Has he even said which characters he's having such a problem with?

His whole argument is dumb, but I'm curious which character designs have set him off.

I don’t disagree on Lobo, but “metrosexual” is just a dog whistle for gay

I honestly can't say he's wrong about that Lobo redesign, though. It's awful and doesn't fit the character at all.

I'm also not sure what the issue with his Conan is meant to be. It's not really much different to how Barry Smith and John Buscema drew the character in the 70s and 80s.

(Note: Zilcher is obviously a homophobic piece of poo poo and I'm not defending him personally. I just think these are poor criticisms when there are better ones available.)

I never understood svelte Lobo but I wasn’t reading comics at the time, so thought it was Son of Lobo or a clone or something.

Ramon's point was that his Conan isn't super huge and often has a kind of kissy-face. Zircher was all gung ho for giant macho beefcakes, but he drew Conan as a normal-ish looking guy.

He blocked me on Twitter when I criticized him for his transphobic writing on Batgirl. I’m just some rando so he must have term-searched and found every person rightfully roasting him for it. And wow, in checking my memory he had the audacity to say “oh we needed to sit back and listen” - the gently caress you did, shitbag.

What a surprise that a cis straight man who purposely wrote a harmful trans stereotype just as Gamergate was firing up is also a sex pest.

I think Cameron Stewart blocked me for just a random comment about his art, which is weird because I really like his art and bought some original pieces.
Then, a while ago, I realized I hadn't seen him doing anything for a while and tried to find out why. Welp.

I mean, dude might be a huge homophobe, but I have never equated the term "metrosexual" with anything other than "straight male with a sense of style" and I certainly never thought it was a dogwhistle

I always thought of it as "guy who uses moisturizer" and for a certain segment of the population that's basically the same as just straight up using a homophobic slur.

It all depends on context, and in this particular example I'm willing to bet he doesn't think there's much difference between using scented shampoo and crouching in front of a glory hole with your mouth wide open.

Is there any plausible deniability left in Jones's case? As in, he accepted a check to do a cover and didn't look into who was signing it? Or is he well and truly among the chuds?

I went a bit through his Twitter feed and he never once mentions manga. Most of the time he even brings up media it’s to declare that “woke” media is bad.

He strikes me as the type to complain that SJWs made Gundam gay by having gay girls in the new show

That reminds me of a very similar-feeling Twitter thread where a guy had a 20 tweet thread about how the new show had Murdered Gundam and then it got to the end and it was like "Soon I'll watch the first episode."

Should've asked him what his favorite manga was, although I'm sure his pride would prevent him from admitting he knew Frieza's name or something.

They actually released a special prologue episode a month or so before the show started, and after the regular episodes started to air they admitted that they did it because they knew a Gundam series starting with romantic hijinks in a high school might put off traditional Gundam fans so the major purpose of the prologue was to reassure everyone that the show was the sort of story where people will die horribly. Basically, "OK, yes, you're gonna have to sit through some romcom antics. But this girl committed war crimes when she was four years old so you can be confident we'll get to the horrors of war soon"

Which is useful because it lets you know that people complaining about Witch From Mercury having the wrong tone or setting or whatever are just unhappy about the gayness.
