Dead Beats: Kickstarter Campaign With Questionable Motives


I love the idea of indie comics. I love the idea of creating something you enjoy, and having passion behind it, and being able to be proud of your work.  With that being said, there are a lot of Kickstarter campaigns, and Indiegogo campaigns that I would actually not back – for obvious reasons, and mainly for the simple fact that I would not want these people to have my personal information.

This week, we saw a new Kickstarter campaign come out, and it’s one that includes a certain anti-Comicsgate internet troll who has one of the most toxic personalities I’ve seen on social media. 

In my video below I go through the campaign, and the article from Newsbeat, and address just exactly what is acceptable behavior in this current industry.
