Without the music tugging at the heartstrings, or the haters calling it a psyop... no one can't deny that even for just one day a family's life was impacted for the better simply because Ethan liked a book and shared it to a huge audience. Dare I say it, heartwarming.
Seeing that wee girl happy, hugging her dad, who just sold many of his books thanks to you and everyone who supported Leem, was really a sight for sore eyes. CG can be a force of good in the middle of all the evil and injustice around us. Thank you, Ethan.
Watching the genuine appreciation from the Leem family, and the joy from their little girl, was especially heartwarming. This story really sets the bar on how uplifting CG can be. Ethan's seal of approval is magical indeed. I'm glad I backed and was a small part of it.
@@daveb8891 The pit of superchats he's been luxuriating in? Pretty sure he's quite happy right where he is. And well done to Liam, if it's as good as EVS claims this could turn out to be huge.
This was sooo cool of ethan and malin letting us know about liams book, this is what cg is about lifting eachother up unlike Mr. blah blah blah bullshit blah blah im great.
Say what you want about personalities and what things may have been done in the past, I firmly believe everyone deserves a second chance and everyone deserves a win. Ethan's honorability and honesty in this is awesome and has helped change the life of a man and his family. Thank you for being transparent Ethan despite what others may think
I freakin' love this. What a gift to be able to lift someone up and celebrate their achievements. Thank you, for bringing the fans something new and amazing, and for shining a light on a talent who has not been illuminated enough.
⭐I'm DinoKing backer 145. I actually didnt want to miss out on something special. No matter who made it. This shows EVS character. His REAL character. Lungavtake notes. If your comic is good. EVS will give it a fair review.....No matter WHO IT IS. If it's good. EVS will say so and back it. That's a really comic professional. I can't wait to read it ⭐
EVS has done a good job of addressing the real problem of popular RU-vidrs putting out lackluster comic books, but it's a really welcome change that he is now also shining a spotlight on an example of a good comic from an indie creator. Good examples are going make his point a whole lot stronger, and it's a great way to balance out the conversation and bring some positivity into the mix.
EVS is in the unenviable position of a kingmaker. It kinda sounded like if he thought the manga was mid someone's kids would go hungry... Fucking hell. Who needs or wants this sort of power?
@@ComicArtistProSecretsOh I know. I appreciate your focus on the craft, but you have to admit this situation clearly shows it's about more than just the product sometimes. It's peoples lives that are at stake. Including lives of little people like in this video... Maybe there should be more room in CG for artists who are just getting to the level you expect of cg kings. I can't help but wonder: what if the book was bad and your review scathing? What effect would that have had on their lives? What if you ignored the book because of the previous output of the author or the style you don't care for? This makes me think that maybe some more moderate voices are required. Voices that will objectively judge the output, but give the author the help they need if one can see that some support might make them a powerhouse in a few campaigns. I don't mean you or other cg kings need to be those people specifically. Strong voices are needed as well, but some counterweight to them might do everyone some good. It would be a shame if promising artists were flushed down the drain because of a few bad comics. It seems like in CG, and the indie scene in general, is very sink or swim. Either you figure it out at the deep end or you will get fucked by life stuff. I can see how it can be fucking daunting to process all of this campaign/production shit and work on your craft at the same time. I'm rambling a bit, but I hope you see what I mean. Maybe do a half snark power reviews of young artists sometimes? Give a smaller campaign a push during Trashcast unprompted? I would love to see more scenes like we've seen in this video and I think you and other cg kings have all the power to make that happen. This hobby is filled with an insane ammountn of negativity and maybe it's time to balance that a bit. Not only make CG a sales powerhouse, but also a force for growing comics in general. Rant over. Love the show.
@@SpentAmbitionDrain you're the dude that took too much acid and is now looking at all of your friends like they're leeches sucking you dry of energy, and scaring them in the process. It's going to be ok. It's just comics.
@@qrevere5546You are reading way to much into this. I would just like people to succeed. I'm not suggesting EVS is even remotely responsible for other peoples careers or lives. He is absolutely not.
@@SpentAmbitionDrain lol I tell you you're reading too much into something and you respond by telling me I'm reading way too much into something. Define projection.
