honestly I'm a lot less annoyed by this than I was by Marvel Zombies

And Prime also had the misfortune of being *excruciatingly* 90s like the rest of the Ultraverse. I mean, that's hardly a fatal flaw — c.f. Alan Moore's run on Supreme — but still, the Ultraverse characters look painfully dated.

this leads me to wonder what else people knew when

occasional references like in Exiles and such

and he says that part of it is because of the complexities of the contracts and the royalty structures for the creators, but that the primary reason is some "dirty laundry" he didn't want to air

this was over a decade before Jones was arrested

also the mention of Gerard Jones in further discussions led me to discover that Joe Quesada said that, despite Marvel now owning all of Malibu's IP (give or take, I'm not a lawyer and I don't know the nuances of the contracts), there are no plans to revive the characters or universe aside from…

Nah, this is always a case of "I got away with it so I'm going to do it more and harder" and, sadly, for most things aside from this, once you do your apology tour you get your career back

It’s also why I’m still baffled that we’re getting more cases like this. You’d think after seeing what happens to those who do it, at some point they would realize: “Hey maybe I should stop doing this and try to be better before my social life is ruined completely.” BUT NOPE!!!!

The amount of folks I see using “fake Christian” when they mean “awful person who is part of my own religion but that is too uncomfortable to acknowledge”…

And yet they just say “Jew” or “Muslim” when talking about Jewish or Muslim folks who are also awful people 🤷🏻‍♀️

Gosh why could that be?

one thing I can say about Western media: once a creator gets caught with mountains of CSAM, they're almost always blackballed permanently

actually abusing children, that's more negotiable, of course (*cough Roman Polanski*), because we're still a collective garbage fire, but nonetheless

He had books upon books of it, and he specifically had a fixation on foreign children. Harassment and fraud are taken fairly seriously (Junya Ikeda, Toru Furuya), drugs are scorched earth, but if you're a JP creator into underage kids, that's a slap on the wrist. Just ask Watsuki or the Toriko guy.

Manga/Anime Industry really hates whenever Westerners make lazy stereotype jokes about tentacle porn and prefectural laws of consent, but it keeps not helping its public image at every turn whenever there should be just an open/shut case on, “No, you don’t get to work with us anymore.”

(as for my dad's side, I have two full cousins and even money is that both of them have children — I don't have any way of knowing, because they cut us off after my uncle's untreated mental health problems became intolerable — and gods only know what my paternal grandfather had happening)

(in any event, my sister had two kids, and one of them has a daughter, and there is a battalion of children on my mom's side of the extended family, so it's not like the extended clan is going to die out anytime soon)
