I suspect PAD's gonna be getting this reaction a lot

I hope nobody minds horribly if I repost this, since it didn't get backed up before we lost the LJ comm...

Also, I don't suppose anyone has scans of the new Spider-Girl yet? If they went up yesterday, I didn't get to see them.

So true.

LilFormers knows fandom. *goes to read ever comic ever*

Haha. I think I'd be the same in real life as on the net, though.

I dunno. I mean, if I met a creator I complained about really vocally here, I probably wouldn't do so in person. That's to be expected (even aside from my general shyness). But I also wouldn't go up to them and be fawning and ask for their autograph, either. If I don't like them, it's cause _I don't like them_, and thus I don't want their autograph (I'm one of those who only want autographs out of admiration, but even if I had financial motives, I'd just request one fairly neutrally, without fawning).

Yeah, I agree. If I hate a writer, I won't blast him to his face but that doesn't necessarily mean I'd suck up to them either.

[filbypott.insanejournal.com]

Yeah, I'd just quietly avoid him/her.

Motto.

Seriously. If I hated a person's work enough to rail about it on the internet, why would I waste precious con-time that could be spent fangirling the creators I like standing in line for their autograph?

I did exactly this at NY Comicon with Dan Didio. I feel I should be ashamed, but I really don't.

[lightbrigade.insanejournal.com]

Mmmhmm. Didio's a charismatic dude in person. You almost feel like a bad person for blasting his decisions. Almost.

I guess the difference between me and this guy is I don't *have* to buy it. If I don't like it, I just don't buy it. :P

[tragical_mirth.insanejournal.com]

I also kind of don't go after autographs either unless it's a writer I really, reeeeeeeeeally love and respect (and that's usually not anyone whose autograph would be worth anything to anyone but me, to be honest).

I dunno if any of you read Stuff Geeks Love (http://stuffgeekslove.blogspot.com), but it has at least one relevant entry.

Somehow I don't think this is what Willis actually does. For some reason.

No, but it was the only response Matt had to David's diss the week before.
