A cyclist I like has a neat Astro Boy pastiche t-shirt for sale on his site, but it looks eerily like a fanart a Japanese fan made for him, and said artist didn't even get a shout-out on the store. >_>
The artist RTed it so presumably they're cool with it (and I know they're not hurting for cash cos they bought a f'n Pinarello bicycle lmao), but I swear, following cyclists is a rough gig. On top of the past doping convictions and incredibly seedy team owners/managers and that a few peeps need a short, quiet talk with a very patient feminist... now I have to deal with fanart theft??? It's like I never left Tumblr XDDD
AND my boy Bardet got DQed at Paris-Nice... then again, he actually apologised for it. Bardet is a good lad.
