Rom gets into his first misunderstanding fight and of course it is Jack of Hearts.
Is Jack going to take over and make everything about him like he did in She-Hulk's book?
I can’t be mad at Mantlo for trying to push his creation, but Jack of Hearts is no Rocket Raccoon.
Jack follows Rom into space.
Of course, Rom is only mostly dead.

Yes, Rom's actions and unwillingness to explain himself don't make a good case, but Jack's belligerence and constant usage of the word "alien" is not a good look for him, either.
-"If I could come out of a battle with the Green Goliath, I can certainly survive a fight with you!"-
Gosh, Jack must've been crushed when it turned out Hulk's never actually killed anyone, but has been subconsciously calculates things to make sure he never deliberately harms anyone in his rampages.
"Hulk out-brain Jack of Hearts."

Supporting evidence: They've tried to simplify his look twice, and it never sticks:
