Because they're not Harlan Ellison.

Ligotti's too much of an autistic shut-in to care. he's probably just happy he's selling more books.

Can confirm. I bought a book by him just because of this show :v

>sueing Jews

Son...

Why didn't Namco sue? Marty and Rust are Paul and Bryan.

I don't get it

Intellectual thievery.

how is Moore connected to True Detective?

So did most people, same with Chambers.

he has a comic with a character named lovecraft

thx captain obvious

you're welcome

I actually just found out he sells some of his own books on amazon. he signs them and includes advances publisher copies and shit.

You know the bit at the end of the first season, where Rust is talking about the light winning? Basically lifted verbatim from an issue of Top 10.

Bro...

Euugghh. This is terrible. True Detective did it better.

Ugh, the dingus left out the one important panel.

Here. It is rather verbatim in actuality. And silly as the material appears, tonally within the whole of the comic the stuff packs a punch when you get there

I'm not a dingus, you're a dingus.

Dingus.

Oh it shows, OP, it shows

What's the similarity between Ligotti and TD? Haven't watched TD yet although I'm excited to

I get the notion that a lot of this was Pizzolato reading Ligotti with a pad of paper and a pen in hand. He changes just enough that it isn't a 1:1 case of plagiarism, but...

And this shouldn't be construed as a warning away from the first season, as it's excellent. But the second season is incredibly disappointing.

Pizza BTFO.

Season two provided he was just a thieving hack without any original ideas.

>what is entropy

>hack
What is a hack? Sorry Engrish not my first language.

>what is Google?

What is the comic?

Top 10.

Because nonfiction is fair game in fiction.

Because it is a "homage"

What is passive aggressively defended a stranger?

>Haven't watched TD yet although I'm excited to

don't be, you'll end up very disappointed
