Everyone said he was done, he was over.
I disagreed.
People who are deluded, like Granito, never give up. They live to work the angles.
Rob, you're still scum.
Awww. Well, then who will we play with? Who possibly could we discuss who has no shame and has done something current?
Hm? What's this??
Dear Comics News, Blogs, and Journalists:
March 2011 was a month that the comics industry, and comics fandom, was not expecting! A month where suddenly comics websites became 'TMZ-like', and scandal and tabloid excitement erupted. This was due to the controversial Rob Granito.
We ask you to consider looking past personal feelings and judgement to consider the following:
-A Facebook Group about Robert Granito had over 3,000 members in less than a week
-Websites such as comicsalliance, Wired, and many others made Rob Granito a major headline
-An entire convention panel is due to Rob Granito, called 'How Should An Artist React To Being Granito'd'?
So, regardless of personal judgement you must admit that Rob Granito creates controversy- and controversy attracts attention. Rob Granito gets attention. Rob Granito gets people talking.
The Blog owner at All Things Geeky even explained how he had thousands of visitors to his site when he had never experienced that before. Rob Granito has gotten more attention and caused more talking amongst his detractors and his fans than any other comics professional!
Now is YOUR chance to take advantage of this red-hot story. As Charlie Sheen has proven in the mainstream media, controversy sells. It has been proven, and suggested by the convention fans blog that Rob Granito is the Charlie Sheen of Comics. And just like Charlie Sheen caused MAJOR headlines with his controversial 20/20 interview, now YOU can get Rob Granito to sit for an interview for your site or blog!
Rob Granito will live up to his image as the bad boy of comics, who admits he has made some mistakes (but who hasn't?) but also points out that comics fandom at large does not know the WHOLE story. Find out how Rob Granito began as an artist. Discover what his experience was with the legendary Dave Stevens. Find out what REALLY went down with Mark Waid. Learn how Rob feels about the comics professionals who have derided his name in the past few weeks like Ty Templeton Jamar Igle, Al Rio, and more!
We assure you Rob Granito will live up to his interview commitments. We guarantee candid, explanatory revelations. Rob Granito proved he shook up the world in March 2011! Now watch him light up the Spring comics schedule. "I will keep going to conventions", he says. Also, why did BleedingCool decide to break the Rob Granito story out of nowhere? Why was it pursued with such a fever? "There is more there that you dont know about", says Rob.
ALL WEBSITES: the following is a list of Rob' interview fees
-e-mail interview (20 questions ONLY) $150.00 PayPal
-30 minute phone interview $200.00 PayPal
-1 Hour Phone or Skype interview $250.00 PayPal
Thank you for your time. We look forward to working with you.

Has anyone seen J-Bolt and Granito at the same time??
Award-Winning Award Winner!

Rob, you're still scum.
I wonder how much it costs to throw bowling balls at him for daring to mention Dwayne McDuffie's name in his pathetic rants?
"Able to leap powerful bullets with a speeding bound!"
"Able to do powerful speed while on a single locomotive?"
"Just so you know...
Y'all are weird."-Larry Dixon
They should be Nerf bowling balls for safety, but yeah, that is one horrible, horrible human being.
The truth is, I feel sorry for J-bolt. He craves celebrity so BAD that he doesn't care if it's only in his mind.
As we have said a million times, if he'd shut the fuck up, quit pretending he knows the industry, work on his art, he could actually have a career.
A comic isn't an EASY thing to do, but lots of less talented people do it.
Every time anyone has offered him help, he is too full of bs to take it.
It's frustrating.
It's a shame that he takes the attacks an as excuse for failing. Because then he hasn't failed, he had all the cards stacked against him by people who MADE him fail.
If I wanted to break into the business, I wouldn't come in with the attitude of "Fuck You, Gail Simone and everybody else! I'm J-Bolt and I'm AWESOMMMME!!!" If someone in the industry looked at my stuff and said it sucks, I'd be angry but I'd also be SMART enough to say "What should I do about it? I want to learn to be better".
So instead of making enemies, Bolty, why not just ASK FOR HELP??? If you become successful, then later on you can fuck everybody over and lie your ass off and say "I did it all by myself". If you're going to lie about your work anyway, do it after somebody has helped you with the heavy lifting. LOL

Heck, with Print on Demand services like Ka-Blam or Comixpress he could have his books published and available for sale anytime he wants. If I could illustrate my own books I'd be churning them out this way on a monthly basis.
J-Bolt just needs to stop fooling around with his delusions and do the work. Stop posting press releases on a site that no one but his detractors visit. Stop babbling about movies and conspiracies. Just do it.
Well, he said the books are coming this month. That's the closest thing to a deadline he has given in years. Let's hope he makes it.
I would buy ten copies, guaranteed.
