Response to Chad Larsson's Interview with Ethan Van Sciver Pt 1: Did Eric July Attack Crowdfunding?

This is the first video response to Chad Larsson’s recent interview with comic book artist and commentator Ethan Van Sciver. The conversation covered a wide range of topics in the independent comics scene, but one point in particular stood out: the claim that Eric July may have "attacked" crowdfunding.

I break down what was actually said, provide context around Eric July’s stance on crowdfunding versus direct sales, and explore whether the criticisms raised were fair or mischaracterized. Was this a genuine disagreement, a misunderstanding, or something deeper within the indie comics movement?

Join me as I analyze the interview, fact-check key moments, and offer my take on what this means for creators and supporters of independent comics.
