Well it's nice you said we had good taste. I think this is true in all media. I mean if you look at the most popular books you'll often find stuff that is astonishingly badly written, and often the really good books that go on to be classics are taken much

Well, yeah, I agree. But you know, even when they DO try very hard to make elite readers happy, all that comes back from some quarters is negative. DC put Dustin Nguyen, one of THE hottest artists in the biz, on Batgirl. They put Artgerm, one of the most in demand cover guys anywhere, on the book. They tried.

With Secret Six, they gave us three years of ongoing and two minis and a special, almost fifty issues of stuff altogether, with a series starring CATMAN for God’s sake.

The idea that the companies don’t want to do good books and stories is just an internet myth, it’s silly. Even people doing books people hate are trying to do good work, for the most part.
