I am so heartbroken that Captain America: Fighting Avenger never got off the ground. That’s probably the only time I would’ve gotten a Captain America book.
I’m going to buy The Supervillain Handbook for kindle now. This looks great.
Matt, you’re such an asshole. Now the world will never see Cyclical 2: Money Never Sleeps.
Everything I’ve come across about “the Beef” in his personal dealings leads me to believe he’s a bit of a spoiled, petulant man child. I now have a new example and didn’t know you had reviewed them. Coincidentaly, I checked out his “comic” prior to listening to the episode. It reminded me of something you might see a high school student scrawl on his textbook covers. That’s not a put down, just the level of effort, skill, and insight that these might offer to me by their execution.
I commented on Amazon about your book, Matt. Just letting you know. I loved it back when it was Hate You Forever, and I love it now.
Shia signs a few of his pictures “Shia 12.”
Initially I thought, “Hey, pretty good for a 12 year old.” And then I realized I had misinterpreted the signature.
