downright CRIMINAL that ASM sells better than USM.

I agree.

I personally feel that the sales for ASM will drop off. Heh at least I really f***ing hope so
