'BOUNDING INTO COMICS'---THE AROMA OF THE SHILL

   Not surprisingly, less than 48 hours after Vox Day announced his newest grandiose project of a foray into film, his abject toadies at the Bounding Into Comics site dashed off an article filled with effusive praise for the upcoming project. John F. Trent, the CEO of Bounding Into Comics, never passes up an opportunity to give his approval to any enterprise with which Vox Day is connected. 

  Now, while looking over Bounding Into Comics today, we struck with an interesting disclaimer posted at the bottom of the site. It reads: "Some of the organizations with products on our site may pay us a referral fee or affiliate commission when you click to apply for those products."

   This is especially interesting when one observes that Bounding Into Comics reports over $5 million in annual revenues and doesn't seem to have much in the way of actual product it generates on its own website. While there's nothing illegal in any of this, it does make one wonder just how 'independent' Bounding Into Comics' opinions and reviews actually are. Especially after hiring a large advertiser facilitating firm in 2017 to beef up their financially influential connections.

  "Before joining Intermarkets, Bounding Into Comics had neither a proactive growth or monetization strategy. Within a month of joining Intermarkets’ Portfolio, users on boundingintocomics.com increased 350 percent. As a result, Bounding Into Comics has been able to focus on expanding both their publishing and editorial team, as well as seeing a steady increase in revenues."

   Thus it doesn't appear that Bounding Into Comics is quite the 'grassroots' organization it portrays itself to be. Intermarkets Media is led by one Kevin Lucido---a rather shady individual who also heads Aurora Media Inc. Lucido, like many Red Pills, seems to have a penchant for launching frivolous lawsuits against his enemies. What's even more interesting though, is that Aurora Media and Bounding Into Comics not only are located in the same city, they share the same business address. This address is 1818 Library Street in Reston, Virginia. And guess what's really at this address?

   Where have we seen this kind of thing happening before? But more suspicious than simply sharing a blind address with Kevin Lucido, we have to ask exactly what the relationship between Bounding Into Comics and Aurora Media really is. John Trent has published articles in Tell Me Now and The Political Insider---both of which are subsidiaries of Aurora Media. Incidentally, here's a specimen of the level of reporting at these publications:

     
    Trent was a huge supporter of Gamergate and has been a leader in the so-called Comicsgate movement along with Vox Day. Now is it any coincidence that Trent hooked up with Lucido in 2017, right after Comicsgate launched? Because another Lucido owned business is Sports: Unstoppable---an online gaming site. 

   To reiterate: there's nothing (apparently) illegal in any of Trent's or Lucido's, or Vox Day's dealings here. But it all looks mighty queer and something that a legitimate enterprise would prudently avoid.
