wada sez: Photocomics were rare as part of the Mosaic project; I’m glad to see that the deviantART commenters were surprisingly complimentary towards this one on the whole! I love the little toy soldiers in this one. Cappellozza has used something like Photoshop’s “posterize” effect to reduce the colour depth of the photos, as a faux-illustration affectation. The stars of this comic are all Takara-exclusive characters, using Diaclone colourations of the molds that went on to become Tracks, Skids, and Sideswipe; over the years, almost all the Diaclone colour schemes have been given independent identities. Crosscut and Road Rage are depicted as diplomat and bodyguard respectively, in keeping with their original profiles; they were originally sold as an e-HOBBY exclusive two-pack. Tigertrack, meanwhile, was a magazine mail-away made available about a year later; he doesn’t get much of a showing here.

Triple-I calls out third-party litigation funding

Kevelighan also said that it is “unconscionable” that plaintiffs can further exploit the legal system by “proactively seeking unassociated third parties to finance their lawsuits.” Triple-I’s report – What Is Third-Party Litigation Funding and How Does It Affect Insurance Pricing and Affordability? – cites data from a Swiss Re analysis, which found that over half of the $17 billion in TPLF monies…

Revealed – what’s tearing apart Florida’s homeowners’ insurance market?

It was also noted that while two major hurricanes made landfall in Florida since 2016 – 2017’s Irma and 2018’s Michael – there have been no direct hits over the past three hurricane seasons, from 2019 to 2021. And yet Florida accounts for 79% of all homeowners’ insurance lawsuits filed nationwide, and insurers operating in the state receive only 9% of all US homeowners’ insurance claims, based on…
