But then with a difficulty rating equal to half your targets toughness is anyone surprised Kurtz was susceptible? Long story short, some world renowned web comic historian dude with millions upon millions of readers is writing a book about webcomix and now Kurtz is getting all up in his grill about it (would it kill him to make his blog posts linkable?). I've never heard of him but his name is T Campbell and he comes across as kind of a douche the way he's running his shit. But this isn't the first time Kurtz has lost it over some bag of wank webcomics blah blah blahing. Campbell also managed to piss off Rodney Caston (formerly of Megatokyo - when it was funny) by leaving him out of the loop altogether. No interview, no recognition for his part in Megatokyo and no chance to counter Piro's spurious claims about their webcomic celebrity break up.
OMFG teh Dramaz!
The part that amused me most and actually prompted this post is that both Kurtz and Caston used the phrase "has my blood boiling". T Campbell is so totally a wyrd it's not funny.
Edit: I just read Piro's comments on the topic and they seem to be sympathetic to Largo's side of the story but I can't help feeling that he comes across more as patronising than anything else.
