Hell yeah! I'm big enough to get an article dedicated to trashing my comic, I can die happy!
But yeah, the "review" is pretty out there. I do enjoy critique, and I do my best to apply it when it helps me improve what I'm already doing, but I don't take feedback that tells me to make something else entirely. It wouldn't be my story anymore if I did. I guess that means I can't take criticism. xD
There was a time someone came to hate on one of the series that I draw for. We were announcing that we were going on a small vacation of two months for the Holidays and then we'll be back.
This person started as "Don't come back" and eventually escalated and insulted the author of the series and constantly claimed that they were a better writer and stuff like that, lots of insults about the characters, the fact that is a romantic/supernatural story and that I was wasting my time drawing for it, basically:
They were throwing hate because they considered unfair that a "crappy author" was getting a decent artist for their series and they didn't, funny thing, when I told them I was getting paid to work for the series and gave them my prices they began to evade the topic while just claiming that "it was going to look awful on my portfolio"
My closest friends all haven't even opened my novel to read it or like it or anything. Kills me, way meaner than bad criticism to not even try to support it sucks. I know they like my writing style because they had me write their essays for them lol.
But it's a good story I think, and way more art is coming soon.
technically this wasn't on my comic itself but it's based on/adapted from a series of short stories i wrote for a creative writing class where we would hand out copies, everyone would read it and write down critiques on their individual copy and give them back to the writer (this was back in the Before Times when you could do such a thing without dying of the plague)
there was this one person i could kinda tell didn't really like my story on basis of the premise/tone/style alone and was a bit more harsh in their criticisms which stung a lot since that was my first real time getting feedback on my creative work in any meaningful capacity. but the one thing that stuck with me for some reason is when they called a bit where a character drew a pentagram on the ground to do magic "laughably cliche."
like, its kinda silly that it bothered me like that and, now that i think about it, isn't really a "hate comment." i had put things like that into my stories because i like occult/spooky stuff and that combined with the "laughably" i guess my brain interpreted that as them laughing at something i liked/me for liking it? because after that i developed this whole complex about sharing the things i like/create with people irl because im afraid they'll think its edgy/cringy/dumb.
so far i haven't gotten any actual hate comments on my actual comic so i just came into this thread to ramble for 3 paragraphs about how im emotionally unstable
Not a hate comment really but a close friend of mine tried reading my first novel which is a supernatural/romance story so of course, you can expect the romance genre to pop out. Like they read 2 chapters and then said 'its nice but it would have been much better without any romance' which kinda bummed me out cuz that was like the first feedback i'd gotten from a person i knew irl
Sometimes even a negative comment is at least a comment & sort of proof that someone read the story, right?
The one that stood out to me the most was that one person few years back that said something along the lines of "Each time there's a new update I feel like throwing up, because I hope the story will get better, but it only gets worse" cue long rant.
To everyone who has friends and fam telling them crap about their stuff. that sucks. But honestly, That's why no one (besides my wife) knows Im making a comic. haha. The sad thing is, it's a very easy secret to keep, cause no one cares what I'm doing all the time.
Anyway... This isn't a hate comment. But.. I just don't know how to take it, is it just pointing out the obvious? Or, criticizing me for being predictable?
(the comment)
"The hero succession trope never fails. "You- you...must protect the world from evil after I'm gone." dies "
It makes me appreciate how supportive everyone around me is and always was.
My relatives all love my comics and music
Well I got my first hate comment on Artfol, and it was about my series' cover. I wanted to add a screen of it but I just find out that the person deleted their account, so the comment is no longer visible. 
It was something very lazy like "gays must die".
I remember thinking "wow, I just got an hate comment, I'm a real artist now!!"
Lol.... I just got a comment from a site where i also share my comic, she wrote to me: "your links are dead. At least for me".
Honestly, that sounds like she actually has trouble clicking on your link :'D
If she wrote "your links are dead. At least to me", I would've assumed it was a jab at your comic (in the vein of "you/your comic is dead to me")
But ... please just double check if your link is working lmao XD
You're absolutely right... sometimes things can be misunderstood, once someone said something similar to me and this person answered me in a very rude way, you see,... the funny thing is that the webtoon link is fine ... I already sent her the links again.
I don't get much comments, positive or negative, but I think somewhat meanest comments on my comics have been for example commenting on the protagonist Sir Kiljaos the lion paladin:"Why he looks like a bootleg Simba?". I've never been too offended about this and just find it funny because he indeed did look too much like Simba from The Lion King in the early comics and drawings (below are comparisons between his looks in 2012 to 2019). 
Once my brother also commented on why most characters have to be anthro animals, but he just doesn't understand fantasy things and isn't the target audience so I've never been that offended by this.
Otherwise really the meanest reactions to my comics so far have been some times when I've shared a new page at Discord groups, and everyone have just ignored it and have immetiadedly started talking about something non-related after my posting.
