It's not looking good for Gaiman. The last time I remember a comic book writer who was accused of horrendous allegations was Warren Ellis.

I remember getting a bad feeling about Gaiman when he candidly responded "No problem. It was fun", to a disgruntled JL fan saying "Thanks for ruining Zack Snyder's Justice League" on Twitter. A bizarre reply because the tweet wasn't even directed to Gaiman, but it was response that was liked by Joss Whedon. You know what they say, birds of a feather...

At the risk of piling on, I wouldn't be the first one to notice that describing oneself as a "male feminist" (as Gaiman has done at various times in the past) seems to be a precursor to some very bad behavior.

The way things are shaping up, I'm starting to think that someone proclaiming himself to be a male feminist is a red flag and people would do well to avoid that guy.

It's all just sad and weird and disgusting, frankly.
