So, Tim Buckley can add thief to his resume containing dickbag to his fans, pedophile, misogynist and being abusive to women.

Oh, I was just looking up clothing references and found one I liked. So I copied the entire image wholesale.

But there was nothing villainous about it, you see. Because I'm Tim Buckley.

Tim Buckley.

You don't understand just how sycophantic his fans are.

And his fans are the only people who give a shit about him. Everyone else realizes he's a hack and better off ignored.

He really isn't getting it that it's not just the clothes he has copied.

Oh, I do know. I was online at the time when he disbanded his guild, The Rapscallions (or whatever the fuck the name of the guild was), on Dark Iron.

Logged on drunk and pissed off, told everyone in the guild to fuck off, then kicked everyone out and logged off with the guild name remaining on his character.

I'm kind of curious why there's so much outrage this time though, when B^Uckley has copy pasta'd copyrighted material into his comic before (namely photographs for backgrounds).

Not sure you could call that mimicry as thievery unless he claimed the character design as his own work instead of inspired :effort:

Could he claim copyright on the character? If he could claim copyright on the character, then he's claiming the design as his own work.

He did just that, actually. He essentially said that he doesn't care what people think, because it was his character, while being a complete B^U'd version of one single "reference" image.
