There are two sides to every dinar. This phrase seemed
appropriate to Joxer.
 
What follows is a comparison between the "Real" Joxer
and the "Suave" Joxer, as introduced in FOR HIM THE
BELL TOLLS (#40), using a point system.
 
1.  BATTLE CRY
 
RJ's (Real Joxer) battle cry is "Don't make me hurt
you". Where as SJ's (Suave Joxer) is "Blood, Valor and
Victory". SJ gets the point here.
 

2.  SELF CONFIDENCE
 
RJ has a subtle type of self confidence. He has low
self-esteem, but when the chips are down he comes out
fighting and holds his own. On the other hand SJ's is a
cocky self confidence, and he acts like he is the best
in an annoying manner. RJ gets the point.
 

3.  RESPECT FOR OTHERS
 
RJ would never steal another man's woman, or act so
invincible as to go against a king in a sword fight.
Unfortunately this is exactly what SJ does and it would
appall RJ to know what his alter ego was doing. RJ gets
the point.
 
4.  LOOKS
 
This is a tough one. RJ has natural boyish appeal, but
SJ adds sex appeal to that. SJ gets the point.
 

Adding the points up you get:
 
   RJ: 2
   SJ: 2
 
It is a tie! You can be the tie breaker using your own
personal preference.
