One thing I know is that when women are drawn topless, we do not see a nippleless chest. That's generally not the case with their male counterparts.
JB, what determines whether you draw nips on men?

Different reasons. One writer, legend has it, asked an artist to follow Barry Smith’s example and put nipples on Conan. As the tale is told, second artist responded “M’boy, that’s just a homosexual affectation.”Kinda hope that’s apocryphal! Mostly, tho, I suspect the Code, in spirit if not in law!

And that's not true everywhere: John Buscema's Conan and other characters have nipples.On Kull... well maybe they're from a time where nipples didn't exist!...
Edit to add: Humm that must be an Atlantean thing since Namor doesn't seem to have any either.

I was refering to Kirby and Gene Colan*. (and could so joke in rapproching it of Kull). Your version has nipples, and that's a good thing.
Edit: after checking, it seems a generality on the old serie, that's not just Colan, John Buscema and Marie Severin do not give him nipples either.

Officially the weirdest thread, like, ever. “Slugs! He made slugs! Nipples for men!”

I was wracking my brain trying to remember that TIME BANDITS line. Thanks, Chief!

This is the reason there was never a comicbook adaptation of the film The Man With The Golden Gun.

Isn't there a line in the old Walter Matthau/Robin Williams movie 'The Survivors' where they're stuck out in the snow and Williams' character remarks, "It's weather like this that reminds you men have nipples too."?
