    I kinda agree, but on the other hand, The Oatmeal is one of the funniest and most prolific web comics out there, so it’s one of those rare instances where I don’t mind.

      They’re (Netflix) probably trying to replicate the success of Strange Planet on Apple TV.

      Except the creator is a major douche who took advantage of his sleazy SEO skills to make it prolific.

            Ok, that’s literally a bad website, and they criticize him for bad art. I’m no graphic designer, but they should higher one. And the “source” is just another sourceless statement.

              That’s not the only site talking about him, but it was convenient to find and touched on everything.

                Hilarious.

                “This site is trash and makes tons of unsourced claims.”

                “Well, this is only ONE of the MYRIAD sites I COULD have given you. It was somehow more “convenient” for me to give you this one than any of the other reputable sites to which I’m referring.”

        So, dude makes art on the internet and wanted to use his output to create a revenue stream for himself? Shocking, how dare he. Randall Munroe got popular doing xkcd, and now he’s written books just to further make a name for himself. A damning indictment.
