The Eltingville Club

Love 'em or hate 'em, these boys are a part of Zig Forums tradition-- the [as] pilot was a cult classic, and the original comic by Evan Dorkin is a perennial go-to, with its wild characters and iconic stories remaining a favorite amongst storytimes on the board.
Here's a place to discuss the comic itself, would-have-could-have-beens for the pilot, and AUs. Greentexts, fanart, and rule63 concepts welcome as well! We're not here to bait or argue. just to enjoy a great series for all it's worth.

I'd hate to be one to say it but do you guys think The Big Bang Theory would exist in it's current form without The Eltingville club? The Bazinga show feels like a sterile version of the comic

I think Eltingville was far more influential than it'll ever be recgonized for, but funny bazongle
show seems so far removed from the mean spirited, greasy Eltingville aesthetic I'm not sure it can claim i as one of its many influential IPs. Eltingville is a cautionary tale whereas BBT plays the nerdy stereotypes as something moderately inconsequential and aesthetic, and this is why a lot of more "devoted" fandom groups came to despise the superficial facsimile that The Big Bang Theory portrayed.

>love em or hate em
the only reaction is to hate em

Would the boys approve of reading comics online this way, without paying for them?

Seeing as they're shown many times to steal and pirate shit in the comics, I'm sure pirating comics isn't above them by any means

user, there are very recent examples that we love 'em and rape 'em

okay, so whos gonna post her?

Why are there so many underaged kids on twitter who read this? Shouldn’t they be watching anime or some shit instead of having headcanons that Josh is a fag and Jerry has a cunt?

They'd be incredibly hypocritical to do so with all the shoplifting they do. So, yes; almost assuredly.

Post who now?

Did that one shy user who posted about conventions ever find herself a boyfriend? I need to know it’s not too late.

tomboy

Because most of these kids on twitter are whiney self loathing girls who project their fanatsies onto these characters like the worthless fujoshits they are They don't care about the characters themselves or the comic, just that its another angsty teenage boy they can shove their repressed sexualities onto. It's sad.

I just want to save decent fanart, but there’s only one person worth following for it on there, the rest are 17 year olds who probably would jump down my throat for wanting to fuck Pete because he’s underaged at the start and kids these days think you can’t want to fuck anyone who started out as a child.

Good artists have stupid opinions all the time, Twitter just makes it more obvious
Thank god you can just display image posts on profiles and ignore everything else

Man. It sucks that the fandom is so fixated around the pilot— it’s more accessible to younger audiences (especially since “retro” cartoon pilots are really popular right now) and the pilot was so much less abrasive than the comic. Also on the subject of fujos, why do they take characters who are so OBVIOUSLY painfully straight and make them into whinging faggots? I checked the AO3 listings for Eltingville fics are like five of them are gay shit written by some tranny. It’s out of character and weird to make Bill or Josh gay.

You’re right, I just worry about commenting positively on a drawing and getting bitched at.

I need to stop being fucking lazy and write something.

>i need to stop being fucking lazy and write something
PLEASE. It doesn't even have to be smut, I just want some more Eltingville content that isn't pathetic fujo shit. Hell, some ridiculous in-character shenanigans (like some of the greentexts in last threads, cough cough) would be more fun to read than barely-legal assraping.

Right now the only idea I have is for a blind date gone wrong.

Sounds like it has some great potential. Who's the unlucky boy and his date? I'm hoping either Pete or Jerry, the two of them need more content in general.

I was thinking Pete, he's quickly become my favorite.

Fuck, go for it, user. I'm desperate for more eltingville shit.

I'm rooting for her

I'm a bit rusty, but I'll do my best!

I love the comic, but man I watched the pilot the other day and man it did not translate as well, I felt.

When did this happen? The last time I searched the tag anywhere there wasn't much but I check now that you've mentioned it and there's been a total explosion of content (most admittedly poor quality).

How? Why and when?

No clue what's causing it, but it feels like they all practically popped up overnight.

couple of youtube cartoon reviewers mentioned Eltingville in semi recent videos. In small relatively dense communities like obscure cartoons, that shit spreads fast, especially amongst autistic people. Twitter is tumblr 2.0, so there you go

Fucking hell, some of them even admit they haven't read the comics. This is a travesty.

>Eltingville content that isn't pathetic fujo shit
Get with the times, gramps. Fujoshit is IN

what if i want straight content, what if i want to see bill getting his brains fucked out by horny women at a con

But there is only the pilot, how can one episode sustain anything?

They tried to make it less tragic and also Dorkin himself admitted that it was a huge mistake make a fourth of the pilot runtime about the trivia.

Fujos are dedicated, man. I personally don't get it, but they get one whiff of an all male team and they're on it in seconds.

This. I just want more straight Eltingville reverse gangbangs and shit.

Be the change you want to see in the world, user. Write it. Or when the pandemic clears up, you can cosplay Bill at a con and find a horny lady looking to hook up. Cons are great for that, especially if they take place in a hotel.

You misunderstand, user. I already wrote an entire reverse rape doujin about it. I just want more.
