The $100 Mil was my joke donation
cmon man i even named the account freeze peach
not surprised they removed it, no bank will allow a charge of 100 mil on a CC

I bet you could get away with a bunch of shell accounts making smaller donations if they were realistic payable amounts (<=5k)

why did freestartr, the site with the american flag logo, censor your freezepeach

There are few enough Freestartrs that I could post them all, but here are a few. I saw there was a dance category and couldn't help exploring the site a little:

Vox Day is a pile of sentient smegma, and I am always down to watch people dunk on him/his garbage.

Everything last thing about this project is terrible. The name, the costume, the synopsis, that horrible pitch video, the fucking art. Just shit.
 
why is this a thing? Like are they so offended when some comics started to include minorities that they already feel so oppressed and aggrieved. These people are fuckin trash.

Confederate-flag looking superheroine and alternate history where the Nazis (but not "too Nazi") won World War II by nuking the Soviet Union?

This is about what you'd expect, i guess?

I love alt-history and such, but the whole premise of the military overthrowing Hitler in 1939 is beyond dumb and improbable. And things get progressively worse from there. Love how despite a radically different geopolitical world, the US is basically the same so they can have their leftist boogeymen.

I guess we'll see if these guys actually have a viable business catering to other jackasses and/or regressives, or if this will be one of those "it all falls apart/money's stolen/blame the Jews" type stories in the end.
 
Alt Hero?

don't they have more imagination?

Wait, I wouldn't be surprised if that's the best they came up with after trying dozens of variations of the word Nazi and still couldn't make it look like a real product.

Why... Why does the picture in the OP have her hands tied behind her back with her own costume and looking like they are also shoved into the back of her shorts?

I know! This reeks of the artist not being able to properly draw hands so they go with these convoluted poses to avoid drawing them.

Doesn't seem worth lookung into this anymore than what's provided in the post, but the art based on the image of the heroine looks pretty terrible for an alternative media to whats offered by professionals.

This says to me that these guys are in a very dangerous frame of mind, having a sort of neurosis maybe bordering psychosis. Them feeling the message they want is worth going through pages of mediocre art work? Not in a million years.
 
I review comic books. Wonder if I can get a free copy of this.

Actually tempted to try just to see what kind of train wreck this thing is. Also I hate myself.

This is for those who could not care less about comics, but enjoy tormenting SJWs and would enjoy the privilege of triggering them by being able to say “yeah, I did that.”

We will send you a special digital portrait of Rebel, in her Alt&#9733;Hero outfit, blowing a kiss and saying “You’re welcome!” that you can send to people crying about it on social media.

Oh my god

I did some brief canvasing of Reddit. The reason I’m seeing given as to why the alleged political pandering of Marvel and DC is a problem, but the blatant political pandering in this is ok, is because this is built form the ground up to be political with original characters and stories. As opposed to “ripping off” legacy heroes (I assume they mean stuff like Jane Foster Thor, Kamala Ms. Marvel, IronHeart, etc).

Which is… actually amusing if true. They’ll find out what Marvel and DC has long since discovered, and reason why they do stuff like put Tony in a coma so Riri can take over a for a few months: Creating new heroes from scratch seldom sell.

Putting that aside from a moment, what is the business plan here? Lets say they keep all that 100k. Is that enough to launch a comic? Enough to keep it going? And they want create a rival to the big 2, 100k isnt enough to do that. One comic is not a publishing house. Also how will this comic be distributed? Direct market via Diamond? Comixology/Amazon? And if so, wouldn’t they face the same problems that the direct market is dealing with now: Strong number ones followed by diminishing returns on every issue thereafter unless your name is Batman or Star Wars?
