Comicsgate is the ongoing movement of longtime comics creators who have been marginalized or canceled out of the industry by the cancel pigs.
It's a growing movement and much of the comics reading audience has followed them onto crowdfunding mechanisms. As the mainstream continues to choke itself out and generate less interest in general, the creators they've driven out just went and made their own industry. Like Atlas Shrugged. Screw over the talent, drive them out, they'll start their own companies. Actually it's a lot like how Image Comics started except more malevolence on the part of the industry throwing them out in the first place. It's not a company, it's just people who said "I don't need this abuse or racism, I'm just going to do it on my own." And they're supporting each other socially. It's a decentralized community of creators who the industry thought it killed. Their comics regularly bring in six figures in fundraising and they're creating a new secondary market for collectors. The more popular ones bring in seven digits... but a lot of that goes towards paying for the costs of distribution and production. They're also producing action figures now, too. Try to talk about Comicsgate on reddit, or review Cyberfrog on CBR's forums. Your account will get banned. Comicsartprosecrets on Youtube is where their big evening livestreams happen but they're decentralized so there are hundreds of creators involved. Larry said "Hi, I'm Larry Hama and you're watching comics art pro secrets" on camera to help them advertise and so the earlier poster was suggesting he got massive career backlash for saying that, including blacklisting. (I'm saying I don't think that was what happened though).

Based on what I’m reading about Comicsgate, Larry was fully employed and writing ARAH at IDW when it came about. I think whatever blacklist he was on happened before the IDW era.

How does a theoretical blacklist supposedly compiled by people who were marginalized and ostracized look? "Don't get fired by THESE guys, okay fellas?" Anyway, IDW didn't fire Larry, so there's your answer. Why would they?
