It's at least kinda related. This is a new name and a logo, but it is also a statement of intent, they say "what cool things will we make AFTER Beyond Canon?". So going forward, if this is more than just "the group Andrew put together to fix Homestuck", I do think it makes sense to know exactly what and who it is, legally.

I'm not out here to defend Reddit, or Makin, or Gio or whoever, to be clear. I have my gripes with all of them, I've tried to quarantine myself from seeing most of them (Makin behaves himself in the official discord at least). I am ultimately someone who loves Homestuck and wants to see it do well. But sometimes it looks like Homestuck's work culture is "just have faith that a person with a lot of power over you won't seriously screw everything up", and that's a bad thing whether or not they actually do.
