Ironically , if he ( or some other comic artist ) was guilty of Manslaughter, and got out in 7 years he would have been accepted back into comic society.- depending who he/she had killed in self defense.. with open arms..
There have been other Artists and writers Cancelled , mostly due to who they vote for politically, or if they are old seasoned vets of the industry.or if they are " mean "
Professional comics creators should not lose their jobs for wearing the wrong political hat, religion , and be replaced by less younger, Untalented , overtly pushing " the message " and crap on the fans of said industry.

It really does come down to that old adage .... Judge the art not the artist.And if people can't then ignore the jerk and then don't buy his/ or her stuff. For me : If Stalin and Hitler worked on a comic series from 1938 till 1945 about Slavic and Northmen Vikings journing thru a medieval wasteland lasting 45 issues until the council of GODZ comes down from the machine to destroy them- I'd pick up a few copies and check it out.

Ed Piskor was not Frank Miller or Jim LEE.- just a comics lover, Comics historian, artist, writer who had to work hard to ACTUALLY make a living in the here and now-- the near bottom of the barrel of industry right now - but he did it.

And now he;s dead. Cancelled


Guys better then Piskor like Robert Crumb are many of these vapid labels and he still is alive and well.
Until he wasn't aloud to do it any longer. So now he's gone - and the cancel pigs who helped corner him using social media and internet " helped " make it happen]]>

Was there any evidence against him that he did something wrong? Or is this 100% confirmed to be a false accusation?

Keep in mind I have no dog in this. I'm just asking from the perspective of someone who knew nothing about this man or this case until it was brought up here.]]>

While certain works of literature would have us believe that there are seven sins, there is actually only one sin.

Selfishness. Every other sin is actually just a form of selfishness.

It is because of one or more of the many forms of selfishness that have become more endemic in recent years that toxicity is allowed to thrive.]]>

Come to find out many of the millennials / " talent " in comics constantly try and tear each other and other older comic veterans down.

How did comics industry become so Toxic the last 12 years?]]>
