It's actually a fairly long running thing -- I drew my line in the sand a year ago when, in spite of his public attacks on the show's target demographic -- it persisted in inviting known internet scumbag Adam Baldwin. His remarks were an affront to a lot of people I know well professionally and in my own fanbase, and went against everything I stood for personally, and the nonchalant response from the show's organiser was insulting. After that a number of other things came up, some of which are addressed in this article on Bleeding Cool: www.bleedingcool.com/2016/06/0… and this Kotaku article: www.kotaku.com.au/2016/06/peop…

The other day, the screenshot posted in both of those articles was brought to my attention.

Now, I get that everyone is entitled to free speech blah blah blah, but free speech requires freedom, and freedom means a lack of oppression, and homophobia -- PARTICULARLY Danny's homophobia -- is based in religion -- both of which are horrible forms of oppression.

I will not be attending any of the Supanova conventions. I can't support a show where someone like this profits the most. And profit he does. By paying the overpriced table/booth/site fees, you're lining his pockets. By attending and paying for photographs and autographs, you're lining his pockets. Of course, business is business and some of it goes to pay the obvious, but at the end of the day, the only one getting rich out of these things is the organizer.

There are PLENTY of small shows we comic professionals appear at and a handful of other bigger shows. I honestly implore people to think carefully about where they decide to put their money, because at the end of the day, that's pretty much the bottom line for a repeat offender trans and homophobic person. Feel free to spread the word.
