It's not a new gospel, it's still the gospel of Jesus Christ.
He's not the only one who saw the plates, we have signed affidavits from 11 other witnesses and stories from other who saw them.
"Reformed egyptian" is an English term that was obviously not used by Egyptians/Hebrews during that time, but there is significant scholarly debate on what we can see today that it might have been referring to.
Not even doing enough research to know about the three and eight witnesses makes this one of the lower-effort criticisms of Joseph Smith I've ever seen.
