Kurtz, you BASTARD. This is the kind of brilliant trolling you used to do. I really went for it. "Fake Scott McCloud" is the same fake name format you used in your parodies of Sinfest and Angst Technology years ago (when I find them I'll link them). Well played.
wow. fuck you scott kurtz for wasting so much of my time on this site. i guess this is a great joke you played on everyone who wished PVP was a better strip.
i thought we were having real conversations in here but kurtz was laughing it up the whole time.
Well, even if FSM really is the real SK, he's still playing along that he's not, so we can continue our discussions about PvP. So it's best everyone just forgets this ever happened.
Ha i guess the fanbois started a moment and most of the movements the author is famous for, it stinks!
I wish the movie was being optioned, I could see myself being played by Casey Affleck, a lovable troublemaker that is misunderstood, but with a heart of gold.
Yes, we are all anonymous, but it's only the ones who can't be arsed to sign up for an account (with the exception of DoomDragon6) who are shitting the place up. But there are probably only at most 2 of you. You must be very bored.
Interesting. This development seems suspicious at best. If true, wow, I'll have to do some re-reading of the archives. Didn't believe it at all when people first started talking about it, but now I'm more open to the possibility. Who is "esoteric scribe" and why would FSM suddenly 'collaborate' with someone who just showed up today? I've been reading for awhile and ES is not a regular poster.
I don't know who ES is, but I was the one who suggested they collaborate, so unless FSM decided that he wanted to have TWO sites to keep updated, it really wouldn't make any sense that they are the same person.
It's true, I wasn't a regular poster. I've made a handful of comments at one point or another but for the most part I was just another lurker on the site.
But I've got a lot of free time on my hands these days and FSM's posting had been slowing down, so I figured "what the hell".
First I made my own blog and then the user Julia quickly suggested I email FSM and ask to co-blog with him.
So I did, and now I am.
If you really want proof of my identity as neither Kurtz nor Straub, nor even a persona created by FSM, check out my personal blog: http://esotericscribe.livejournal.com
Hey ES - your Livejournal has only been around since the first of this month, so I don't know what you're trying to prove other than you know how to sign up for LJ.
And I liked the first entry's line about "deleting the archives" for some reason. How convenient for you.
Face it, Scott. You got caught out of your own stupidity, just own up and be a man instead of hiding like you do.
Achewood
In my opinion, there is no finer web comic than Achewood. You want subtlety of art and a one-of-a-kind worldview? This is it.
Penny Arcade
The classic. Gabe and Tycho are true pioneers in the world of web comics, and few have done more to expand the reach and influence of the medium. Plus they're funny.
Diesel Sweeties
Like PVP, DS has been coasting for some time. But it is worth reading, nonetheless.
PVP
Yes, I do recommend it; its very popularity is what recommends it. It is the ultimate example that web comics can have mainstream appeal, and shouldn't be disregarded by the industry just because they're web comics.

I think I've seen this movie. The dragon dies at the end.
No movie?!
:(
Now we don't know who's Kurtz and who isn't Kurtz.
Maybe I'm Kurtz.
Who. Fucking. Knows.
The shadow knows.

fuck.
Oh yeah, I REMEMBER THAT! Oh SHIT, I never put two and two together.
You son of a BITCH.
Ok, I will say it again:
Fake Scott McCloud is not Scott Kurtz.
since this site existed for at least a week before Kurtz noticed it...I'd say that's a pretty safe assumption.
You mean before he publicly acknowledged it?
Are you serious?
Well, even if FSM really is the real SK, he's still playing along that he's not, so we can continue our discussions about PvP. So it's best everyone just forgets this ever happened.
"Ok, I will say it again:

Why should we believe you-- SCOTT KURTZ???
You know, now may be a good time to turn off anon commenting, since they seem to be the only ones shitting up the place now.
Sorry Kurtz, fun time is over.
You can't close Pandora's Box, asshole.
It's always the anonymous commenters shitting up the place. They will go away.
Everyone here is an anonymous posted. Even "The Fake Scott McCloud."
The only reason I anon comment is because I cannot remember my username or password, and I cannot be arsed to make a new one!
So there.

I guess he is just angry at his Iphone.
Idk, why would you need someone else to delete your twitter post? Oh well i guess its another try at whatever he likes to try.
Post your real name or you're full of shit.
Does that apply to the people who run this site as well?
My real name is Ben Stewart.
And FSM is Scott Kurtz.
"Post your real name or you're full of shit."
... said Anonymous.
=D

its a trap!
Scott really wants to know who is Fake scott Mcloud, so he making a rumor forcing the real scott Mcloud to reveal his ID

Anon 11:41,
If you go to ES's LJ profile, and click more info at the bottom, it shows it's been around since 2007.
Oh okay, so either Kurtz or Straub registered it last year. "Esoteric Scribe" sounds a lot like Straub's sense of humor. Still fake.
Wow, this is quite a controversy. I wonder why Scott Kurtz would go through all the trouble to create this alter ego if it's really him?
What little I've read of this site, if it is Kurtz writing it, shows an amazing ability to self examine. If FSM really is Scott Kurtz, Bravo!
