Disclaimer: I am not a fan or supporter of Eric July, but I'm genuinely curious to see what folks opinions are. I'll try to be fair to him for now:
Eric July is a Black Libertarian YouTuber (under the name "YoungRippa59") and BlazeTV contributor (founded by Glenn Beck) who created a comic series called Isom, and has plans for a series of titles under the moniker of "The Rippaverse". He also is a rap-metal/metalcore artist who is the front man of the group BackWordz and was formerly the frontman of Fire From the Gods. His YouTube content consists mostly of anti-woke reactions to current comic storylines from Marvel and DC Comics, as well as superhero/comic-based films from the MCU and the DCEU and political commentary.
He isn't any more notable than most YouTube conservative commentators, except that his crowdfunding campaign for Isom #1 exceeded $3.8 million in contributions, and his current campaign for Isom #2 Is at ~$1.4 million*. This, admittedly, is a remarkable success for a creator's first published comic(s).
Personally, I think dude is corny and a hardcore c00n in the mold of Sheriff David Clarke, Colion Noir, and Candace Owens. His comic is mid at best, and the dialogue is terrible (everyone--even the women--sound like Eric July, and no Black person speaks authentically).
He wouldn't warrant much of a discussion except for the boatload of cash he made from grifting his followers, appearing on Fox News and BlazeTV, and successfully marketing himself as the alternative to the "woke" trends of Marvel/DC.
Thoughts?
*-As reported by Eric July. He ran both crowdfunding campaigns on his own website rather than commonly used platforms like Kickstarter or Indiegogo, so there's no real way to check his numbers.
