I write comics and video games. Comics: Sonic the Hedgehog (IDW), ENDLESS FANTASIA, The Black Mage // Video Games: Guild Wars 2 and 3 // He/Him // Opinions are my own.

This kind of shit is doing irreparable damage to working artists and creating a huge paywall for up and coming artists. This is not sustainable and is going to prevent lots of careers from starting before they get a chance to. An embarrassment.

I really am not surprised if D&Q would turn the other way wrt stealing other people's works (LRT) since they did it to me for Constitution Illustrated. "Fair use" was their excuse for tracing wholesale.
