Gail we're going to be blacklisted! WORLDWIDE!

passifistic is the best mispelling ever. At one point he looked at "passive" and thought "yeah this works"... passifistic.\

setting the record straight on the 2 Fishers:
Omar...
Your question has been asked and answered several times, but the forum has been taken down from my company site and it sounds as though the bash forums have taken the answer off of their forums: most likely because it showed them to be the fools they are, which they just won't allow.
Jim Fisher: he is an artist/color artist/SFX designer that I've known for quite a long time. He's very shy and doesn't like for his picture to be taken, which means he doesn't like personal exposure. Rather, he prefers that his work be what he's known as, instead of his image.
J.B. Fisher: he is an expose' reporter that I met when I did a little bit of journalism a number of years back, who keeps trying to retire but is asked by different newspapers to do stories for them because he has no problem about making enemies, no matter who they are, when he does his research and writes the stories. When the Ashcan was being put together, I knew that the best way for the interview to be done was by getting the toughest expose' reporter I could think of in order to make the interview a little more spicy. So, I gave him that job. He did his research on me/my company/ the comic that the Ashcan was promoting and we conducted the interview. To give example of how unbiased this guy is, he's even made enemies out of some of his own family members who ran crooked businesses. By the way, the name similarities, between the 2 Fishers, is what caught my attention about him, when we met. That could be construed as coincidence, but it's what opened up conversation between us, when we met.
I hope this helps you and I appreciate your sentry of my interests. I won't forget it.

the GREATEST J-Bolt post EVER:

BombShellzBoy...
I can never say a definite as to Sam's involvement, until the contracts are signed, My Friend. The bashers caused some doubt with Sam's agent, so that could be a determining factor as well. Once we've acquired the last due diligence monies, I'll have a more definite answer.
Your zeal concerning Ginger is quite refreshing. I'll be anxious to receive word back from her, and we can go from there to see what happens.
I believe Ginger said that she has decided to try acting, after having been a model for this amount of time. Considering that I modeled men's wear from 1987 - 1992 (to learn another form of entertainment... and it was a lot of fun), I know that models have a great deal of talent, from what I saw of the other male and the female models. So, her audition tape will be the clincher.
Your other questions for her are quite pertinent and I can't wait to see her answers, as well.
J-

J-Bolt-actor, artist, inventor, businessman... MALE MODEL.

my stomach hurts from laughing so hard.

I have three words:

he'd like custom J-Bolt smilies:
Admins...
Would it be possible to ask a favor, concerning an emoticon? Everyone has seen that I like using the sunglasses emoticon when I sign my posts (the reasoning is rather obvious). Is it possible to create a J-Bolt emoticon, with a red rim around the sunglasses (I don't use the monolense mask anymore, having turned to a more current style with normal 2 lense construction), and long brown hair? I don't wear a mustache or goatee anymore, so facial hair would not work anymore, though I still keep my sideburns to the bottom of my earlobes... and I was talked into getting "more with the times" by getting my ear pierced last year, but a lightning bolt earring wouldn't fit on an emoticon, I'm sure. This favor has nothing to do with vanity; I just think it would be kinda' kewl to personalize my post signings even more. Lemme' know what ya' think.
As for the avatars, if you like, for the purpose of this site, would you like to use the characters on the LBC character wheel (that Boltess uses the whole thing as her avatar) to create individual avatars? Again, lemme' know.

the "Truth" from J-Bolt
Omar...
I just read your other posts and I can't thank you enough for your words. On the same note, considering the comiccon post, I read further down, and saw Simone's attack on me there. Since you desire to hear the facts of the situation, in order to help stop their bashings, I'm going to address each of Simone's rants and give you the correct information:

Simone: "J-bolt sent out, in his typically mangled English (which is no crime, but he insists he has awards for writing, which seems a bit of a stretch, unless he was heavily edited), a spam email to most reviewers, talking about his website. It was funny, but no one paid attention, so he sent one that was a bit more angry...why weren't we covering his website, he asked."

The truth: I sent out a press release concerning the poster, Ashcan, the beta website, and the BombShell movie to all the Internet comic news sites/resources and did so only once. As a result comiccon created a webpage, on their site, completely devoted to praising the poster. I never got angry at any news source that did not do a story and the only other press releases that were sent out, were concerning breaking follow-ups. I most certainly never even hinted to anyone something so ridiculous as: "why weren't we covering his website."

Simone: "So I went to look, and a few others did as well. And it was the funniest, craziest thing I'd ever seen. I just fell in love with it. The guy made these crazy claims...'Spielburg' wanted to direct the movie based on his character, a character that had never ever (and still hasn't, to this day, years later) appeared in a comic. He had fan clubs. He had to change his name because he was swamped by fans and media everywhere he went, and his Bombshell movie (which the co-producer says does not exist) was being rumored to be the first film to go to the Academy Awards...on and on. Pages of this stuff."

The truth: Every "claim" I said was completely true, but she twisted and lied about what I said. The first director I went to, concerning the BombShell movie, was Speilburg. I got through his 3 assistants, who all knew of the project and was told, by his personal assistant (the last link in the chain to get through), that Mr. Speilburg would have no problem looking over the script, but for me to know that he was booked up for the following 3 years. Hence, I was introduced to Stewart Raffill and we hit it off greatly, with him being more than happy to direct the film. As you know, by this site, there are fan clubs and, at that time, I was notified of this by the President of the Japan LBC fan club. When my publicity first started, in 1987, I used my real name and wore regular clothes. I ended up being recognized wherever I went, in Vegas, so I layed low for about a year, giving time for people to forget about me temporarily, then came back in 1988 with the mask, outfits, and J-Bolt name, which went over very well with people, especially kids, and allowed me to have the privacy I and my family wanted. Jackson Bostwick (my co-producer) has talked many times about his involvement, even going so far as to let the bashers know one time that he is involved with the production, when they wrote him, and would not respond to their constant harassing afterwards. This can easily be proven, not only because of his response to them, but I am working on acquiring an un-cut episode of "Where Are They Now" from VH-1, where they interviewed Jackson, and he went in-depth about his involvement with the project, but most of all his interview was edited down, from what Jackson told me. Anyone else can ask VH-1 about that as well.
And there have been actual rumors started that the film could be one of the first comic book based films to be nominated for a mainstream subject Oscar. I didn't start the rumor: other professionals, who were allowed access to it, started the rumor and it spread from there.

Simone: "I thought it was fun. Honestly, good luck to him. Some of the language was so odd that really, anyone who knew the slightest bit about comics could see through the claims immediately. He was going to be the next big competition to DC and Marvel. Not only that, but they had actively tried to shut him down because they were so worried."

The truth: She claims to wish me luck, yet she attacks me with extreme venom whenever someone supports me. Luck, my butt. Anyone who knew the slightest bit about comics? Would that include Steve Carr (one of the creators behind the Kyle Rayner Green Lantern)? How about Charles Atlas, Ltd., who has been involved with comics since they were known as "funny books," and publicly refers to LBC as "the future of comics," who will only advertise in Marvel, Image, and LBC titles, who has only given rights to publish Charles Atlas comics and merchandise to LBC when we're ready to do so? Just as 2 examples, would they be considered as knowing anything about comics? Nobody tried to shut me down... they tried to bully me into selling my company to them, when the publicity first came out. A representative of Marvel had the gaul to offer me $250,000 for my entire company and characters, when I can make that amount in the selling/advertising monies brought in from one single title/issue. I can't say if it was because they were worried because I don't know what was in their heads but, obviously, they at least saw the potential behind what I was doing, even then.

Simone: "That a well-known pro (transparently Marv Wolfman) stole one of his characters.
That if people would subscribe to his website and pay a monthly fee, they would get online versions of lots of LBC comics, none of which were ever produced (beyond the advertorial ashcan and a single issue of one comic, stuff that was available four years ago), and print versions of same (none of which were ever produced, and beta versions of video games, none of which were ever produced.
He claimed Marvel moved the release date of the Daredevil movie to avoid competing with Bombshell (which had yet to begin filming, and may never)."

The truth: A well-known pro did steal the second Bolt costume design, when I showed it to him at an Anniversary party they held in 1985, at a Vegas comic book store, and I didn't have the costume registered with the Library Of Congress at the time (as a teenager), but later found out that it was copyrighted in 1981 as a result of the first design being published in a school newspaper. I won't say the artist's name because there was an agreement made that they don't use their Bolt as a primary character and I won't sue them or give names. At the time of the website's creation, I was able to produce monthly comics. Then, the introduction of the BombShell character caused a great deal of fan mail which landslided into the movie within a month, taking away the time I had available. Whenever I said a comic would definitely be out at a certain time, it was out. If I wasn't sure, I have always given a targeted date with a disclaimer that the date was not concrete. I had job positions open for a video game creator to break into the business by creating the BombShell beta video game in exchange for a commission of the membership proceeds along with a steady job once the game went commercial, besides the exposure of creating the game. Nobody ever submitted to take on the job, so the game never happened. And that's my fault? I never said that Marvel moved Daredevil in order to "avoid competing with Bombshell". I clearly said that it was coincidental that Daredevil was due to be released in November and BombShell was due to be released on Valentine's Day, then Marvel moved the best time, for merchandising, of releasing a film to that Valentine's Day, so I moved BombShell's release date because there was no way that I could compete with Daredevil on my first film based upon a much less known character than Daredevil. I have acquired the film's budget for the movie: I'm just waiting on the funds needed for the due-diligence process to get that money, which cannot be just taken out of the budget... so the film is being made.

Crowley

04-24-2005, 05:11 AM

continued:
Simone: "At that point, he moved beyond being a funny guy with a weird website into someone asking for money for things that would never exist."

The truth: Does this sound like words coming from someone who "wishes me luck"? I have made things exist that they said never would, but they keep changing their story everytime I prove them wrong.

Simone: "On top of that, he offered a 'point' of the profits of his movie, first for a million, then on EBAY for 35k (I think...I have that info but I'm going by memory), then 14K. His account is currently suspended."

The truth: She just showed that her "memory" of facts is greatly flawed. The bidding on the point, for the film, started at $14k with a reserve of $50k and only received the first bid of the $14k before I got the funding, from the Investment Firm, which I previously started an auction for the first $million seed money to start the full production, as finishing funds are easier to acquire. I suspended the account because it didn't get the results I desired and ended up being a financial burden.

Simone: "The only person I know who ever bought anything from him (four copies of his poster), never receieved the product."

The truth: Again, her "memory" fails her and, this time, concerning her buddy, MacQuarrie. He order 5 of the posters and they were sent to him, personally put in the mail by me, as better judgement eluded me knowing that he'd pull something by placing the order, which he did in telling people that he didn't receive it. He did not pay extra for sending it certified or any other method of tracking, and I wasn't going to pay for it for him, and I believe he did so on purpose with the intent on there not being any proof that he received them.

Simone: "Among other howlers, he claimed on his site that Warren Ellis was out to get him because Warren worked for DC and didn't want the competition."

The truth: At the same time that Simone and her ilk started their witch-hunt on me, they also started it on Ellis' forum and Ellis joined in, being friends of theirs. I don't know what his motivation was, other than not wanting to go against what his buddies and followers were saying, but I do know that she works for DC and I didn't know enough about Ellis to make that sort of claim.

Simone: "I'm not going to speak for Jason, but his version of the events is somewhat different from J-bolt's. Additionally, a husband/wife team of creators he touted on his site were extremely unhappy in their dealings with him, and a color studio made claims of non-payment. Regardless, since that original ashcan and online comic, no additional comics, games, or other content other than advertorial have been created, running on three plus years now."

The truth: The "Jason's version" that they talk about comes from them, not Jason. The newspaper story that had Jason's picture in it, and his along with the other students, public compliments of the class, on top of their evaluation that I was unaware of, which gave me perfect ratings as a teacher, tell what Jason's thoughts about my class were. As soon as the news story proved against their "Jason said that he was never in your class" crap, they immediately changed it to "well, Jason never liked your class." The husband/wife team that she so thoughtlessly mentioned were Mark & Steph Heike, and their problem with me was that they are partners in AC Comics and they were ticked off that my Bolt was proven to be copyrighted in 1981, whereas their Bolt was copyrighted in 1984 and I wouldn't give mine up. So, they refused to work any further for me on the BombShell comic book. The problem with the color studio was that I didn't accept their work, and they wouldn't give me proofs on all of it, but wanted to be paid for all of the unseen work that I didn't like what was done... and obviously, I refused, having Jim Fisher color it in 2 different styles. I've already covered why the games haven't come out, but there has been another comic to come out, being the preview of BombShell #1. They've been harassing me for over 5 years, not 3. Her memory of the facts really sucks, for someone who keeps publicly attacking me the way they do.

Simone: "His website is down because his 'mainframe' is out. He once admitted he was doing everything himself, but now repeats the claims that he has an empire with dozens of employees. He claims he's spent thousands maintaining his website, but the links almost never work and it's often closed for non-payment, and in the past, he's said he did the website himself. I think he forgets what he claims sometimes."

The truth: For a short period of time, our computer mainframe (or server... whichever you prefer) did indeed go on the fritz, not allowing us to make the site changes that we were working on. At the start of my company, I was doing everything myself. How many businesses didn't start out that way? I've never claimed an "empire," I've stated that I have dozens of employees, now, that are located in different regions of the Country. Thousands have been spent on developing the site and only recently have the links had problems because we've had to change priorities on company operations. It has never been closed for non-payment, unless you consider when I've dropped a webhost to go to another, better one, and the former would publish a non-payment page to avoid their own indescretions. A couple of hosts have even tried to keep the original lightning-bolt-comics.com name, which the last one succeeded only to find that they can't use it, since I own the name. I did create the original site's concept and built it: the beta site. Then, I hired numerous other site designers to help me with it. And it grew from there... which is called industrial evolution. Simone is the one who forgets what I say, let alone what she and her cronies say.

Simone: "At one point, he had claimed that he was selling tons of product through his website, even though, oddly enough, every single link on the site where you could purchase anything had been broken for nearly a year."

The truth: The site's links have not been broken for even close to a year. It has been the past few months, due to what I just previously said about operation priorities. We have sales coming in all the time, of merchandise, and we even have days where no merchandise sells; I never claimed to be selling tons of products.

Simone: "A dream is a great thing, and I'll tell you the truth, I've said it a hundred times, if J-bolt keeps ONE promise, and delivers ONE thing, I don't care what, I'll be so delighted you cannot imagine. I shall shout from the rooftops, and I'll be first in line to buy it. I've said I'd happily write a script and donate it, IF I had any belief that the thing would ever be drawn."

The truth: This is no dream: it is reality and that has been proven hundreds of times over. Want more information to prove that they are full of it? Remember how they keep saying that Adam West does not claim to have any involvement with the project? Well, how about reading the words from his people in this link http:www.thekaufmancompany.com/Batcave2.htm? Scroll down about half way and you'll read what they say about his involvement, then you can figure out who is lying. Everytime I've made a promise, I've kept it and delivered it, yet the only thing she, and her ilk, are "delighted" to "shout from the rooftops" is more obsenities about me and my company. The proof is in the pudding, as they say. When she said she would write a script for me, she did so in breach of the exclusive contract she had with DC. Oh yeah... there's an honest person, who keeps their word, for ya'.

Simone: "Me? I still hope he gets his movie made, or gets a comic made. I'd love to give him some money, seriously, and it would delight me in a very genuine manner if something he promised actually came to pass."

The truth: If she wished for any success from me, she would stop trying to interfere with my progress, which this one single post can possibly cause more doubters from her fans on this forum, and tell her cronies to stop as well. Everything I've promised has come to pass. They just will not admit it.

I hope this helps you in your quest, My Friend. If I seemed like I was going on a tangeant, please keep in mind that I was not doing so at you, but I was at Simone's audacity to put all this out, while claiming to be a supporter of my business, let alone putting all this out in just one single post alone. Also note that the newsarama post she made, concerning me, tried to get you to take it on her turf, so that she had her buddies to help gang up on you. It just goes to show that these animals travel in packs.

"Now, don't take my passive attitude on here as allowing the bashers to get away with what they've done. Civil/criminal charges are in the works against them on top of what I'm going to be doing in order to villify them Worldwide, using the added publicity they ended up giving me with their unsuccessful attacks. Those attacks ended up making me a martyr and showing what types of mules they really are. The support I get from people like you is staggering and greatly appreciated. By the time I finish with all the bashers, they won't have anywhere to go, without public hatred, no place to work, because who will want to employ someone that the whole World hates which would reflect on the success of their business as their current employment places are also being exposed, etc. In short, by the time I've opened my bottle of champagne to celebrate, they'll have lost everything they hold dear, which includes, if/when the criminal charges are indicted, their freedom. How's that for giving a good fight? The best part is... as each portion of my onslaught reigns upon them, they'll never know when or what hit them, no matter what warning they have here or anywhere else. That's the most tortuous part for them: waiting for each shoe to drop... and I love it. So, don't think me weak or passifistic, My Friend. That thought couldn't be farther from the truth. "

SFX Designer? Didn't J-Bolt say that he was going to be in the 2006 Who's Who because of an sfx device he designed that NASA was interested in? No wonder they work so well together, Jim Fisher and J-Bolt have so much in common.

04-24-2005, 10:29 AM

Good lord what a lot of bullshit.

Seeing as how I know Jason, and worked with Jason, I think I trust Jason's words over J-bolt's. I'm not going to bring what Jackson said into this, as I don't have his permission, but I repeat, Jackson's a stand-up guy. And it was Adam West himself who said he had no idea about being committed to the project, but honestly, that was never a sticking point for me. Actors get 'committed' to things that never happen all the time.

Fortunately, I still have almost every J-Bolt email.

When no one responded to his first email except to laugh, he, pretending to be a publicist (but with the exact same mangled grammar), wrote this to all the websites under the title, WE ARE SUPRISED...

"We, at Lightning Bolt Comics, were wondering why you guys have not been
to
our site to see the biggest new competition of DC, Marvel, etc. and to
experience the World's first REAL online comic book.
We've placed you very highly. In that, we would value your opinion on
what
we have on LBC's Official site, as we are constantly updating it.
Now mind you...it does have a longer load time due to the highest
quality
graphics involved, but we're sure that you will feel satisfied with it
once
you see it.
Have you ever seen any of the other comic publishers publish their
titles/issues ONLINE BEFORE they hit the newsstands in hard-copy? If
not,
come and see why we've been beating them all and the top artists in the
field are coming to work for us.
Besides that, one of the fans favorite LBC characters, BombShell, is in
preparation for the big screen with Rena Mero attached to play the
"Gorgeous Psychotic" in the film that is already pronounced as the
first
possible comic-based movie to go to the Academy Awards.
Now...we would like to see if there was a way for our mutual websites
to
collaborate on banners and promotional with each other. As a matter of
fact, if you'd like to be involved with a comic book affiliation plan,
we'd
be more than happy to give you a percentage of any new members that
sign up
due to your promotion of us. Likewise, we'll also place your banner on
our
main site.
We have achieved pre-approval for this offer from the LBC President,
J-Bolt, and are sending a copy of this e-mail to him as he thoroughly
enjoys your site and would love to have this opportunity for us to work
together.
If you want any other scoops on LBC, let us know.
Lightning Bolt Comics Promotions Department
and
J-Bolt
President

IT'S HERE!

It was then that I asked quite politely if it was a hoax, and that was when he started flipping out, with the classic like, "It is J-Bolt who believes YOU whom are the hoax!"

I laughed about that for a solid week.

04-24-2005, 10:34 AM

And it was Adam West himself who said he had no idea about being committed to the project, but honestly, that was never a sticking point for me. Gail

But if you look at J-Bolt's proof about it, it is not Adam West or any of his people who mentioned J-Bolt. It is a reporter for the Newsday/Tribune, who probably got her information from IMDB.com

"They've asked me for years to go away," says West, who now lives in Idaho. "I just hang on by my fingernails, and if that fails, my teeth. I've been very fortunate. I keep working."

And he does, with projects including the 2001 Roger Corman series "Black Scorpion" and the upcoming feature film "BombShell," inspired by the Lightning Bolt Comics character.

Hey Gail, he does bring up one point I have always been curious about. Since you have signed an exclusive deal with DC, what would have happened if J-Bolt took you up on your offer? I mean, I have a better chance of starting a religion that Jbolt taking you up on your offer, so this is just out of curiosity.

Gail Simone

04-24-2005, 11:07 AM

First, I offered the script in good humor, because I feel bad he can't spell or construct a sentence. Unlike J-bolt, I always speak plainly and have a whole lot of ACTUAL, PUBLISHED WORK to point to in evidence that I have some idea of what I'm talking about. However, and this has been pointed out to him repeatedly:

1) At the time I wrote that, my DC exclusive was almost up. He obviously has no idea what a real freelancer does or how an exclusive works. All I would have had to do, if I really wanted to do such a thing, was wait a few weeks and I'd be free to work for any company I wanted. I did in fact re-up for two more years, but could have easily done the work between those agreements, as freelancers do regularly.

2) DC has allowed myself and many others to make exceptions to their agreements. For example, Greg Rucka is allowed to do Queen and Country, I'm allowed to do Bongo work, etc. This is no secret, anyone actually knowledgeable about the industry would likely know it. Even when not stipulated in the agreement, DC allows for shorter works, on occasion, for special pieces...like I have a piece coming up in a Dark Horse anthology that they were kind enough to allow. All I have to do is ask, and DC is wonderfully obliging.

3) My exclusive applies only to comics. I'm allowed to write novels, TV, webcomics (all of which I've done or am working on), etc. all I want. Since the odds of a real LBC book appearing in Diamond are darn near unimaginable, that's yet another reason why this is perfectly okay.

4) As usual, J-Bolt's missing the irony here. Someone asked, hey, why don't we come up with the money to print this book so he can just put it out? And my exact quote was...

"Ian, I'd absolutely not give him a dime, because you'd never see it again. HOWEVER, if I thought he'd actually do any real work other than hype, I'd gladly donate a script for him to draw, and promote the hell out of it.

I really did want him to succeed."

I think anyone here whose sense of reality isn't a burnt-out crater can see the irony. He keeps promoting this, when the truth of the matter is...

5) ...I'd never had to do the script because we all know full well the book would never, ever, come out. Not online, not in print, not as a cgi movie, not as a mego figure, and not as a thermos-laden tin lunchbox.

Sorry, J-Bolt. He keeps showing he doesn't know how comics work every time he talks about the industry.

Interesting that he never made this claim about a company trying to buy him out before. That's a funny one. Notice he doesn't say WHICH company (and of course, neither Joe Q nor Mike Carlin had a clue who he was). Funny he's never mentioned that previously.

I'm still wondering about Omar, though...I can't believe Omar would be this gullible. It doesn't add up--Omar's not stupid at all. Another weird twist!

I don't know Omar at all, only heard his name, this is the first time I have read his posts...but the vibe I am getting is that he is gullible or believes what Jim-Bolt is saying, but he is trying to start an arguement with everybody who is against J-Fisher...ie everybody else.

That's just it...Omar has apparently got a million enemies who hate him more than life itself, for whatever reason, I have no idea. But I've consistantly found that he's intelligent, and he often makes good points just to get shouted down by people who hate him for things he's said in the past.

I just don't see him as 'gullible.'.

Omar responds to J-Bolt:
Now that was an in-depth response. It's good to see that when provided with a level playing field and as much space as you want, you are able to refute each of the basher's points one by one. They like to pick things apart and mock one or two sentences out of context so it's good this forum exists to give fans an unfiltered dose of J-Bolt.

Unfortunately one side effect of this thread is that Gail Simone has ressurected the Comicon thread in question. She must have seen my reference to it here. Nothing new, she's just repeating the same tired old claims. But at least we know that the bashers are still lurking out there, pouring over each thread in this forum.

Gee, funny that they would be so concerned with a company that they supposedly don't think will ever amount to much.

Part of me thinks he realizes that the site Is a possible joke on J-Bolt and he's just playing along. From what everyone else has said about Omar he sounds smarter than what he's playing here.

Gail , J-Bolt claims Marvel approached him In one of his tangents In the late 90's and offered him 250 grand to sell his charactors. Its somewhere on the board of Jbolted. I'm trying to find that exact response.

Nah, Omar's screwing with him. It's obvious with his response to this:

"(I don't use the monolense mask anymore, having turned to a more current style with normal 2 lense construction)"

Hmmm... I hope it's not too radical a redesign. Remember when Rob Liefeld tried to replace the "A" on Captain America's mask with an eagle? I do. It's a tricky thing to go messing around with a classic costume. I trust the new lenses offer the same protection of your identity? When can we see a picture?

Not a bad choice, for appearance, 4th...
I'd have to see his acting ability, in order to judge whether he'd really fit the role, though. On top of that, the only Draco live-action media that we're developing is that of a musical for the reason that the story of Draco, Manes and the other characters involved ended up having the ingredients necessary for a dark musical, as was pointed out to me by the musical directors that have approached me with the concept.
Meanwhile, Draco will be in the When Lightning Strikes computer-animated feature film that is slotted to go into pre-production after BombShell's release.
It's good to see Kamron Boonteesud still has a shot at the role, if he can act.

It's been edited out now. There's a post on the movies board where that person made a snide comment toward the actress who posted her photos. One of the mods said their IP is similar to mine, but I guess they double-checked it. It's probably an easy mistake to make, since I'm on Earthlink, one of the larger ISP companies.

I'm glad they caught it. I haven't been taunting J-Bolt or harassing anybody or any of the other things he accuses me of. By the way, that business about me using free trial disks from various ISPs is a load of nonsense. I never did that. Not once.

The truth: I posted from home, from my office, from my brother-in-law's business, from my former freelance office, and a couple of times through a proxy. I never ever changed my access provider to fool J-Bolt or get around a ban at any of his sites. Period. The man is an idiot and a paranoid.

You might say that a mushroom cloud has an ominous beauty in that it's neal nice looking and yet you know that it's something that's terribly dangerous and a sign that a huge explosion has taken place.

"Ominous beauty" is a bit of awkard purple prose but it's not some vast sucking satanic vortex of anti-english that threatens to ruin all human communication and symbol manipulation.

Beauty is an attribute of something indicating that it is enjoyable and pleasurable merely to observe it. On the other hand something or someone that is alledged to be beautiful can sometimes be called a beauty as in "this little beauty right here" or "Wow! She's a real beauty!"

The term "mysterious beauty" is more likely to be describing a person as a beauty who is also (independently) mysterious for some reason in addition to being easy on the eyes. It is not likely to be bringing up a type of beauty that is enigmatic in nature.

So is Bomshell an ominous woman is who is beautiful or does one look at her and see that she is beautiful but in an ominous way(like an engraved an highly ornamented firearm or a jewel studded sword that look nice but were created to kill people).

I dunno.

That's a plausible explanation, but unfortunately, it has nothing to do with what J-Bolt was trying to say.

I spoke to him on the phone about it a while back, and he tried in his awkward and inarticulate way to explain the phrase. In his words (or a reasonable paraphrase from memory) "have you ever seen somebody so beautiful that it's ...ominous. Like JonBenet Ramsey; you look at her and go 'whoa!' it's bizarre how beautiful she was for somebody so young, like it's unnatural or something, like she's beyond human. It's ominous."

He thinks ominous means startling, uncanny, unnatural, incredible. No matter how many ways you try to explain to him about the connection between 'ominous' and 'omen,' he does not get it. Precise use of language is not among his gifts.

Ah. He meant an inhuman or unearthly beauty then. (Though JohnBenet Ramsey was obviously in a weird family who had her taking disturbingly adult glamor photos in full make up at the age of five... yick!)

I dimly remember being forced to read excerpts of a translated German saga that said that a guy had a "fate carved brow" "fate folded brow" or "fate worn brow" every other stanza until somebody spears or other spears him. I know that it's not very "saga like" or poetic to be direct but I'd always wished that the writer had just come out and said that the guy looked tired grim and worried all the time and left it at that.

Honor students only get mocked if they are unattractive or lacking in social skills. There's no way anybody would have put that girl down. She would have been prom queen and captain of the chess team. It's a contrived cliche of a story and it just flat doesn't work.

In J-Bolts world she was mocked and put down because she was a success. You pretty much nailed a point I made 2 pages back about reading that. If she was ugly and had no social skills then yeah...It would fit the charactor to want revenge on men In a way.

Questions:
I have a question for you.

Well, actually I have lots of questions for you, but I know you’re busy so I’ll keep it short!!!

1. As a kid, what did you want to be when you grow up?

2. What’s the worst thing you’ve ever done?

3. Would you ever consider collaborating with a fellow creator on a book? Like McFarlane, Millar, Donovan, Streisand, etc?

4. Who are your favorite creators?

5. How much money do you make?

Also, I’d love to see a comic about your life be made. You ever thought about doing one? Thanks!!! I love your work!!!

Crowley

04-26-2005, 12:22 AM

J-Bolt Answers:
Some very good questions, here.
1. Even though I fell in love with comics, at the age of 3, I actually started to think I wanted to be a Fireman, not realizing that I was drawing/painting that fantasy scenario everytime. By the age of 5, I realized what I wanted to do and generalized my desires to become an artist. By the age of 10, I decided to narrow that down by specializing in becoming a cartoonist. At the age of 14, I wanted to take on the challenges of doing the more detailed work and addded that I wanted to beomce a cartoonist and comic book artist. At the age of 16, I realized how much of a cut-throat World it is for a comic book artist, since I saw other artists constantly have their work's credit being taken by the publishers, and even had my own experience of a famous creator taking one of my character designs (when I didn't know that it was copyright via publishing in a school newspaper), so I formed Lightning Bolt Comics with the intent on publishing myself. I always had, in the back of my mind, about writing/producing movies but I didn't realize that I had it in me to do so yet and, when the BombShell movie project fell into my lap, in 1999, I ended up becoming a Producer, way ahead of schedule, then realized that it was in me easily since, throughout my childhood, the way I played with my toys is the same way a director plots out a storyline (looking at the toys as if it were through a camera view, humming "theme songs" as I was pretending that my toys were enacting scenes from other episodes while beginning and ending credits were going, etc.) and even realized that I always watched movies & TV shows, doing everything I could to figure out how the special effects were done on top of educating myself on them of the information I couldn't figure out. The teaching came about, in the late '80's, because I wanted to teach other artists/creators what I knew as well as how to protect themselves from anyoneorthing I've ever donewould have a tie in that I start smoking cigarettes at the age of 17, and marrying my second wife within only a few months of dating, not finding enough out about her to know the real her.

2.Professionally, I can't think of any "worst thing" except for during the times I had to work for other people, while getting my company going, which ended up in me injuring my back.

3. I would love collaberating on a book with other creators (that I like their style), and I'm anxious for the first crossovers with another publisher.

4. My favorite creators are John Byrne, Neal Adams and Alex Ross. There are others, but those are the first that come to my mind. I love realistic-style creators, though I get rather upset when John Byrne downplays comic book artists as cartoonists (there is a distinct difference) and the industry in general.

5. This one, I'm not at liberty to say. For one reason, I'm not only paid by my company for my individual roles in it, but I also receive commissions from my company, and the like, which makes giving an exact figure rather difficult. The other reason is that this sort of question is rather personal, if you know what I mean.

Your last question: actually, if I ever do end up doing an autobiography, I've always thought that the best concept in doing so would be to make it a graphic novel, as it would be unique, as opposed to just writing a book about it.
Thanks for the questions,
J-

Gail Simone

04-26-2005, 02:22 AM

You know, the truth is, John is not like that, not racist or sexist, I mean. I've talked with him about this stuff, and he genuinely, deeply, LOATHES that kind of thing, and has plenty of ammo to back it up. The sexism he's witnessed at various companies over the years so clearly sticks in his craw that it's hard to deny. I mean, he's palpably pissed about it, and wants to do things about it.

On top of that, he's got a genuinely funny sense of humor. People so badly want to see us not get along, it's just a bit weird to me. I'm not going to agree with everything he says, and I'm no one's apologist, but I do think he's not the guy he's been painted as. I didn't like the hair comment about Jessica Alba, but it's hard for me to be objective because I've done some damn fine looking color corrections on non-Caucasians. ;)

But yeah, far as I can see, there's a whole lot about John that doesn't show up on message boards. And I frickin' LOVE the way he draws Superman. So far, he's been GREAT to work with, and that's the truth. Sorry to disappoint.

My take on it is that Bombshell was severely abused as a child by a close relative who insisted on calling her beautiful and dumb. As a result, she grew up with a pathological hatred for people who manifested any physical attraction to her, or even seemed oblivious to the fact that she was actually pretty smart. At the same time, she courts attention by dressing in brightly colored and skintight bathing suits. She blows crap up to exact revenge from the entire world, because she's stuck at the emotional age of a hurt five year old. She's basically throwing super-powered tantrums.

(But you know, I doubt that's what J-Bolt intended with the character).

John Bryne's Superman was the 1st real comic I ever bought as a fan. He just knew how to do the charactor then. He pretty much took him from a relaunched Idea to the masses. I'm so gonna get the arc now due to the fact that Gail will be writing and John will be doing art.

But lets be serious. J-Bolt can try to be like John Bryne. He can do zany quotes where he tells people that Firemen aren't heroes. Or his views on homosexuals. But til he actually gets off his ass and produces work , he's just like a friend of mine has said after showing her his " work ".

more from the Bolt:
I've been itching to bring this subject/question up to everyone...
Esepecially when writing posts, I tend to just write, as opposed to plotting out what it is that I'm about to write. When I write, I type approximately 70 words per minute (which explains why I have a tendency to normally misspell words that phonetically sound like they make sense). I've received numerous notoriety for my writing and was in journalism, not to mention the highest composition classes, in Junior High and High School, all resulting in A's and B's as my grades (with exception of one paper I wrote that I mistakingly did so as Creative writing instead of a simple Composition assignment [my only 'F']. I've never claimed to receive awards... but I did get a few certificates for composition competitions in school, if that counts.
Since I don't plot out what I'm going to say, and just respond with my speed-typing, in these posts, I need to ask: Other than my sometimes overzealous use of comma's, is everyone able to easily understand what it is I'm saying? Do I sound like an idiot when I write, as the bashers so frequently make it a point to describe my writing? Do my words reflect as an educated writer, or do they make you feel that I'm a novice in the writing field? Again, keep in mind that, in these posts, I'm just writing as if I were speaking off the cuff.
Now, when I'm professionally writing, I obviously have a pertinent editor to check my work, looking for typos, the overzealous commas, sentence structure, run-on sentences, etc., so that my end-product comes out perfectly, from more than one opinionated editor. I take a great deal of pride in what I do professionally and make sure that such a things shows adequately.
When I post, I'm just talking without the need for an editor because I wouldn't have an editor at my side when I'm in a normal conversation with friends, having a drink and BS'ing back and forth.
When I'm conducting a press release, depending on who it goes to, I hype the subject that I'm writing about, without lying about it. Why hype? Because that's what this industry is al about, and I have no problem with going along with that successful formula. Once again, I never lie about what I'm saying. Do I sensationalize? Sometimes, if it's appropriate for what I'm promoting... but I never lie. In this industry, you have to hype to gain the viewers' interests. If I were to just say "uh... I'm doing a movie based on my BombShell character" and leave it at that, what kind of interest would you have to see it, when it comes out? Very little to none. This is the same reason that we over-dramatize poses in a comic book: if Thor were to through his hammer like a normal person, it would look boring as Hell... but if the cocking/throwing with his arm is over-dramatized, it appears more exciting to see it drawn. Right?
In posting, which is the Online equivalent of a social gathering, I just talk. I find no need in looking up a word in a dictionary everytime I use a possibly nefarious word.
When Stewart Raffill, a long time professional in the fim industry, read the original BombShell script (before Jackson and I decided for me to add Marinna in the re-write), he was so thrilled with the project and how I wrote it, that he originally thought it was an animation, based on how detailed and distinct it was, and I informed him that it wasn't anaimation: it was live-action. He gladly took it on because of my writing style and how my scriptwriting resembled that of a director's. As a result, he signed an LOC to direct and be Co-Executive Producer, giving me permission to use him name for anything needed.
On the same note, those that are, or have been, in the cast couldn't put the script down because they were enthralled in what they were reading. They, too, felt that this film will do great things once it hits the theaters (that's not me saying it... that was the overall opinion of everyone who read it).
Now, I ask every one of you... do you feel that I have any pertinent weaknesses in my writing abilities? I hope to hear a response from each and every one of you.
Thank you for your "helpful hint," Princetonguy, but the hint you give is the consensus of the bash forums: a group of people who hate me and what I stand for. The only words I take heed in is those from the people that are at least open-minded to what I do.
I'll start a poll as to how everyone feels my writing style is. Maybe that'll help you be more open-minded to the opinions of those whom are most imporatnt: the readers.

J-Bolt, Inventor
Actually, I'll correct the implecation, here...
I've been nominated to also be inducted in the 2006 (60th Edition) of the Marquis' Who's Who In America because I invented a special hydro/cooling system, when I designed Marinna's costume for the BombShell movie: one that is less cumbersome and extremely comfortable in controlling an actor/actress' body temperature when they have to wear strangling outfits for movies, TV shows, etc. (I felt so sorry for what John Wesley Shipp had to go through in "The Flash"), as opposed to what they used to have to do. This being wear a whole body water suit and every hour they had to take off the whole costume and the water suit to change its teperature before putting it all back on. My design makes this undue effort obsolete and much more comfortable.
With that in mind, it was found that my design had more practical and commercial possibilities involving anyone who has to work in inclimate conditions such as space travel, desert exploration, arctic research, etc.
Does that clarify things for you?

on Bashers:
I don't worry about the bashers' sites because they bore me. I just get riled when they bring their Nazi-styles onto my turf. When something needs to be brought to my attention, these Folks do so, and I give them the truth behind the lies. So, thank you for that offer... but no thank you. I have no need to go where I'm outnumbered by a group whose only goal is to make me fail, albeit unsuccessfully.
I have my opinions about who is corrupt and who is not. And I've found that the idealists who are/were not corrupt will be done so by their leaders, if they're to survive in their chosen field.
As for the link, go to the Las Vegas Review-Journal's website lvrj.com and look in ther story archives. Look in the time period of July - August 2004 for a house that was in the area of E Sahara and Pecos-McCleod. As I've said before, you'll get the news agencies/firemen's version of the story, not the truth.
My name was not mentioned in the stories because I did not have my mask or gear with me, so I made sure to stay off camera as much as possible, so the most you'll see of me, in the pictures is a tall, long-haired guy with his back turned to the cameras. Afterwards, at my home and office, I was calling the news agencies to arrange an interview for the truth to be given and I was even brushed off to protect the guilty.

As my avatar hints, I am considering changing my name to K-Bolt and starting my own imaginary entertainment company. I'm going to start with my very own comic book Bombshelter, the exciting adventures of a 45-year-old concrete bunker. This dynamic concept has already been snatched up by Hollywood legend Jon Houston and will star Burt Ward, Al Molinari and some lady wrestler who isn't named Sable. It's gonna win Oscars, you watch! I have another comic book about a funny-animal rapper called Dawgg but nobody wants to make it into a movie. Philadelphistines. Anyway, soon I will be rolling in imaginary women bought with my imaginary money and policemen will let me shoot innocent passersby with their guns! I can hardly wait!!!

Ok, at the J-Bolted site, he said to look for a news report about him, hoses, firemen and elderly people.

Or how corrupt the fire dept is while dealing with fires. And how he saw the callous attitude of the firemen and because he was without his mask and gear, he was unable to do anything.

Well, the only fire reported on that site, from that timeframe is

By SEAN WHALEY

REVIEW-JOURNAL CAPITAL BUREAU

CARSON CITY -- A massive, out-of-control wildfire that burned eight homes to the ground in Carson City on Wednesday took at least another 12 homes Thursday, and many more remained in peril.

Fire officials confirmed their worst fears were realized when the fire, which had moved into the high Sierra earlier in Thursday, blew back down into residential areas of western Carson City when afternoon winds shifted to the east.

No major injuries

Yes. But there are no pictures stored in the site.

Omar...
I can't thank you enough for your assistance to me on that forum. You are truly a gentleman and a friend. Just be wary... Simone has said before that she's done with bothering me... but she always comes back for more.

I have not gone to read the bash forums in sooooooo long, because I got sick and tired of being ridiculed, called a liar, and having my words twisted any way they could. I didn't want that negativity anymore. So, they brought their fight to my turf.

Superecwfan1...
I read that entire page of posts and am amazed at something, more or less: all along this forum, you claimed not to be one of the bashers. Yet, as I read your posts, you did exactly the same thing that the other bashers have done all along. You have been a mole on this site/forum. Everytime I've said something (all of which being the truth), you took it back to the bash forums, twisted my words to be things I didn't say, and mocked them profusely. Just as bad as your cronies have done, you bashed me in a vicious witch-hunt. And yet, all this time, you kept claiming that you're not one of them, when in fact you're exactly like the rest of them.
If you have any further posts on this forum, do not expect any kind of answer from me, or even an acknowledgement that you exist. As much as they are, you are slime, and you have not only tried to deceive me, but you fooled everyone else here into thinking that you were being honest with us.
If anyone feels the need to question this, go to Omar's first link and read that whole page. You'll see his posts and find that I'm actually being reserved in my disgust towards what this inhuman person has done. He infiltrated this site/forums, and took everything back to his basher-buddies to twist it into things that I never said.
Why, SuperEcwFan1? Does this make you feel like a big man to all of them? Does it help you sleep at night? What was your motivation behind this charade and lies that you fed all of us? Don't bother answering my rhetorical questions because nothing you say has any value anymore.
I had my doubts about you, but I gave you the benefit of the doubt, because I didn't want any further wars here. You took all our trust and spat in our faces. I hope you're proud of yourself for this ridiculous game because the only thing you accomplished was distrust amongst everyone here.

Admins...
I would like to make a formal request, please. In light of the evidence behind SuperEcwFan1's deceit to everyone here, including all of you, I'd like to request that this individual be banned from this site/forums because this blatant disregard for everyone here, and what everyone stands for, is absolutely unforgivable. And, after reading what this person wrote on those bash forums, I'd like to know if my request has the support of everyone else involved with this forum, who is who they say they are.
Is it any wonder as to why I had those previous outburts, now? Any posts I made, that insulted Simone and MacQuarrie were edited or deleted... yet, this thing said/did what he did and nobody did anything about it. Now, I have to be wary about what I say on here, again, wondering when the next mole will show themselves. Do you realize how uncomfortable that is, for me (and probably everyone else who wants to ask more in-depth questions to me)?

I made my first post at Jbolted. I thought I would ask why the hard copies that were offered at the beginning of the year were never available. He seems to have attacked me pretty harshly when I was beign relatively polite.

I posted the offer from his site, and I asked why they were not available. He then made the accusation that I was banned several times, and kept coming back from different IP addresses.

I'm glad to hear that the site was locked. I thought that I had been banned after my first post.

We offered the black & white version of the comic, through our online store, but no orders were placed because we received feedback that everyone wants to wait for the full-color version. If we get requests for the black & white, with color cover, then we'll get it together for those who want it.
And yes, you were banned several times, but you just kept popping up again under different IP addresses. You're a known basher and we gave you plenty of opportunities to straighten your act up, on my company site's forum... but, you never did. To demonstrate your inability to be a normal person, instead of a bashing-lemming, you've come here to throw in your venom, after reading the garbage from the bash forums, wanting to take part in the charade.

From now, until 12/31/04, we're taking a poll on how much we should charge for this Special Edition comic with a FULL COLOR cover and black & white interior. All you need to do is to give your poll answer below as to how much we should charge above our BASE price, and we'll have it available as of 1/1/05. IT'S THAT SIMPLE!

There was never any retraction of the date of 1/1/05, so I was wondering why you said there were never any hard copies of When Lightling Strikes #0. Could you clear that up?

By the way, for full disclosure, I have posted at the CBR forums, and once I was threatened with a banning at the old Jbolt forums, but I have never been banned.

I've looked at his forums and they all seem to worship the toilet he shits in. What's so good about this guy (or so bad I should say)? I can't seem to find any of his comics on or offline and his previews are for paying members of his site only. If you ask me, that's enough to piss anybody off. Having to pay for a preview?

Dr. Flem, and all,

I am somewhat new to the "J-Bolt Goodness", having only stumbled upon him in late January 2005. However, your assesment of his, fecal matter, appears to be quite correct. I'm sure that I am now numbered as one of, "the bashers", but I have tried to engage him in meaningful conversation on the old IMDB comment board for "Bombshell". (Contrary to his weak explanation, I think it was taken down for his own psychotic rantings.)

Although he always, (much moreso than he claims "we" do against him), bashes "us", we have always been prepared and ready to accept if he actually did something. Hell, if he had a movie premier, (beyond his living room with an 8mm print), I would plan to fly out to Cali, or Pahrump NV and join Gail and Mac at the showing. I think we're all "big enough" to say..."Hey I guess we were wrong....way to freakin' go!!!!"

Still, his "proof" is unsubstantiated and weak at best. He is revelling in his new home on Jbolted due to the fact he doesn't really have to face facts.

Yes, I did sign up for the board on Jbolted, and started writing horrendously written and stupid "supporting" posts. (Which seemed to be eaten up like Ashlee Simpson fans denying her Orange Bowl appearance.....yes I was at the Orange Bowl, and at best she sucked big, fat, veiny DONKEY BALLS!!) I then put up a post or two, not bashing, but putting out the truth and questions. I think they were up there until Bolty got out of the mental hospital and started posting again. Suddenly, my retardedly supportive posts are still there, but my serious ones are not. I'm still not kicked off of the board, but I guess my real, factual and justified questions are not welcomed.

O.K. Last stanza of my rant. Just, at least for shitz and giggles, maybe we should start to post on the comment section of his IMDB bio page. This is the "basher" board. JBolted is the defrauded, dipshit board. So, maybe we can bring the "J-Bolt Goodness" in it's full, unadulterated pleasure to a more neutral forum. Just a thought.

Oh, and as a previous JBolted copied post said....he's gone from the "Mono Blade" to a more come "Bi-lensd" "mask". Well, Bolty, wouldn't that confuse the HELL out of your 3 or 4 J-Bolt minions?!?!?!?! Please don't wear that in the movie of "BOMBshell" It would confuse the HELL out of 1, or maybe 2 people. Just sayin'.............

As always, I remain your most humble servant,

Wingnut!!!! :cool:

P.S. On a much earlier post we were clued in to see who owned the "Lightning Bolt Entertainment" website. I got the clue, and did the research. It was owned by..............wait for it............."Jim Fisher". For the hell of it, I checked again about a week ago. It's now registered to a, "Bolt, J" Oh, did his little "journalist" friend start the site, and then turned it over / sold it to Bolty?!?!?! I think not. He doesn't see how being as "smart as he is", that even common people, (with more intelligence than he could even dream about having), can see through his crap. He should be pitied. And I do, "PITY THE FOOL". (Please, Bolty, put Mr. T in "BOMBshell"!!!!!!) . I'm not one to go to Comicons and such....but I would travel to the ends of the Earth to find a booth that is a repository of the, "J-Bolt Goodness".

O.k. I'm done now........."And this time, I mean it...."

I've debated on whether or not to post my thoughts on the latest J-bolt developments. But after reading about the revelation of the true nature of jbolted.com, I feel I should weigh in.

First off, please don't think I'm judging anyone here. I even made a snide comment or two early on in this thread myself. And I've rabidly lurked (if one can do such a thing) through most of the J-bolt threads here, at IMDB, and Jbolted. So I'm certainly not attempting to take some high moral ground here.

That being said, I really think Michael Gallaher's post concerning J-bolt should be given more credence. Despite what J-bolt may have done as far as defrauding people, or spreading lies, or making wild boasts, a joke of this nature could really set him off. And if you aren't concerned about J-bolt's well-being, just realize that Mac and Gail have been the focus of his frustration and anger these past few years. He knows Mac's address, and Gail is readily accessable at any number of conventions. If he really loses it, they could be in danger.

Like I said, I'm not judging anyone. I don't think you're bad people for doing this. But I do feel that continuing to interact with J-bolt in this manner could prove to have tragic consequences. Words can be very powerful. They can move people to do wonderful things. And they can send people spiralling into the darkest pit.

Please, don't take my own words as a condemnation. I'm just voicing my concern.

All my best.

Not me. I did a whois search. I knew who was behind it all along, and I *still* went and played for a little bit. ;)

Yep. I was RedHeadBombshell for a few brief posts. When he started flirting with me, I didn't have the heart or *stomach* to continue. Could have been amusing, but I don't relish puking my guts up on a daily basis, and I really ain't *THAT* mean.

I've weighed through a lot of material over the last couple of days of putting J-Bolt Mania together. I've watched the patterns and read the subtext. At worst, IMO, he has delusions of granduer. I have seen a lot of manipulative patterns and to me that suggests that he is not schizophrenic, although I am not a mental health professional.

To demonstrate -

J-Bolt: I'm the King of Norway!

Random person: You are not the King of Norway.

J-Bolt: Yes I am and I can prove it, call this person and they'll tell you all about it.

Random Person: No, King Harald V is King of Norway.

J-Bolt: I never said I was King of Norway. Mac said that, he's a basher, he hates me. Oh pity poor me.

Random Person: You said it, it's right there, look.

J-Bolt: NO I DID NOT! It's MacQuirky using my name to post!

MacQuarrie: I am not impersonating you, J-Bolt. You said it.

J-Bolt: There he is the ringleader of all the bashers, do you see how he talks to me? Pity poor J-Bolt.

Random Person: No one feels sorry for you. You lied.

J-Bolt: {Insert childish and belligerent rant here}

He's not sick, he's a spoiled child throwing a tantrum at Gail's bithday party.

my final PM to J-Bolt:
J-Dolt,

a final note from you're #1 fan.

We're not fans of yours... instead this entire board has been made up of so called "bashers." Including me, your #1 fan.

In fact the only one not in on the joke was Omar... which makes it even funnier.

Also Ginger is pretend... try www.GettyImages.com and look under Bikini Women. Of course to meet your requirements I photoshopped her chest to epic proportions. Sorry pal... no audition, no real woman.

and the Captain Planet gag... me.

Oh and this is the other mystery woman you've been looking for... Do a Google search for MULLET WIGS!

At first we thought we'd have a laugh at your expense but now your spun out and become crazier and crazier and now we're moved well past the amusement and eventual disgust into sadness for you that you seem to be getting a bit... nuts.

We all sincerely hope you well in your endeavors and hope you continue as we enjoy pointing and laughing.

PS. I plan on doing a parody of the J Dolt saga, Steven Spielberg (Spielberg is spelled with an "E' by the way) just bought the rights. The movie will start with 'Sunglasses at Night" by Corey Hart and end with Journey's "Don't Stop Believin!"

05-01-2005, 03:08 PM

My 2 cents on the matter:

I must say that I'm greatly impressed by the level of committment shown by our jbolted deception squad. Brilliantly executed, and although reading some of the past pages on this very thread does make its forgery far more apparent, I was completely convinced. Still, I admit I am a bit concerned about this. From what I've seen from imdb archives and from info on this thread, J-Bolt was going crazy on the defensive when the "fan site" was created, and fled to it as a form of refuge. Looking at the jbolted message boards, it seems that even there he was slowly becoming more and more paranoid and desperate. This 'massive betrayal,' I believe, could become very, very ugly. The way I see it, there's a couple of possibilities:

1) J-Bolt simply vanishes for a long duration. I feel this is the most obvious possibility, for several reasons. For starters, he has vanished in the past, and due to far lesser insults than this. I'm not quite sure why he does this. If he's actually mentally ill, then it could be that he goes through some sort of depressive state, only to come back with even crazier statements and even more nutty and unshakeable conviction. This would indeed follow his style of behavior. Or perhaps he just leaves to let things cool down or to try and come up with some other excuse to peddle his garbage. I'm not sure. If he does indeed vanish this time, I think he will quite likely fade into obscurity for real this time. After all, who can he trust? And where will he be able to post? Imdb is lost to him, as is jbolted, and lightning bolt entertainment's web page is a joke.

2) J-Bolt blames this latest gag on MacQuarrie and Gail, just like all the others, and likely finds another place to peddle his crap. He continues on like he always has

3) He concedes defeat, apologises, and goes away. (Unlikely)

4) He finally snaps, and hurts himself or someone else.

It's the last one that scares me the most. But what's done is done, and even if those who posted their beliefs about Bolt's fragile mental state are correct, I don't think an event such as this could have been prevented. I think that one way or another, the J-Bolt saga is about to come to an end, and I must admit I feel slightly dirty when I say that I'm still eagerly anticipating seeing how it all turns out.

Crowley

05-01-2005, 03:35 PM

can I just say that part of the whole reason we decided to wrap this up was due the supposition of mental problem by MW Gallagher and while that's definitely a possibilty... I don't really think it's possible to diagnose a mental condition online.

I'd also like to point out that until the end J-bolt was wanting to screw people out of money

I see J-Dolt's back-tracking and screaming and ignoring of the facts as someone who is (figuratively AND literally) sticking his fingers in his ears and yelling "LALALALALALALALALALALALALALALA! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!! LALALALALALALALALALALALALALALALAAAAAAA!" Also, there is the fact that he *actively* tried to get *anyone* banned who even *mildly* questioned him.

And, to me at least, that points to "con man" rather than "disturbed".

Like Emperor said, it's kind of hard to diagnose someone from their postings on messages boards and e-mails. This is a guy that is quite well known for wearing "the mask" and I really doubt this is how he is in his real life. At least that's what I hope. Like everyone else that was involved in this, we did not do this because we wanted to mess with someone with mental issues. We all thought of him as nothing more than a liar and failed con man. His obscene comments about Gail and others at the IMDB board was the last straw.

SK, you may have driven J-Bolt mad, but you've driven me sane. The most frustrating thing about dealing with the clown was never being able to checkmate him; I could always come up with enough evidence to convince a rational person, but there was always enough wiggle room left for him to dodge the bullet. I could never come up with anything that would slam the door and nail it shut on him.

You did. That copyright registration seals the deal. It's there for everyone to see. Incontrovertible proof that Jim "J-Bolt" Fisher is in fact a liar.

Come on. This is catharsis. I've been vindicated. There it is, all the proof I've been lacking. Finally, a concrete refutation of every lie, empirical evidence that everything he's said is exactly what I've claimed all along, pure unadulterated B.S.

Aren't I entitled to rejoice a little? The walls have tumbled. The clouds have at last parted. A cry goes up across the land as the the much-slandered "bashers" rise up with a hearty cry of "told ya so!"

Dammit, I earned this. That guy has called me every ugly thing he can think of, and idiots like Omar took him at his word and joined in his attacks. Now it's over and the good guys won. J-Bolt is no better than a Nigerian scammer and we have him dead to rights at last.

I'm not gloating. Really. I'm just so damn relieved. You have no idea how many times I've argued with myself, doubted myself, questioned my own intelligence over this. I've gone back and forth, trying to give J-Bolt the benefit of the doubt, second-guessing whether he really was telling the truth or not. Now we know that his range of honesty goes from tortured half-truth to bald-faced lie.

The thing is, a chronic liar's true gift is his ability to make you question your own senses. "Who are you going to believe, me or your lying eyes?" Many times, I would try to convince myself that the tattered fragments of truth J-Bolt trotted out were in fact proof of everything he said. I couldn't do it. I couldn't buy into his fictions, but I couldn't prove they weren't true. It was maddening. More than anything else, it was that glimmer of uncertainty that kept me hounding him like Javert.

I know! Isn't that Awesome?! I WANT that on a T-shirt. Printed upside down if possible.

And this isn't in the weird context of the Back Door Deal that J-bolt was freaking out about to hype the bombshell "script" either. I mean I would pay J-bolt a reasonable price for a quality XL T-shirt(a silk screen on Hanes Beefy-T...at least) of Demon Dawn if I could be sure that I could depend on him to have them made and ship them to me.

Because it's brilliant in it's own way and I want it. And I want nine more characters in the same vein as Demon Dawn drawn and put in a repeating pattern on some nice high thread count cotton weave and I want a set of pyjamas made from this! Why? Why did DuChampe make an iron with spikes on it?

Of course I could just download the thing and HAVE it made myself right now but that would not teach J-bolt a valuable lesson about our economy and success via honest trade so I won't.

Heck maybe he could sell a deck of playing cards with drawings of super villain/hero interpretations of people that he likes and hates printed on the back? I mean he can come up with some weird and therefore minimally borderline interesting stuff. Why is he wasting his time with this retarded Bombshell movie fantasy rot? This is kind of tragic.

He's got a wonderful(if embarrassing) story to tell here all he has to do is write it down and it's practically a low budget art house movie that could replace Napolean Dynamite! All it takes is a capacity to laugh at his mis steps and goofiness and move on! He could be the next Ozzy Osbourne/Bill Shatner!

Sheesh!

I still think he's more sleazy than crazy at this point. I think this was a casting couch scam that never got off the ground(as far as we mercifully know).

Especially after he began to post on a regular basis, I couldn't stomach it much more, and began to figure maybe there were some poor suckers that believed him. I guess I was just a poor sucker for thinking he had found a "home". (I'm glad I was wrong!)

Did anybody archive that horrific post from the Jenny McCarthy forum at IMDb? The one where J-Bolt viciously attacked her agent for telling her not to play Bombshell?

That really needs to be preserved for posterity.
No, but thanks for reminding me. :D

EDIT: Hmmmm, I can't find it. However I did find a lot of deleted posts.
I couldn't find the page archived by IMDB, but the text from Jenny McCarthy's and Amy Jo Johnson's forums are on this thread. Page 45, posts 661 (http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showpost.php?p=1001015&postcount=661) and 662 (http://forums.comicbookresources.com/showpost.php?p=1001034&postcount=662).

I'll be contacting our company's web host to find out why we're having so much problem
with the @lightningboltentertainment e-mails, meanwhile, you know where you can reach me.
Just keep using lboltentertainment@sbcglobal.net and it'll be filtered straight through
to me.
I was reading and you didn't send me your phone number, so that I could call you in
person. I want to make a deal, privately, with you, which I'm sure you might like the
idea because I'll give you all the scoops and everything involved, as a result...more or
less, I'll be making you the QUEEN of my fan clubs. If you can send that back to me ASAP,
I won't delay in calling you right back.
I give you permission to use anything on the site (though, right now, it's being re-done,
as I'm sure you've noticed), but wait on the BombShell #1 cover, for now. The reason
being is that if you look at the lower-left-hand corner of the cover, you see the flaming
photo album. One of those pictures is of Rena Mero, when she was going to be playing
BombShell. I'm having all the copies of that cover RE-done, so that Samantha Fox's
picture replaces Rena's. So, wait on that for a while, if you don't mind, and I'll send
you the first copy of the renewed cover ASAP before it goes on the site. Meanwhile, I'm
attaching a close-up picture of Sam, that will be edited into that space (along with most
of the publicity having to do with the film), so that you can see why she's the perfect
BombShell, and I wish I would've thought of her before I had talked to any other actress
before.
I don't know much about you, and hope that you'll tell me more about you, when you send
me that phone number, so that I have an idea of who I'm talking to. I like being close
with my fans and have NEVER turned any of them down for almost anything. But I like
knowing about my biggest fans.
The girl that ran the Lightning Bolt Comics fan club, in Japan, was so crushed when I got
married, in 2001, she hasn't talked with me since, but I'm sure she'd be thrilled to know
that I'm in the middle of the divorce from that woman...and have even turned my
soon-to-be ex into a character named DemonDawn, that will actually, eventually, take over
Hades (I'm sending you THAT picture as well (THERE is a MAJOR sneak-preview for you,
since nobody has heard of that yet, except for the soon-to-be ex... it was a GREAT
reaction). This is only for you, though, at least until we talk in person.
We'll go over more about her in the interviews and chats.
MacQuarrie has tried to suggest that I use a PHP-based forum for my site, but I don't
trust anything about him, or what he says. If you have a copy/instructions on your
PHP-based forum, may I have a copy to use on the new Lightning Bolt Entertainment site?
From you, I'll trust it and saves my web design team from looking for just what I want
for the site.
Let me give you some MUCH-needed info about MacQuarrie: he's been a stalker of me and my
companies/projects for a few years now. If you allow him on your site, I GUARANTEE that
he will do everything in his power to tear it down, along with all your members. My
advice: get him out now because he's like a cancer that keeps spreading his poison. I
have stalking charges against him because his attorney-friend got him my home address and
phone number, he's threatened me more times than I can begin to mention, and EVERY single
person that joins the cast/crew of the BombShell project gets contacted by him, and he
tries to scare them off the project. He's known for using fake names, genders, etc. in
order to infiltrate anything/anyone who is connected with me, etc. Why? Because he and
his cronies are either employed by and/or connected with DC, Marvel and other of my
competition companies. They were absolutely OUTDONE that Comicon dedicated an entire
webpage to the "Storm" poster, in 1999, stating that it was a better product than
anything ever put out by DC, Marvel or anyone else, as far as they can see. This lit the
fire for MacQuarrie and his ilk. So, the best thing is to get rid of the cancer before it
becomes malignant and they become a stalker to you and your followers as well. Before
they came around, my former URL had an average of 5,000 hits per day. Now, I'm lucky if I
can get 200 per day, because all they do is start fights, lies... and that's NOT what I
allow my companies' to promote. I do believe, my Sweet, that you can help me get those
numbers back up, and you'll have my full cooperation in accomplishing that.
In short, MacQuarrie makes himself out to be a friend, more or less, to slither inside
the group, then he'll DESTROY that group. I've had 5 years experience with him, Gail
Simone and their other ilk and will be more than happy to share whatever you need, with
you. We just have to be careful...because of that ILK. Get him and his cronies out while
you can, otherwise, you won't be able to get rid of them.
Gail Simone has a tendency to behave, many times, but try to get her to admit wanting to
work for me, as a writer, even though she has an exclusive contract with DC, and you'll
have her right where you want her... keeping her at bay.
I'm having new publicity photos taken with my new "mask," so I'll get them to you one
they are done, so you can judge for yourself, which one(s) you want to use. Once I shoot
them. I'll let you know.
Why would you need time to prepare for an interview with me? Most of the best interviews
ever done on me were "off-the-cuff," as it were. They became fun, then. When we can talk
in person, we can go over some subjects that you'd want to talk about along with my
suggestions, if you don't mind. Two things I don't talk about is religion and politics.
Other than that, I'm pretty much open (except that I don't reveal my real name/face for
privacy purposes).
Many people have tried to catch me without the mask, but, without them, I just look like
any tall, long-haired guy who wears a leather jacket, long hair, an earring (my teenager
finally talked me into that last year, saying that I needed to catch up with the times),
and motor cycle boots. I'm a t-shirt/jeans kinda' guy, which blends me in with every John
Doe on the street, when I don't have J-Bolt gear on.
I have fans all over the World, and I was so thrilled to death that toy_chick came to my
aid on IMDb, because I got tired of being the only one to defend myself. If you wouldn't
mind me asking you the favor, tell EVERY other fan, of mine, in your circle to do the
same. If we out-number them, eventually, they'll drop off like flies. And don't worry
about them shooting you down, as is their practice to do. Just remember... you're
fighting a battle of wits with un-armed people.
As soon as my company's website is fully back up and running, I'm sure you have members
all over the Country, maybe even the World, as well. Why not have them write to their
local and Natinal press to ask them why they haven't done a story on me recently? For
that matter, ask superherohype.com why they still refuse to list BombShell on their
entourage of movies. They don't even return our messages...but from fans, the story could
be a heackuva lot different, in results. Just wait until we have the new website back
together. You, literally, will be the first to have it announced to.
I promise that I will be going back to your site and trying out your J-Bolt Q&A
(hopefully, easy to find) and the forums again... and I never break my promises.
Please e-mail me back soon with that phone number so that we can talk sooner.
Thanks for everything,
J-Bolt

I've read this entire forum and have been following the career of the esteemed J-Bolt since the Ellis forum days. Only now am I moved to post, upon receiving my order for the LBC mousepad from J-Bolt's Cafe Press store.

All I can say is that this item is definitely of higher quality than anything ever produced by other comic companies. I can definitely understand how it's won so many awards, and has even been rumored as a Consumer's Digest Best Buy.

It features the household name characters Bolt, Wolff, Draco, and The Eliminator, as well as a few others who look, y'know, really interesting and stuff.

I'm looking forward to years of guests at my house asking "What the hell is that?", to which I'll reply "It's better that you not know".

Good news, everyone! (I've been watching WAY too much Futurama.)

The mystery of the word 'Lebian' has finally been solved!

Up to now, lebian was thought to be a made up word or a characteristic misspelling. Here at J-Bolt Mania we have finally uncovered the meaning of the word 'lebian'.

Le-bi-an:
Pronunciation: lee-bee-an
1. - noun - A female writer of fiction with a following of 'ilk', not to be confused with elk or milk.
2. - noun - A female who is able to write, has written something, and has a fan base.
3. - noun - A female writer of fiction whose fanbase frequents basher forums.
4. - adj - Of or pertaining to being a lebian.

And they would have got away with it too if it wasn't for those meddling kids!

Then he didn't use her for a year.

Anyway, we're pretty far off course. This is the J-Bolt thread! Let's save about comics that have actually been published for elsewhere.

I don't really blame him for that. I would not want the details of my divorce, if I had one, discussed in a forum such as this.

That being said, Jbolt really does provide an awful lot of personal information for someone that is so protective of his identity. We know about his divorces, we know about his move from Vegas to the bustling metropolis of Pahrump, we know about his bad back. If he were really trying to keep a secret identity, wouldn't he try to keep some of that to himself?

And once again, I get the feeling that he is trying to live a cliche sitcom rather than life. Does anyone in real life really base villainous characters on ex-wives? Going so far as to name her "DemonDawn" is just plain silly.

Sadly, yes I did know someone who did just that, AND she was shockingly J-Bolt-ish.

I use to know a woman who made claims almost as incredible as J-Bolt. She would claim to be have many different companies. They were primarily software and publishing companies, (or divisions) that produced little or no product. She spent more time coming up with lame acronyms for her companies. Each one spelled out some sort of word. She claimed to be a counsellor, professor, ordained minister, etc. Her websites would have many sections, 99% never had any content, and whose links were continually broken. (Went to pages never produced.) She promised the world, and didn't deliver squat.

Her main thing was that she was a sci-fi / fantasy writer. She had lists of books and series of books, all but one of which were never written. (She sure came up with a lot of titles though!) Her 1 "novel" was a continuing work of around 10 or more years. Basically, the heroine was pitifully, thinly veilled on her fantasy self. The hero and love interest was always based on her current boyfriend / infatuation. The character's name was even derived from the guy's name. (ala J-Bolt's "DemonDawn"?!?!?!) When that guy would see through her charades and scams and move on, she would re-write the entire story to make him the villain. Then another re-write would come when she met her next guy. New guy became the hero, fighting and subduing character based on last guy. The happened OVER, AND, OVER, AND OVER AGAIN.

I wasn't one of these, per se. I did meet her on-line talking about publishing poetry. We began to communicate, where she quickly escalated it to wanting to date, although that wouldn't happen being that she was in PA, and I was in FL. She actually asked me to transfer to a college in PA early on, and I politely laughed it off. She always wanted me to come up, or to pay for her to come down so we could try dating, but I declined, not only due to all the alarms going off, but because I was in college and didn't have the money to be transporting myself or someone else across the country on a whim. Early on I realized she was off the deep end, and decided to try to be her friend. Honestly, over time, talking to her just helped confirm for me that no matter how bad life may seem in the short term, listening to her rantings proved that things could be a hell of alot worse.

We haven't spoken since an argument in 1997. That was a psychotic J-Bolt like rant for another story. I would check out her various websites from time to time for a good laugh. When searching to see if she had come up with any additional ones earlier this year, I found out she had passed away last year at the age of 42. It's too bad...I think J-Bolt would have been her perfect match.
