He seems like a fun dude to hang out with in real life so I imagine all the industry people who vote in the Eisners just like him as a person – he’s a horrible writer. The Chip Zdarsky-scripted Namor issue in particular was painful to read – how this dude ever got an Eisner is beyond me. The Doctor Strange and Silver Surfer issues were the definition of workmanlike. None of the specials stood out as worth reading. The only connecting thread between them is that someone in a bedsheet is stabbing people – I’ve already forgotten who and why! And it all leads up to fighting a giant space squid?! What a load of crap. The “story” is a disjointed mess of uninteresting garbage. The Best Defense is the worst Defenders book I’ve read yet! Doctor Strange is dead, Hulk, Namor and Silver Surfer are putzing about, and someone wearing a sheet is stabbing people.
