My husband spotted that Andrew Dobson is trending on /co/ rn and they're having a field day. It's pretty funny and we wanted to share
That is pretty funny. I guess /co/ misses having Dobson around to dunk on just as much as everyone else.
What’s /co/? I see someone reposted my remake.
It’s a board on 4chan where they talk about comics and cartoons. Dobson was talked about there a ton back in the early days and will routinely pop up now and then as a topic there.
Yeah probably shouldn’t have gone on 4chan. They were flaming my remake XD;
4chan is kinda just like that, yeah. Don’t take it too much to heart, part of the reason people post on there is to active be as big an asshole as possible for the fun of it.
I did see some people hate on the comic, but I also saw people say good things and offer some criticism/critique. Best advice I can offer is ignore the ones that were purposely being dicks, enjoy the compliments, and check out the criticism and see if any of it is actually good advice.
But yeah, probably don’t go on there lol. 4chan is kinda what Twitter/tumblr thinks Kiwi Farms is at its worse.

Thanks for your support on the idea. I don’t suppose you have the korrasami audio? I couldn’t save Dobson’s animation and I can’t find the audio on YouTube.
Took me a bit of searching through old links and such, since the tumblr post that Dobson originally got the audio from in 2015 has since been needed, but I did find the original SoundCloud hosting of the audio.
Nothing about Dobson, but this dedication, analyzing, and funny commentary need to be followed
I’m not nearly as active as I was back when Dobson was still around, and your mileage may vary on how funny I come across, but thank you. I’m glad people still enjoy checking this blog out now and then.
I want to reanimate that korrasami wedding proposal but, would that count as “copyright infringement” if I remake Dobson’s attempt (but, better?)
It’s a fan animation to begin with, so I’m sure you’d be fine. He can’t copyright you on something that’s already a copyright.
And given what you did with that one Alex ze Pirate comic, I’d absolutely love to see what you do with the animation.

Do you have an archive of that Korrasami proposal animation? The vid you linked in the post talking about his animation has since been taken down...
I’m still digging to see if I can find one, but in the meantime, here’s a slowed down clip of part of it so you can see each particular frame.
Someone on Kiwi Farms found a backup of the full thing, along with a few other of his animations.

Why is that twitter post acting like dobson disappeared decades ago?
Internet drama comes and goes so fast that people will actively lie about a thing that happened a couple months ago as if no one was paying attention and still convince people. In current Internet drama terms, Dobson may as well be a century old.
Still really dumb of them to go “actually, Dobson wasn’t a terrible person” no matter how long it’s been.
To be honest, I think it was more about acting currently as if Dobson is still a relevant shit. Which he isn't, as he has been off he grid for five years. So I think acting like he is still an active moron is actually a bit performative and that is coming from me)
That said, I still think it is legit to point out the flaws in his work and the hypocrisy that was actively going on with him and how in hindsight a lot of it may just have been hilariously wrong and only added in him sabotaging his own live and happiness
Fair point. I suppose I just looked at a lot of the criticism and hate Dobson got was in response to his attitude, not his art. As in, people only nitpicked his art and whatnot because he acted as such an egotistical asshole. But that can obviously just be my own bias in the matter.

The Gamer From Mars just released a video about Movie Bob. I think he's objective, as he tries to be, and you could tell in some parts, he had to force himself not to laugh. However he was also honest in admitting he likes Movie Bob and looks forward to seeing what he does next. Make of that what you will. I just thought I'd point this out since Chipman has been mentioned here before for reasons we all know. Check his video out!
TGFM also made videos about Tim Buckley and Scott Adams (...and of course, Chris-chan...). I'm hoping he'll actually cover Dobson some day, too. It feels more likely now than ever, but we'll see.
I watched EFAP cover that video. I was supremely confused about how the guy said Bob was “harmless” at the end given all the unhinged stuff Bob says and has said, but I realized him mentioning harmless as in “he has absolutely no real power or ability to actually do any of the stuff he screams and rants about.
Dobson videos tend to be fairly few and far between, but most of them end up being interesting when they do. I’ll definitely check it out if TGFM ever covers Dobson.
This is the state of things we’ve reached, huh?
What’s funny is that there’s a number of people calling this bad take out in the replies and quote-tweets, but I just wanted to share.
I wanna thank you for supporting my idea of redrawing Dobson’s comic.
I tried to make the characters looking less-punchable.
Amazing work, I like how you used different perspectives for some of the panels and the lighting. Sam’s expression in the last panel is just perfect.
The changes to the script are, of course, a massive improvement to the original.
Let me know if you do any more Dobson -related stuff.
I think this one is really gonna blow up, guys : )
Ok now to go bleach my eyes
I don’t understand what’s going on here, but I do find it hilarious.
Didn’t family guy make this joke over bojack horseman?
Anonymous asked:
I think the "andrew dobson without strawman" can be extented to many other cartoonist like sophie labelle
Given a lot of Dobson/LaBelle-style comics tend to be the artist’s self-insert lecturing the strawman, I can definitely see it working well. Hell, some of their comics are already “without strawman” style, because it’s literally just the character lecturing the audience.

(idk if i sent this already but sending it again cuz tumblr stinks)
as much as i dont like dobson, i can find some of his struggles relatable, and it hurts. especially in his piece "all of my friends are imaginary" really resonated with me, having gone thru similar experiences and whatnot. and yet, i cant find sympathy because he's just so damn... miserable.
I think people can find it relatable when taken as a single image, outside of the full context. But once you know the full context of the person that drew it, it can be really hard to feel any sympathy for the guy.
But the phrase separate the art from the artist” does exist for a reason.
For some reason, “maidofhonor” is hitting something familiar in my brain, although I’m not sure why. Maybe it was the username of an old Dobson troll or something. Or it could have been one of Dobson’s old Twitter names, maybe that’s it.
Also I find it hilarious that even on bluesky of all places, people are still making fun of Dobson.
Hey there, so, I would love to redraw one of Dobson’s Alex Ze Pirate comics for fun and to see it in my style.
I’m having trouble which ones to pick.
Here’s an example of my own recent webcomic.
First of all, major props to your quality of work. I really like how you do backgrounds.
As for what comic to redraw, I feel like a lot of them would be wasted on your talent since most of them are just blank walls while the characters tell some kind of joke, Lesbian Kick creeping on Alex, Sam getting shot on, ect. But I do think I know of one image that could work. It was the first of what was supposed to be monthly wallpapers on his Patreon, but I think we all know how that went.
Given your talent with backgrounds, this would be my recommendation. If you do want to do a comic itself though, his most well known ones are the Lesbian Kick comic, and the one where all the girls annoying brag about how great they supposedly are.
hypocrisyofandrewdobson Follow Anonymous asked:I know we can only theorize at this point, but given Dobson's personality i find it legitimitely shocking that he has been able to keep quiet on the internet all these years, and without posting art at all. it's just so unlike him! i actually considered the possibility that he might have died because this silence makes no sense to me; but like you said in another post, the internet would've found that info already if that were the case... so the only thing that makes sense to me is that he actually has a steady job somewhere as an artist, and that's why he doesn't find the need to post online anymore. basically what i'm asking is, what do you think has managed to keep dobson away from the spotlight all these years?I could actually see him not posting art pretty easily, tbh. He’d actively grown to hate doing art or even trying to improve for a very long time. Hell, the only thing that actually got him drawing again after over a year and a half was Trump’s first election when, and that was entirely motivated by spite. I believe Dobson is actively still online and posting on social media, just under some kind of alt. And the thing is, if you take away Dobson’s art, all his political ranting and hating on anything he doesn’t agree with really just kinda blends in with a lot of other people’s social media post. What’s impressive to me is that he’s managed to keep his ego in check enough to remain anonymous online. It would be really nice if your scenario is what actually happened though. #andrew dobson#tom preston#social media#adobsonartworks#adobsonart#ask#anonymous

hypocrisyofandrewdobson Follow vicholocow asked:what is Lady in the Water, and why would Dobson like it?Lady In the Water is a 2006 movie by M. Night Shyamalan in which an apartment owner discovers a water nymph(called a Narf in the film-yes, really) who needs to be protected from a wolf monster made of grass(called a Scrunt in the film-yes, really) so that she can inspire a writer. Shyamalan claimed it’s a fairy tale he made up for his kids. What the film is ACTUALLY about is how M. Night Shyamalan, who plays the writer character in the movie, is so super talented and amazing at writing that his book will inspire a child to be President who leads the world into a golden age, but is so amazing that he(the writer) will be assassinated for his writing and ideas. It also features a character that is literally a strawman of all of Shamalamadingdong’s detractors and critics, called The Critic., who only exist to be shown how lame and stupid he is before being killed by the aforementioned grass wolf demon. It’s one of the most self-indulgent, self-fellating nonsense movies you can imagine, so you can imagine why a movie about a super amazing “artist” looked down on by the evil smarmy critic would appeal to Dobson. #andrew dobson#tom preston#lady in the water#m night shyamalan#adobsonartworks#adobsonart#ask#vicholocow

hypocrisyofandrewdobson Follow Anonymous asked:Following on anon's comment about Dobson and calling OoT Link effemenate, this accusation always confused me. Maybe it's cause my country had anime since the 70s unlike mainstream US but to me OoT Link doesn't look effemenate, in the art for the Jump Attack, he has very, very defined pecks, legs and arm muscles. You'd think Dobson, being a supposed artist, would have the eye to right away notice those details, OoT Link is ripped. Part of being an artist is to see things broadly. Was it only the ear rings?
Now, BotW Link, sure, even the game supports it, effemenate, thin guy.It’s a number of things, but I think the two main contributing factors was OoT Link being blonde, something Dobson has an intense hatred for, and because Dobson’s ideal version of Link seems to be the version from the 80’s DiC cartoon. The “well, ecuuuuuuuuse me, princess!”He may also view OoT Link as “animesque”, and he also has an intense hatred of anime. #legend of zelda#oot link#blonde#anime#andrew dobson#tom preston#adobsonartworks#adobsonart#ask#anonymous
