Ethan Van Sciver stops collaboration with Dave Sim

Van Sciver wrote several days ago, following allegations Cerebus creator Sim had groomed an underaged girl for sex before having relations with her at age 21, that:



I think it's a sage decision, since Sim has been a very fishy character for decades already. What's been brought up now might be hearsay at this point, but even so, Sim's visions are still pretty tasteless. There's also a video discussing the case here, which shows a screenshot of a comment Sim made on a blog dedicated to his past work on Cerebus:

All that said, I did notice a handful of anti-Comicsgate tweeters talking about this who didn't sound like they were being altruistic when they brought it up, and likely wouldn't have if Sim hadn't been offered a job by a conservative.

Also, look who promoted Sim's Cerebus a short time ago:


So despite the morally questionable acts of Sim, the BC website is still promoting his wares? Well, can't say I'm surprised. Nor is it shocking if the really atrocious offenders continue to be ignored by the SJW/NPC crowd in the forseeable future.

It's amazing how morality disappears when large amounts of money are offered huh?

the bleeding cool website on Dave Sim:

"the creator took what some may call greater and greater divergences from mainstream perspectives and what others would call going batshit crazy."

They are not exactly whitewashing him.
