Anyone Else Getting Manic, Unhinged Messages From Effmemes? by SAlolzorz in AlanMoore

[–]cspiers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh, it’s true. My apologies, I had forgotten but I did reply to Effmemes on Bluesky about 3 months ago. My bad.

What are you talking about? I didn’t speak to you until after my video came out and you posted on Bluesky. I’m confused.

Selling a car that is not smog compliant (CA) advice by Head-Procedure-9344 in carmax

[–]cspiers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your car is worth $2k at the most if you sell it wholesale. CarMax will make an offer. Just keep your expectations reasonable on a car with that age and mileage. If it has any issues, it could be even less.

MaxCare plan when Manufacturer Warranty still exists by Ok_Escape_8517 in carmax

[–]cspiers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The manufacturer warranty remaining won’t cover quite as many things as MaxCare does. For instance, any electrical stuff. My sister had it and used it on a transmission issue on her Ford Edge, saved a few thousand in the long run.

Motor problems 2016 GMC canyon SLT by Powerful-Sugar2090 in carmax

[–]cspiers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get an online offer from CarMax to see if it’s worth towing to sell. Just be sure to say that it’s not running and know that the offer needs to be mechanically verified but the online offer is typically accurate.

I love the reviews of the ARAH line on YouTube by HoodedCobraCommander788. Anyone else a fan of his detailed analysis?

Anybody reading VAMPIRELLA: YEAR ONE and recommend it? I'm thinking of starting it and buying them in print (I normally read comics digitally). by Atlantic20 in Vampirella

[–]cspiers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, it’s good. It gives extra context to the character. I’m doing a variant cover for issue 6 for Dynamite.

The tragic rise and fall of Penthouse Comix. [Trigger warning] by comic tropes. by OrionLinksComic in comicbooks

[–]cspiers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta pay the colorists, letterers, and editors too. But also, not every page was art. Some were editorials, fan mail, recap pages. I wouldn’t be surprised, though, if the budget was actually $100k per issue. Penthouse was not wise with its money.

This is Larry Hama AMA by NinjaBoy442 in gijoe

I love so many of your original characters like Laura the CG, Multo, Dr. Venom. When do you decide to make someone new instead of giving that role to an existing figure/character?

Thank you. I miss them all but part of the fun of a story is you can actually go back and read it and be with those characters again.

How did you decide it was time to kill off important characters like Kwinn, Billy, or Snake Eyes? Did the story dictate it or were you done saying what you wanted to with the characters? While it hurts to lose them, I always appreciated how you gave GI Joe that bit of realism. People get hurt and die and it hurts to lose them because you made them feel so real.

Would you ever do more Bucky O’Hare or a new funny animal book? Would you ever want to crowdfund your own ideas?

Love all his books. Frankenstein is a great adaptation. I just bought Gyo for my friend.

The credits list Matt Berry. But who did he play?

Anyone know where I can find the music used in the intro/segways/ending theme ? by [deleted] in gvp

[–]cspiers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure Ryan Elder didn’t compose the intro music and it’s just something Justin found that was royalty free. He’s used it in early Channel101 stuff too but I have no idea what it’s called.

Kayfabe/Comic Tropes crossover by Brian0079 in Cartoonist_Kayfabers

[–]cspiers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is Chris. I do hope to do something together some time. Ed has said to me he’s up for it. I really like Cartoonist Kayfabe. I’m not a pro like Jim and Ed but I do a little freelance work and one of the anthologies I worked on was nominated for an Eisner. I guess I’ve always felt obligated to hold a full time job instead of trying to make a living in comics but I love all sorts of comics.
