Zircher goes way overboard
Now that was throughly uncalled for, repellently nasty, and grounds for dismissal from any company whose editors hired him up until now. It's not like I care for much of the mainstream work van Sciver did, but that's still no excuse for Zircher's obscene wishing, and most of what he's worked on for mainstream isn't much better, recalling the Nightwing embarrassment from 15 years ago.
This is just a beginning sample of what he's been saying about Comicsgate and right-wingers in the past few days. Here's several more items he's written that keep getting worse as they go along:
Many in comicsgate are the same personalities that would have been among the first to join the Nazi party.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 6, 2019
They think stupidly, in extremes, they worship a leader, and desire enemies to rage at.
'Hail Caesar' is not far removed from Heil Hitler.
I know. I love comics and I'm kind of center Left.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 6, 2019
I'd rather talk about comics and making books.
Some of it is kids who just want to shitpost, but some of it is much uglier. The white nationalists amidst comicsgate are like child molesters lurking around a playground. https://t.co/X6KXw79MuJ
On that note, did he ever call out vile men like Gerard Jones when he was still working in comicdom and manga for the gross felonies he supported, and was recently imprisoned for? This is such disgusting language he's using here, explaining perfectly what's wrong with the mentality on Twitter as a whole. He also had the following to say in response to a thread about van Sciver's Cyberfrog development:
I just laughed out loud.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
I will say you'll never see that from me... because it looks like something I would have drawn in 1995 and be ashamed of now.
You don't look 14 years old but if it's your thing, it's your thing.
It certainly isn't mine. https://t.co/wWxiPYWWlI
Oh, see, I feel a little guilty even bashing comicsgate. Not because they don't deserve it, it's just...— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
just...
okay, I don't feel that guilty. https://t.co/69AMw8UPs0
That's like saying he's ashamed of something that would be deemed politically incorrect by today's vicious standards the left goes by. On which note, is he ashamed of that Nightwing monstrosity writer Devin Grayson certainly is today?
There are Republicans but, being bright, honest, hard working people, most of them are embarrassed by the current administration and, in relation to comics, Comicsgate. https://t.co/Hu98tQ020T— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
Let me guess. He's alluding to Dan Jurgens? Anyway, here's where his anti-Comicsgate rants become horrific:

What's the difference between a Comicsgater and a bucket of horseshit?— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
The bucket. https://t.co/TiijXBxxPF
How do you keep a Comicsgater busy?— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
Write "flip" on both sides of a sheet of paper. https://t.co/jjAs1jkDd6

What's the difference between a smart Comicsgater and Bigfoot?— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
Some people claim to have seen Bigfoot. https://t.co/TiijXBxxPF
I have read a thousand tweets from Comicsgate, and not a single funny one. They have no humor, and even in an enemy I like some humor.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
It's very selfish to be a bore. https://t.co/dARKsHjvxG
Really? Because I read all these repellent comments he spewed out, and not a single funny one from Zircher. That's vulgar in the extreme, and won't win any more fans for him. Worst, we can't count on the Big Two to give him walking papers for being so rude to customers. The Quesada/DiDio bunch are simply not reliable. Here's still more:
Why did the Comicsgater celebrate when he finished the jigsaw puzzle in 6 months?— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
The box said "2 to 4 years". https://t.co/LHf5OBTMWj
Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, a stupid Comicsgater, and a smart Comicsgater are walking down the street and see a $10 bill. Who picks it up?— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
The stupid Comicsgater. Because there's no such thing as Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, or a smart Comicsgater. https://t.co/56bWUqPlcF
What if the Comicsgator spent it on comics he thought were great quality? But then, Zircher clearly isn't in this gig for glory.
What's the difference between God and Ethan Van Sciver?— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
God doesn't think he's Ethan Van Sciver. https://t.co/EjGDCH5VCS
Because what they're raging against scarcely exists.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
Superhero comics are still thrill-based entertainment, w/ humor, drama, the works.
1 in 50 may have a mildly-posed Left p.o.v.
That a few more characters are women & minorities isn't 'politics', it's broadmindedness. https://t.co/2ekUf3R0D7
Unfortunately, modern superhero comics are far less about any of those themes, if at all. The Secret Empire crossover certainly confirmed that.
What it is is a ploy, much like in politics; Comicsgate tells someone over and over they have a problem, exaggerates it-- then say they are the solution, come to me.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
Was told the other day he was bullied as a boy. He shows all the signs of that (his most fervent supporters do too).— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
And he made the negative choice, a love of authoritarianism (McCarthyism, Nationalism), calling himself Caesar, an 'army', being abusive to others who are bullied. https://t.co/PjhkW9ZCMj
I don't think I can muster sympathy for it. I've known abused people who made a better choice with their own lives. They chose to be better than their abuser. https://t.co/yFQaVK9NXG— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
And he didn't experience any of the same? Or, was he a bully himself? It's sad to think about, but realistically speaking, not impossible. After all, he's doing it now...and being obsessive about Comicsgate.
Easy to figure right from wrong. Comicsgate just retreats after each round of bullying. 'Fog of war'.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 7, 2019
Misgendering trans people is the latest.
The list of women, black, & trans writers (& fans) they've harrassed is getting long.
Comicsgate demands tolerance but offers very little https://t.co/NQg6Off2mL
You could say the same for male transgender ideology activists who want to cheat in women's sports and use the same bathrooms as women do. Come to think of it, you could also say it about the now unemployed DC editor Eddie Berganza, whom Zircher probably never bothered to call out for his offenses against women when it still mattered, and even former Dark Horse editor Scott Allie. So what's his point?
There are a whole bunch of people who are maybe a little more Right than Left that follow me. They don't have MAGA in their bio, they're pretty level-headed politically.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 8, 2019
They're fine. https://t.co/9cM7vhkNvV
So he's saying those rightists who don't get blocked by him aren't because they're not Trump supporters? I'm sorry, that's still no excuse. He even wrote why he favors a certain Democrat senator:
The criticism toward Kamala Harris over being a former D.A. is one of the very things I like about her.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 8, 2019
A Democrat Cop, a bit of a ballbuster who still believes in democratic principles.
More please.
She's done some pretty awful things herself, and her past job as a legal specialist doesn't change the fact she's one of many bad Dems today.
People are too easily let down.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 8, 2019
I don't have Chuck Dixon blocked regardless that he's a fairly staunch rightwinger.
I worked with him in the past, he's a very good comic book writer, and he doesn't follow the loudmouths on here. https://t.co/Zun1mvWE5g
It makes no difference. What Zircher's doing is embarrassing in the extreme. And while he may seemingly respect Dixon, it doesn't appear Zircher's ever defended him after he got blacklisted by the Big Two, so his positive comments about Dixon are unsatisfying, and besides, did it ever occur to him some of the Comicsgators may also be Dixon fans? Indeed, why is Zircher alienating the core audiences of some writing pros?
The 'superior morality' this web of spiders pretends to possess is ridiculous and nauseating. pic.twitter.com/5JLncu52XM— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 8, 2019
Pictorial Trump-bashing, I see. Oh, how clever.
I've never been fired by a comic publisher. Not once.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 8, 2019
If I wasn't working on one title they offered me another. If I chose to draw for another publisher, I simply did.
I'm drawing Marvel (ostensibly Disney) pgs right now.
It's clear who's actually full of impotent rage. https://t.co/j7VU6pgWlK
Well maybe the time's come they at least consider taking disciplinary action against him for stuff that could rate as a PR embarrassment. He wrote the above in reply to a thread about van Sciver being hired by Dynamite to draw them a few exclusive covers, which Zircher apparently despises. It's clear somewhere along the way, they had a bitter fallout, and Zircher's not going about this the right way.
When it's a blatant lie, intended to impugn work reputation, it seems it should be libelous.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 8, 2019
A lot of mean-spirited people in that Comicsgate bunch. https://t.co/bZFFoI0QWT
And again, he won't ponder whether he's being the same. As for this rumor of an affair, are there any screencaps of those allegations? Otherwise, I can only assume this is some kind of "spite defamation" or something. Not a very good way to make a case.
Fortunately, I can.— Patch Zircher (@PatrickZircher) May 8, 2019
I would not want to, but I would do it if I had to.
Comicsgaters tried to get my account suspended yesterday. Twitter waived it off.
How's that for impotent rage :) https://t.co/S7fi7jyGpr
After all the horrific comments he made, including those against van Sciver, why be surprised? All those "jokes" he made about Comicsgate were in most horrific taste, and only taint the medium all the more. As of now, there's undoubtably plenty of people who, even if they're not Comicsgate supporters per se, could still be spooked away from buying Zircher products. He really blew it this time, and any sensible pros in the medium who understand what a disfavor he's performed should distance themselves from such a bitter, petty man quickly. It's just truly awful, and very saddening.

"Zircher Drops His Pants and Bares His Tiny Black Soul" would have been a better title. I doubt very much he knows any Republicans and if he does, I'm sure they would tell him exactly what he wants to hear as they wouldn't want to get punched. I've know a number of people with extreme anger issues like Zircher in comics and work hard to avoid them. Unfortunately, the magic of Twitter allows them to share their sad mental issues with everybody.

He does say he knows and respects Chuck Dixon, who is on the far right of the Republican Party.

Chuck Dixon isn't "far right." That's just a term clowns like you use to describe people who disagree with you.
Posted by AgentofSHIELD | 5:58 AM
Chuck Dixon: Clinton Cash. QAnon stories. Trump Space Force. WOrking with Vox Day on Alt*Hero. Villains who often turn out to be environmental terrorists or liberal show biz types. You cant go much further right without turning into a Nazi. At the same time, he is respectful of people who don't share his opinions. He would never call someone a clown just because they don't share his opinions; he has more class than that.

You're right, he prefers his fetishes and vices behind closed doors.
