Every Byrne run is the worst run.

Or have Nightcrawler say he doesn't actually have a forked dick.

Wait, was Nightcrawler's forked dong Claremont?

I have no clue, I'm just aware that one X-Men writer claimed that Nightcrawler had a double-cock and given all of the other weird sex stuff Claremont shoehorned in it makes sense that it would have been him. e: Okay, good, I'm not going insane.

I was under the impression that McFarlane's contribution to the 90s comics industry was basically just starting Image, making Spawn, and loving off to go make toys when those two things made him crazy rich.

rkajdi posted:Image was a lot of the early 90s issues IMO. They were a huge part of the inflation of the collector bubble, which is what nearly killed the industry in the 90s. Wasn't that really mostly Liefeld's fault, though? My understanding is that what specifically made the industry go boom was Death Mate failing, which was almost entirely on Liefeld because he couldn't turn in a book to save his life.

I honestly really, really like McFarlane's art. I feel like I should hate it because of how overdone it is, but something about it just works for me.

I mean, on one hand it is kinda self-indulgent, but on the other hand my understanding is that they (along with the rest of Image) pretty much opened the indie-comic floodgates and without them we probably wouldn't have stuff like Saga, Stray Bullets, Fatale, or Manhattan Projects. If that's the case, I can't really hate them for championing that cause.

Assuming Goyer is David S. Goyer, he's not really a fantastic writer either, though.

Honestly it kinda sounds like they're both good writers when they can bounce ideas off other people (and when Goyer can keep his rear end in a top hat "LIBRULS KILLING AMERICA!!!!!! " tendencies to a minimum) but fall apart on their own.
