Article about Scott Allie from 2015

Dark Horse Comics has allegedly harbored a boundary-crossing, biting problem for 20 years — a problem named Scott Allie. And at San Diego Comic-Con this year, Allie apparently managed to assault a comics creator who is not willing to remain silent.

Allie, who was the Editor-in-Chief of Dark Horse Comics until September 11th, assaulted two people at a party during the convention. We’ll get to the SDCC incident in a moment, but before that, we should discuss the fact that Allie’s behavior there is not a one-time thing. Certainly there are people who make mistakes while drunk and do not deserve to be penalized for a momentary—and singular—lapse in judgment. Allie, however, has allegedly made such a habit of this behavior that there have been jokes about it internally at Dark Horse for years, although no whisper of it traveled much further than that. He was particularly known for two things: out of control behavior while drunk and biting.

The biggest reasons why Allie’s behavior didn’t travel further are pretty complicated. In the comics industry, there’s a very us-against-them attitude amongst many of the publishers. When you’re part of the team, you are expected to put that team first – even to the point of ignoring bad behavior. If you stop ignoring that behavior and make the mistake of speaking up, well, you’re not part of the team anymore. You’re a problem. You might remain on staff, but you’ll be frozen out while the person you reported continues on their merry way, eventually making the environment completely unbearable for you and for others. This sends the message over and over again that people who are one of the gang, no matter how badly they behave, are valued above people who refuse to ignore harassment and assault.

"Gem, you don't want to do this."

"I don't," Gem said, hopelessly. Impulse placed a supportive hand on her shoulder.

"Then maybe you should be over here." Pearl made the simple sentence sound like a threat.

That was part of what had drawn Gem to her. She was sweet as anything, but she was also dangerous and unpredictable and refused to be restrained.

And she was fiercely loyal. Gem's eyes focused on Pearl's hands, resting on the sword in her belt. She hadn't drawn yet, but she was ready.

Gem knew it wouldn't work, but she tried anyway. "Maybe you should be over here."

"Well, this is a dilemna, isn't it?" How could she sound so cold? Did this not hurt her the way it hurt Gem?

"You could join the band, Pearl," Scott spoke up.

Pearl gave him a glare that dripped with history. "No. I'm Mounders for life."

Scott frowned, but didn't say anything. He took a breath and turned his attention to another one of the men across the battlefield. "Scar, remember who gave you a sword? Who was your best ally this time? I think you're standing on the wrong side here."

The dark-haired man fiddled with the blood-stained petals of a flower on the fringe of his poncho. He gripped his sword with his other hand, but looked uncertain. "I..."

Gem heard the sound of a crossbow being tensioned, and her hopes evaporated.

She got her shield up in time, the shower of sparks exploding across its wooden surface. The others weren't as lucky, the explosion grazing Impulse and engulfing most of Scott's wolves.

Gem looked across the battlefield over her shield. It wasn't Pearl that had pulled the trigger, but she didn't look surprised. Her face was set in grim determination as she pulled her sword free and dove down the hill. Joel was loading another rocket into his crossbow. BDubs gave the reins a crack and his horse dove into action.

Gem waved her Scotts to follow her, gave one last look at the woman that she loved, and set off at a run towards the cherry mountain.

Reclamation: Self-Made Boys

I just finished Self-Made Boys by Anna-Marie McLemore. I have thoughts...

Here there be spoilers!

The Self-Made Man is a homegrown American myth. Like all myths, it taps into collective values. Americans revere independence and success, particularly financial success. We are individualistic, refusing to believe we want or need anyone else to shape our lives. And we love an underdog, thrilling to watch a weak fighter dark-horse their way to the top!

But here’s the other thing about myths: they’re not real.

A closer look at every Self-Made Man lionized throughout American history reveals a shadow establishment behind them of exploitation. Privilege allows the Self-Made Man to bury the racism, sexism, and homophobia that permitted these straight white men to carve a path to the top and to keep themselves and their families there for decades (or even over a century).

Perhaps the most famous fictional example is James Gatz, better known as eponymous mystery man at the center of The Great Gatsby. F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel is narrated by Nick Carraway: a white man, a Yalie, a disenchanted spoiled brat who fancies himself morally superior to just about everyone around him (his own claims to the contrary notwithstanding). He--like everyone else--spends the novel obsessing over Gatsby and wondering how a man like that came to be even as Nick sneers at the very ticks that betray Gatsby as nouveau-riche. 

As the rich are busy eating each other, the savvy reader will be alert for discomforting aspects of Fitzgerald’s novel. On the margins are Gatsby’s associates, all of whom are deemed unsavory, and most are the  undesirables of this pristine, white world: people of color and, infamously, a man who is a walking talking jewish caricature.

Suffice it to say: it was time for an upgrade.

Rather than get ‘borne back ceaselessly into the past,’ Anna-Marie McLemore decided to remix Gatsby’s tale. This book is not necessarily one for modern sensibilities. Instead, it’s an effort to take the figures on the margins and bring them center-page where they belong.

In Anna-Marie McLemore’s Self-Made Boys, Nick Carraway becomes Nicolas Caraveo, a young Mexican-American man who longs to use his talent for math to make his family’s fortune. Nick sees this as his duty because he feels he owes a debt. He came out to his parents as a trans man, and they accepted him right away. Bearing in mind that trans teenagers can’t feel secure in that outcome in 2023 let alone in the 1920s, Nicolas regards this as no small miracle! Eager to show his gratitude, Nicolas follows his cousin, Daisy, out to New York. But Nicolas quickly realizes that Daisy has been shaping herself a new life. Now attempting to pass as white, Daisy denied Nicolas, telling everyone he’s the son of one of her old housekeepers. Nicolas, disgusted and afraid, finds himself pulling away from Daisy. He fears that he will once again find himself alone on the margins. Until the day that he meets his neighbor, Gatsby, another trans man who teaches Nicolas about himself and how to shape the future of his dreams.

I think it’s safe to say that anyone who’s ever read the original can’t help but detect the queer subtext in Nick’s infatuation with Gatsby. Here, the quiet part is said out loud and proud. Nicolas gets to consciously fall in love with Jay. The addition of them both being trans layers the image of ‘self-made’ with meaning.

First (and most obvious), there’s the obsession with money, how it drives society, who has and who can’t have, remain a powerful engine here as in the original. Once again, Gatsby is a man who came from middle-American poverty and dealt his way to fortune through blackmarket goods. It just so happens that his ‘unsavory’ associates are his allies: marginalized people who see each other as equals and pull each other up like community should.

Second, there’s the literal meaning. Both Nicolas and Jay were born into bodies that made the world see them as women. To become the boys they knew they were, they needed to do the work: change their appearances, change their names, and change their homes. Throughout the novel, Nicolas shares his thoughts about what it means to make himself into the man he knows he is--and how his relationship with gender influences his relationship with sexuality. “Most of the men like me I’d read about, the ones who had lovers at all, had lovers who were women…Were there any who loved other men? Did those kinds of self-made boys exist? If I loved another boy, did that make me less of one?”

Becoming a self-made boy, we come to realize, is more difficult than convincing other people. Internalized transphobia means fighting to convince yourself, especially when your sexuality and gender together don’t make the narrative simple.

Third, there’s a less literal meaning, one related to labels and identity. Because our boys aren’t the only ones working to claim themselves. Almost every character is either BIPOC, queer, or both. And they are navigating how to live authentically in a world that repudiates their existence. The jewish stereotype I mentioned in the original translates here into one of my favorite characters: Martha Wolf. An out, proud, jewish lesbian. She plays a large part in gentling Nicolas out of his internalized homophobia. “Every word they call people like us is an insult,” she reminds him. “That really tells you something. Even ‘gay,’ they say as an insult. Even 'lesbian.’ But I don’t much care how they use it. It’s our word.” For Martha, reclamation is about owning your identity. Because if other people can’t make you ashamed of yourself, then they lose a powerful hold over you.

I’m reluctant to point to too many specific examples because they lead to major spoilers of some of Self-Made Boys’s best surprises. But I will tell you about one of my favorites. Throughout this novel, Daisy obsesses about having a ‘coming out’ as a debutante because doing so would cement her place in the New York social scene. In a beautiful twist on the meaning, one of the best scenes in the novel involves Jay and Nicolas going to a hidden queer speakeasy where a spontaneous ‘coming out party’ is held for a woman who has recently embraced her sexuality. The moment is one of people openly celebrating queer joy, one where Nicolas feels like he belongs. It’s like Jay says: “Fairy…It’s a word they use for boys like us. They mean it to be an insult, but I take it to mean there’s something magic about us and they know it.”

Books considered Classic Literature are getting deserved flak for the way they treat marginalized people. McLemore’s spin on one of the most infamous shows us a new kind of Self-Made Man: a brave one whose very life depends on finding the courage to know himself and live as honestly as he can. Self-Made Boys is for all the queer youth out there, showing us that the life of our dreams isn’t simply the mirage of a green light burning on a distant dock. It’s out there for us to claim--courageous and worthy as we are.

Ok doing this with Evil Knight because this is my house and if I talk about my OCs unprompted if I want to

Only gonna do questions that I think apply to his particular character and story in general, so if u think some question not answered, then it's probably not relevant to the world with giant skeleton centipede roaming the land in search of the feast.

Anywho

1) he's pretty much living dead with a passion for the mission, but he wouldn't mind to suddenly lose all hope and collapse in one place for a month and act dead for a while. I mean, he's dead all the time, but acting dead is something he's not doing often.

2)

3) as living dead, he doesn't sleep, so closing his eyes and not moving probably counts as sleeping?

4) 5) there are no stakes in betraying anybody in this story, as majority of characters are either dead, divine in nature or otherwise in the position of not caring for any consequence of being betrayed, so everyone is pretty straightforward with each other

6) legal laws are non existent, laws of physics are stretchy for the plot, and laws of nature are something that is broken, twisted and defied by the premise as a whole. Evil Knight's mission is to bring laws of nature and life into order of how they were before dead started walking.

7) his whole mission is based on wanting back the world of the old you could say, but he doesn't exactly feel nostalgia for it. He rather feels disdain for the current shape of the world, and is angry at the fact that the dead won't stay dead. So in that regard, just having to face numerous undeads just like him is triggering more and more of that disdain, that people who were people before Everything, now are just pawns in hands of Big Bad.

8) —

9) he does. He doesn't.

10) his most prominent lie is "I'm fine". How fine a corpse that spits out purging liquid can be?

11) ask people around if they're perceiving the same thing as he or his brains finally rotted away

12) his body is always clad in armor and only his left hand has exposed skin, so he doesn't deal with itches. I'm not sure if he gets them anymore. I'm not sure if it's itchy when your skin is stuck in a constant state of decay.

13) —. (Insert Scott Pilgrim comic joke "this comic is in black and white)

14) worms

15) his speech and voice is gurgly, bubbly, gasping for air and failing to clear throat. He speaks what usually is on his mind, but has the wits to know that silence is also a valid option.

16) I'm not sure that in a world of walking corpses he still has something that disgusts him so much (or even has a stomach to be turned), but Trust and Believe, there is one thing that makes him puke his guts out quite literally.

17) 18) no, he isn't. If he's embarrassed, he'll admit it in a straightforward manner because it's easier to tell what's going on rather than pretend that he isn't. What embarrasses him is people being too soft. He understands that being loving and caring is what we should strive for, but in his current reality, being soft is not an option. Hard men make easy times, true love only possible in the next world, all that jazz yadda yadda. You can't kill god reanimator if you're not willing to be a bit cold and ruthless about it.

19) se7en.

20) he don't know these words. love is love, he's an ally and he just want grill for gods dammed sake

21) to continue walking to put a big pointy stick into someone's evil eye.

22) —

23) he's EVIL Knight. He's gonna threat ya.

24) huuh

25) thing of the past (not in "you don't need marriage to love each other", but in a "thing of civilization that is done for, we're in the dark age of history, the melting pot of culture and opinions, and bless us all whoever cares that we may survive the smelter")

26) on foot. Horses are dead. Sometimes there is magical teleporters, but you kinda need a wizard sidekick in your party to use them, and the only wizard available is direct cause of all this mess, although it isn't really responsible, but still it is more of an animal than a person and now he's vaporizing the ocean, great. Wow. Just wow. Who needs water anyways, am I ri-- Oh God what is that. What is it in the water. Why is it walking towards us. Oh god. No. No no no no no.

27) finding his own god where he didn't expect it to be found

28) no

29) nah.

30) Axewound Two. Just Axewound in past life. You not always appreciate someone telling you that you're born again undead who is currently in a burning corpse pit that was formed as a garbage pile in the caldera/crater of former sleeping volcano

31) the god of his enemy, because now he knows for sure that that thing is made of bone and blood, therefore it can be killed

32) "Two undeads don't walk into the tavern. One doesn't have the legs and the other doesn't have the arms to open the door."

33) nah

34) the only thing he's guilty of is not being able to discern between living and dead, although it's not much difference anyways these days, as one becomes another whenever the Voice feels like calling to them

35) he's intrigued to see someone still be excited for something in this world. You could say he's interested in observing people be interested.

36) —

37) he always remembers unless he needs to be a bit confused for a wee laugh of an audience (forgets the spell that undoes all evil)(fucks it up)(puts his hands to his forehead and sticks out his tongue cutely)

38) of waking up for the first time once again. he was looking up at the night sky, which was clear for just this moment. He caught a glimpse of numerous stars and planet outlines shine in the darkness of the night, until the second later it was overshadowed by smoke plumes from nearby corpse bonfires. Just for that one, very first moment in his new life, when he didn't know what he is or what he's awoken to, he felt peaceful.

39) he couldn't care less if it's something that he doesn't consider a flaw, but if it's something that he does, then it's a personal offense and he will keep a sideye just for you at all times.

40) couldn't care less. Flawed or not, his whole being is what got him thus far, and he's not gonna start rebuilding himself at the risk of losing that winning factor, whatever that may be.

41) he would be horrified to know that there are still children around after all of That. This said, while he doesn't knowingly encounter any, there are Implications.

42) any price is low enough to pay it. Until the Implications.

43) he has 5 meter cock and he's not afraid to use it. Jk. No sex. There is no sex in this story!! Maybe gender! And pronounces! In a way that you might say "oh god she just tore his fucking head off" and thatse it.
