    Default Alt-Hero

    I haven't seen much reporting on this anywhere. Looks like there's a pretty highly backed crowdfund for a book that's out there as a response to Marvel's overpoliticizations lately. Anyone checked it out?

    Politics aside, this looks terrible.

    Politics considered, this looks terrible.

    And some of those comments... it baffles me that people like that can be fans of superheroes.

    "Intended to challenge and replace Marvel and DC" ... lol

    Over 1,100 backers and 103,000 dollars raised - with still another 18 days to go.

    I'm really concerned that Dixon is throwing in with someone who at least pretends to be a white nationalist. I've really appreciated Dixon's work for conservative creators and fans, but this looks like it will set his voice back a lot. He says that he doesn't think this project will be white nationalist, but I have no faith in Vox Day.
