(3/8) - 2018-2019 Barrucci provides ongoing support and Dynamite resources to Van Sciver. This aid was provided as comicsgate harassment and attacks on queer/PoC/female comic pros peaked in mid 2018, at a time when most of the industry was disavowing Van Sciver and his followers.
(4/8) - 2019-2020 Barrucci develops relationships with other comicsgate creators and offers Dynamite deals to additional CG personalities because, according to Van Sciver, “Nick enjoyed our work and agreed with what we had to say”.
(5/8) - Barrucci and Van Sciver agree not to publicize the dealings between Dynamite and comicsgate because, per Van Sciver, Barrucci hoped to avoid “SJW attacks”.

(6/8) - 7/17/20, Van Sciver describes Barrucci coming to Van Sciver’s home for one of their regular meetings, this time to discuss pushback Dynamite has received in response to one of their many comicsgate Vampirella variant cover campaigns.
(7/8) - After learning that Barrucci has pulled the comicsgate variant in question, Van Sciver declares that Barrucci “does not have the fortitude to be comicsgate”.
(8/8) - Van Sciver declares his intent to have no new business dealings with Dynamite (though Dynamite is in the middle of a multi-year arrangement to fulfill Van Sciver’s cyberfrog crowdfund campaigns and both parties will likely continue this arrangement).

So there you go.

According to Van Sciver, @DynamiteComics and Nick Barrucci have been involved with comicsgate since at least 2018 and provided support and resources to CG campaigns even as Van Sciver and his followers harassed and attacked Dynamite’s own creators.
