There were red flags, but I tuned them out.
So, as a refresher, they made "American Mary" and it was their first and last good horror movie, and I rooted for them to make the next good one for....wow 12 fucking years now.
Before that, was "Dead Hooker In A Trunk" which was your typical Tarantino clone.
Then after "Mary" came...
All of which were varying levels of "meh".
And, the red flags I ignored were all the wrestlers and Christian actors.
I chalked that up to desperation.
I wasn't being cynical and paranoid enough.
Well!! I randomly pratfell like a 40's comedian into what they're up to now!
Some libertarian douches made their own comic company, and the Soskas are writers for it.
A libertarian dingbat I know posted a Youtube ad for their junk.
I poked around their site, and there they were. The goddamned Soskas.
The PR for this company bends itself into pretzels not to utter "woke" or anything like it, but there's a lot of the weird dog whistle phrases like "comics like they used to be" and "a return to true beauty".
That last one means skimpy outfits, big tits, and women who are damsel-y.
How do I know this? Every CHUD comic "reviewer" I've ever suffered through has this fixation on missing giant jugs on comic girls.
Like, if they don't look like Dolly Parton in the 70's/80's, then they're "androgynous".
Muthafucka, 80's Storm and 80's Wolfsbane had a mohawk and a buzz cut respectively, and lonely nerds were getting plenty turned on, and writing horny letters, and this was before any of these little millennial turds were fucking born.
ANYWAY! Yeah, CHUDs want bikini costumes, and balloon tits back.
Even though they never lived through it.
Oh, and men being "overshadowed" really freaks them the fuck out.
We've got people being grabbed off the streets by ICE.
Imagine the spoiled privilege it reveals that your worst worry is if Captain Marvel is plotting to rip your pee-pee off in a stray nightmare.
Then to need comics by Nazis where women are "back in their place" to make the pee-pee nightmare go away.
Anyway!! The Soskas.
They write the bad-guys/monsters.
Cuz these other Christian-libertarian weirdo creeps can't come up with good monsters who aren't Greta Thunberg.
Isn't it ironic how you have to sell your soul to the Devil to put up with fucking Christians?
Jesus Tapdancing Christ. Literally.
Oh, and this isn't all me theorizing with a cork board, I did due diligence on the company's founder, and he's a right-wing podcaster.
I skimmed his channel, and his guests are the usual gang of idiots.
Dude's black, so the Nazis use him as a shield.
But it's the same old crap out of his mouth.
It's always the same crap with libertarians. There's never new business with these guys.
But, y'know, edge-lord comedy, and now edge-lord horror have turned loose gaggles of fascists.
I keep learning this shit the hard way, don't I?
Well, I always told these conservative dimwits to go off and do their own thing instead of perpetually bitching about Marvel/DC.
They finally went and did it.
I think their political message is poisonous, and I hope savvy kids don't fall for their jive.
But....Image was shit back in the day; not necessarily crypto-fascist, just terrible, and the kids that grew up on it look back as adults with ironic laughter now.
So, let's hope the saps who buy this junk look back on it as their Image, and/or their Chick Tracts.
Let's hope sanity prevails.
As for the Soskas, I'll never truly know if they're true believers, or cynics prostituting their talents.
But, once you cross the Rubicon, it hardly matters.
They're far gone now.
Like Gwen Stefani, they were probably always stealth-conservative.
Oh, yeah, I just finally got the memo on her too.
Hasn't been a good couple months for celebrities being ruined.
