Yes I will support every comic kickstarter I can, because we need more comics in the world, and comic artists need to be paid fairly. 🪄

I think that comic book artists should make a lot of money. For many reasons, including but not limited to
1) art is cool, comics are cool
2) everyone deserves money
3) cartoonists make us happy
4) let’s be honest, they make millions of dollars for everybody else

so funny when someone says they ‘just’ used chat gpt for some specific thing, clearly hoping extract some kind of ‘that’s fine then’ sentiment… I’m afraid that’s not going to stop me losing respect for you lol. I wouldn’t ask it for water if I was on fire
