The circles in which I move have been abuzz recently about this guy.
You can read more about this low-life here.
If you follow the whole set of events that have kicked off this week, it’s pretty epic… and an indication of what folks can do when they band together against a common foe.
Part of the reason this annoys me, beyond the obvious, is that I was recently contacted by a youngster who, having read Luci Phurr’s Imps and this comic strip, felt inspired to create his own webcomic. He’s a kid who is 11 years old and he’s making a genuine effort do something creative and original, while someone like this Granito (alleged) parasite can only dream of the creative integrity needed to do his OWN work and put it out there. Check it out and leave him a nice comment. Because for as much as the bottom feeders need to be shown the door, the kids coming up are where it’s gonna be in the future.
Keep up the good work, Owen.
page!
Ok… so this “#$%&head” is faking his work and getting away with it and no one does a thing to stop him?! He’s needing a big imp-attack, oh yes he is.
And I find myself agreeing with your logic. Though I think that if he tried to pass Luci Phurr’s Imps as his own webcomic, it would never be as great and successful as it is, ’cause you and the rest of the team are a big part of the reason why the Imps are so well-loved.
It would simply never be the same without you!
P.S. By the way, that Rob Granito needs some english lessons, apparently. I mean, I’m not a native english speaker, and even I can write better than that!
Would you feel better if I ripped you off? I would totally do that for you if you wanted. ;D
…Welp…time to get the Exploding Attack Hamster launcher…and the radioactive lemming flail…
Perhaps he is sock-puppeting as the man who says that he is legit.
@Aletheya – You are right about his English skills… or lack thereof. Probably why he decided to be an awesome artist instead of a writer.
@LL – Probably not. I appreciate the offer though.
@Sic – From what I have read, the EAH might be the least of his worries.
@Encoyroaba – Legit… or legit-o-mite? That would be a clue.
…Hey, it’s all I’ve got! The Ravenous Vampiric Zombeh Kitties are on vacation…
Dale I think the onlyreason that D-bag of a person hasnt rippedyou off yet is cause he know he would feel the wrath of heaven and hell as the two forces would unite if only briefly would ultimately destory the knowen universe
