And it looks like everything has been redrawn, look at the text and the guy's arm in the third panel... I suspect AI slopiting to remove the watermark and author's name.

OP already mentioned in another post that they "really don't like watermarks" so I wouldn't be surprised.

Thanks for reposting the original btw

Edit: okay I just checked their history and it goes waaaay beyond that... I'm blocking them. It's awful to think like this and not to support artists in a world where capitalism does everything it can to erase art from the surface of the earth.

I love how dude is like 'There should be a rule against ads'(AKA artist attribution lol) meanwhile dude completely ignores the rule of limiting a user to 2 posts a day.

Also in that post they said we should link to the source instead and then proceeds to not do that.

I never saw them say that. I saw them begrudgingly say that if the rule was enforced they would follow it. Which isn't a good position either.

At the end of the post.

Linking to the source should be the primary way of attribution.

That sounds more like "If I have to do attribution, I'd rather it be with a link instead of watermarks", based on the context of the post. Not that they want to attribute, just if they have to, do it in a way they prefer.

Oh, it's that individual

This is so weird because this is something that hats just quicker to do without AI. Like every freaking phone and pc has the tools to do this and it’s dirt simple.

Like I agree they shouldn’t at all and comics should get credited. And also I’m annoyed because this is dirt simple to do without slopping it up with AI.

And the white space in the faces, and the line art is all heavier with less contrast.
