Thanks for that statement. I just enjoyed reading Dreamless, heard that this guy had authored other comics that seemed very different, googled his name, and here I got. I too was very disappointed in such a petty tone–but, hey, we all make mistakes online, if we have an internet addiction. ^_^ I hope Bobby is feeling much more secure in his reputation and his work–it really speaks for itself, regardless of what’s written in reviews.

As weird as it sounds, I’m going to stick up for Bobby here.

Around the time this review was written, Bobby Crosby was going to every site, acting in like manner any time his name was mentioned. There was an article at ComixTalk, for example, that didn’t really criticize him but rather got one of the facts wrong. (In fact, the article was fairly positive toward Mr. Crosby.) A similar tirade followed. Since then, however, I have to say that Bobby’s mellowed down somewhat.

I believe that Bobby’s attitude is much changed from the one who wrote the above comments. If I’m wrong, though, the man is free to come to this site to correct me.

Personally, I don’t know how to feel. I’ve been a big supporter of Marry Me and Last Blood – while I thought that yes, they both had their Mary Sues, Marry Me was lighthearted and ridiculous, in an entertaining way, and Last Blood didn’t have the best plot, but deeper characters than I expected.

Reading these reviews isn’t what upset me. I found they were honest assessments on the comics, maybe a bit overrexagerated. That’s just my opinion; I am not a reviewer, I’m a teenage girl.

What upsets me is how little respect Bobby Crosby has for either comic. I enjoyed the comics and to see that the author for either claims to ‘hate’ them even hurts *my* pride in them.

Inspired to be an artist myself, I found it was key to be level headed and love what you do and what you write, despite what everyone else says. Unfortunately, my faith is belittled by reading this, and Bobby has lost a fan in result.

I don’t need to have produced a comic to offer my viewpoint, Anil. If I produced a comic I would at least respect it, not think of it as merely a means to an end.

Bobby Crosby has the worst attitude of any amateur comic writer ever, he doesn’t respect his fan base and he sure as hell doesn’t respect his own work – using a comic just as a podium to filming what’ll inevitably be a low-budget B movie is cynical. I’m thoroughly disgusted at him.

I’ve read entire Last blood 3 times… and was waiting for the next one to start.
The concept is novel and I’m a DIE hard comic fan. Bobby did a great job,And one should see him do MS paint LOL he is good at MS paint sketches. So even if he wants to make a movie,i’m sure people will dig, BTw I never felt any plate was ever flat,Every page was a surprise and the script was tight.Those who have read it as it was written i think the wait was painful for each page. And if people are looking for logic reasoning in a story full of Vampires and Zombies, They are looking in the opposite (as in wrong)direction (I’m a very positive person and Defer to use negative remarks, ) .Its comics dude…Its a fantasy/horror/thrller.
