They seem simple and earnist
>>152512152Dobson was obese bald and autistic.If Dobson was an attractive Chad literally nobody would give a shit or bother trying to troll/critisize him.
>>152512213Nah he was just popular So popular thing = bad
>>152512152You dumb or something? Those words don't mean what you think they mean. Even in your example it's>not funny>needlessly mean spirited>excessive arroganceThere's nothing earnest about it, especially in light of the fact that this is as low effort as it gets even for Dobbles - he was always capable of much better but cut corners at every chance. Simple? Yeah, simply bad.
>>152512152The problem with dobson was his personality (go figure). I definitely think his comics are like garfields , where they are inoffensive but fine to give a chuckle.
>>152512228When was he popular?
>>152512152Stop playing dumb and go back to kiwifarms if you want to pine over him for not producing 24/7 lolcow drama for you.
>>1525127152010-2014He worked for brentalfloss
>>152512152He's not very good and he's unduly smug about his work.
>>152512152Would this comic be better with only three panels?
>>152512152YOU'RE SURE 'BOUT THAT?!?
>>152513378The joke needs four panels. It would be better if it didn't exist.
>>152512152he blew up thanks to a Garfield tier comic page. What do people find so interesting about dobson making a reference to one of the vile food brands of America?
>>152513485This is one of his better comics. There is a joke and even though it clearly depicts himself there's no boasting or whining like so many of his other works.
Guy could've done better if he had a pinch of humility and didn't dismiss criticism as personal attacks. Then again smug faggots like him are a dime a dozen nowadays so what do I know.
>>152513584>dismiss criticism as personal attacks>smug faggots like him are a dime a dozen nowadaysthey always been the bulk. isn't the stereotype that the average devaintart user will chimp-out if you say something bad about their art?
>>152513485>microwaved potato sprayed with fake butterI've had some sad meals but never this sad
>>152513656don't tell me it got popular because many amerimutts eat like this and could relate.
>still making these threads about a guy who hasn't been on the internet in over 10 yearsdo you really have so little to talk about?
>>152512152>>152513751Is he even alive?
>>152513808Yeah he makes cartoons nowhttps://youtu.be/03DhmCDVFi8
>>152513751Dobson still makes cartoons what are you on abouthttps://youtu.be/WgD2Qk1Bs8U
>>152513751Best to say he hasn't been relevant in 10 years
>>152513824I don't see anything there about dobson
>>152514007Yeah its his new account keep up
>>152514048Kiwifarms stalked him and managed to find his new accountNot a case of mistaken identity either
>>152512152Holy fuck, man. Get some standards.If the rest of you faggots have any brain cells left, don't bump the thread anymore.
>>152512152>Dobson dox: everybody laughed>Stonetoss dox: right wing faggots screamed, reported and pissed their pantsWhy?
>>152513859Yet anon is obssessed with him after 10 years. Why?
>>152513131Nah that was the period of his decline. 2003-09 was when Dobby was the king of DA
>>152514647Because no one has ever laughed at anything made by Stonetoss.
>>152514647>>152515647Now this is some grade A redditor seethe
>>152513848These are pretty neat actually, good for him.
all of the day bro
>>152513728it's funny and sad, that's about it
>>152514668intense autism
>>152514647stupid piece of shit plebbitor seething
>>152512228>he was just popularHe was a popular lolcow troll target, he was never "popular".
>>152512152They weren’t, even if his opinions were garbage, but Dobson would have a huge freak out whenever people mocked him. That’s why he had a reputation as a lolcow. If he took the criticism and mockery on the chin, people would have gotten bored and stopped.
>>152514647>Stonetoss dox: right wing faggots screamed, reported and pissed their pantsGot screenshots? Would be entertaining, I literally didn't care that he got doxxed.
>>152515794This one aged weird.
>>152516018not much actually happened except a few redditors mocking the fact he looks more latino than white
>>152514647Right wingers have vitctim complex. What else is new?
>>152515794top comic is correct though there was a period where every other AAA game was a fps with a shit brown filter and a generic bearded man as the protagbottom comic is up to taste but wii did have a lot more variety (and shovelware) than its competition
>>152515942Why is it always the victim getting blamed though? Dobson wouldn't have crashed out so much if people hadn't been so relentlessly mean to him. It's normal to become insecure when so many people are so consistently mean to you. I'm sure a lot of well-liked artists would end up like Dobson if the Internet started targeting them like they targeted Dobson. A lot of us have been victims of bullying and know what it's like. Perpetuating this kind of violence makes no sense.
>>152516099Dobson was mean himself. His most hated comics are about how smart and superior he is.
>>152516099Your mistake is assuming Andrew Dobson is a victim when a good chunk of his comics were intentionally baiting for people to respond to him angrily, even if he claimed to be the victim otherwise.
>>152516099Dobson deserved some of the heat. Mainly twisting the truth about other people, being a feminist with ulterior motive, being an massive hypocrite(bitched about sexualization of women, when he does it himself) and tracing stuff but larp as some god-tier artist(his art was basically boring Garfield tier stuff).People ,however, seems to have target him mostly for petty stuff like>he hates what I like and like what I hate>he told me to shove it up my ass when I criticized his art>he's into inflation and lesbians!The argue with critics part gets me the most. In my experience the typical response to someone disagreeing with your criticism is "you do you then" or "fine figure it out on your own". But apparently there are people so petty they start beefing with you because you had the audacity to not accept their critique as gospel and even dares to talk back. Someone rejecting your criticism is literally a nothingburger.
>>152513485Honestly first time I've seen this particular comic strip and I think it's one of his finest works
>>152516154>>152516191Back when Dobson gained popularity before 2010, being a snarky smartass was so common for popular artists it was almost a prerequisite for success. I remember when I used to browse Sheezyart, Dobson was already getting trolled constantly while this other artist, rtil, was a huge asshole to anyone he deemed untalented, and people were kissing his ass for it. I don't think there is a rational or morally cohesive explanation to this. I think it's mostly groupthink.>>152516248I agree that the Power Girl thing was very hypocritical and heinous, but that stuff happened many years after he became a regular lolcow. But I think there's a line between dismissing your critics and insulting them and he didn't care about that line at all.
>>152516248Honestly, I just hate him because the man is a weenie who tries to make himself look like the victim in every circumstance, no matter how incredulous the situation is. Like, I don't fucking care if he hates D&D or loves Other M, he can love whatever he wants. But if he's going to piss people off, just stand by it instead of whining about getting a backlash from it. Like, his depiction of D&D nerds as the most scary and intimidating motherfuckers on the planet is super telling, and funny for the wrong damn reasons, but even he couldn't be naive enough to think that trying to depict D&D nerds as mean bullies isn't going to earn him mockery or scorn from people who know those people are some of the wimpiest fucks in existence.That and the time he admitted he freaked out on his jewish girlfriend who saw he was pissed he was going to miss Christmas and invited him over to her parents for Hanukah, only for him to have an autistic meltdown and go "THEY'RE NOT THE SAME, FUCK YOU!" Like, seriously, dude, what the hell.
>>152516315>being a snarky smartass was so commonThere's your answer, anon. To properly pull off being a snarky smartass, you need charisma and the chops to pull it off. Or at least be able to balance out your constant whinging with genuine moments to make people believe you aren't really a blubbering baby who hides his opinions behind acerbic jokes and a fake aloofness. Otherwise, you just sound like a complaining jackass who is never satisfied. And Dobson always landed on the more acidic side of the equation when it comes to making fun of stuff. It's all fun and games until some dumbass on the internet unironically calls you a sexist for being into japanime shit while being a fat fuck weeaboo themselves, and then doesn't even have the talent to make that insult funny.
>>152516315>line between dismissing your critics and insulting themThere is a fine line between giving constructive criticism and trying to make the artist cater to your preferences. A line many of them don't seem to care about.The critics themselves can also be extremely rude but still think they are entitled to politeness. If you return this rudeness in kind, they will act like you are the asshole, because they took time out of their day to critique you and you should show gratitude according to them. Big whoop, they can go and critique someone who cares about what they have to say then if they don't like it. I don't blame Dobson for being rude to critics who behave like this. I blame him for lumping good critics who were trying to help him improve with assholes who demand you cater to their taste.He would also discredit critique not based on what it said, but rather who said it. You weren't popular or posted much art? Opinion Discarded. Like you need to a be a major gamedev to tell if a game is ridden with bugs or not.
>>152516749I recall one time he tried to dismiss someone's criticisms, only to try and immediately backtrack once he found out they were a popular DA artist and got laid the fuck out. Cause they weren't even that harsh on him in their initial criticisms, but they got super pissed that he tried the "YOU do better then" argument on them.
Why are you people still talking about a guy who disappareared like 10 years ago
>>152516792Hes still online stop gaslighting
>>152514329Its him
>>152515905No he was popular beforehand. Remember? He used to be at the top of reddit, imgur and deviant art. The man was making a living off of internet art back in the early 2000s
>>152516771You mean this guy?
>>152516903He was below e-celeb, but he did have a legitimate career working for Brentalfloss. Even if I could joke about Andrew Dobson's flaws or failings, the man definitely had ambitions and I feel could have made far more of his life had he not settled for just being a webcomic artist once his contract with Brentalfloss ended. He's at least gone back to drawing and animation, at least at his own pace.>>152516930That's the one, thanks.
>>152516941I actually did try contacting him for animation commissions since I thought it would be a fun little piece of internet history but he said he's not taking any now. Maybe one day I'll get something
>>152517036Dobson rarely took proper commissions anyways even when he was more active, since he usually put his personal projects above work other people paid for, but I do hope you get yours commissioned and delivered some day anon.
>>152517066Yeah I juet wanted something stupid like Luigi jumping
>>152513751https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKRqJ5461C4
>>152517066Or maybe samus idk
>>1525172474chan tried commissioning him to draw Samus one time, so he probably wouldn't take it.
>>152517307Worst part is I like prime 4 so id actually want something there
>>152515781He’s also not going around picking out negative comments and making a jackass of himself anymore. Looks like he finally figured out how to not be a lolcow.
>>152517389For now
>>152516792The last time you asked my answer was "because it's funny"This time the answer is still "it's funny" The next time you ask the answer will still be "because it's funny"
>>152517990Its super funny
>>152512152They started fine but he went crazy from mild criticism and started going "i have drawn you as the incel and me as the chad, therefore i win"
hindsight is 2020. and of course the internet has only become more retarded at large as time goes on.
>>152517990it hasn't been funny for years. you're insanely fixated on this guy
