Terrific Productions And Youngblood 0

Has anybody else been following this train wreck? I can't look away. It's obvious this guy is delusional and hasn't looked at the industry since the early 90's, and is just clueless as to how things work these days. And the Twitter account, dear lord!

I had a look at some of the Google links, in particular Twitter, and the writing is incredibly hyperbolic.

Promising way too much and most likely setting themselves up for a quick fall. 

Being a cautious Brit, I'm never impressed with this kind of hubristic attitude.

I've seen countless 'independent' startup type companies back when I wanted to draw comics.  Not a single one ever got off the ground.  Almost always they 'paid' artists in 'back end' pay-meaning when they started making money, which never happened.  Always started by some 'writer' who had a 'lifelong dream' and 'passion up the yin yang'.  They wanted artists to draw for free, to fuel their 'passion'.

To be fair, Kav, they did offer to make Ryan Stegman a star. They could do wonders for his career, as he's only Marvel's biggest talent at the moment. Small potatoes!

I'm waiting for them to start publishing Youngblood Masterpieces.

Yup.  He is rather good already.

I wonder if they could do anything for Brie Larsen.

She's already famous.

Terrific Productions will look up and shout "We're the next Image partner!"... and Erik Larsen will look down and whisper "No."
