Rat begins to tell him the truth, but then pauses and says instead that Pig hit his head on the moon.

However, his side of the SlapSlapKiss relationship between him and teammate Ice is genuinely tender and sensitive, a fact that Ice's friend Fire flat out ''refuses'' to believe. Additionally, originally he consciously put on his tough guy facade to cope with being TheUnFavorite with an overachieving big brother.

** JJ was once offered a deal: if he stopped bashing Spidey every time he needed an editorial, he'd get an exclusivity deal with the NewAvengers. He even got to hear ''[[CaptainAmerica Captain Fucking America]]'' tell him Spidey was a hero rather than a monster. His response? After shaking hands on the deal, he promptly went back to not only committing libel, but making accusations of bribery and digging up things like "wanted murderer" (Wolverine), "terrorist" (Spider-Woman) and "convicted drug dealer" (Luke Cage, who was framed and ''exonerated'').

** These inconsistencies are avoid by the UltimateUniverse J. Jonah Jameson (probably because the only writer was Bendis). He embodies this trope completely. Three examples stick out - firstly, after firing Peter in a temper tantrum, he comes to the kid's house and opens up to him about his son dying, before offering to give him his job back and allowing him to start shadowing Ben Urich so he can get a taste for real journalism. The second is him doing a HeelFaceTurn on the whole Spider-Man thing [[spoiler: after the Ultimatum arc when it's not certain if Spidey survived, and writing a heartfelt public apology/obituary for the webslinger.]] Lastly, he [[spoiler: eventually discovers Peter's secret identity and his first reaction is to offer him money. He says he'll pay for Parker's entire college education on the basis that "I'm a rich man, I'd hardly notice."]]

** John Stewart was a bit of a jerk as an AngryBlackMan in his first story. He was belligerent enough for Hal Jordan to question the Guardians' judgement about having him recruited as his new backup. However, Stewart quickly proves himself and Jordan happily concedes at the end of the story that while Stewart's outspoken style might be off-putting, he's still an excellent recruit.

And kind, laid-back Clark Kent's attraction to her has strong (though gender-flipped) AllGirlsWantBadBoys vibes.

** In his more darker characterization Cyclops is this. In recent times he formed a hit squad of the more sociopathic members of the X-Men to kill the X-Men's greatest enemies. Before that he had a psychic affair on his wife who died later (Thought ''he was'' going through a deep emotional breakdown and he was manipulated into doing so) and before that abandoned his wife and son to go to his ex girlfriend (but at the same time he was emotionally conflicted, tried to make it up and felt really guilty afterwards as well as possibly being manipulated into doing that as well). However, he only formed the Hit squad in the first place to protect mutants from their most dangerous enemies while they were on the verge of extinction where all it would take is the slightest super weapon to destroy them. In ''Deadpool X Marks The Spot'' he sends Wolverine to kill Deadpool, but only because he risked making the X-Men look like monsters and earlier comforted Murcury when her father was being a dick. And while he at times is displayed as a cold emotionless leader, he was visibly upset when Thunderbird (A real JerkAss) died despite him being powerless to stop it from happening, as well as feeling guilty that he allowed Kitty to get trapped in her ghost state/a giant bullet.
