The damage been done. He was a good artist, but a not-so-good writer. It was his decision to turn Marvel into a series of quarterly events. He wouldn't even let the ramifications of the events settle, before he hit the reset and started another.

He allowed some good things to happen, then would give the call to eff them up.

Watching
The recent decision by Marvel Comics President Bill Jemas and Editor-in-Chief Joe Quesada to ban smoking in the company's super-hero titles has garnered mainstream attention in the form of a recent article in The New York Post.
"Villains can still smoke, but that's OK, because villains are stupid," Quesada told The Post, elaborating that the decision was instituted because it was the "responsible thing" to do.


Quesada went on to say that the "main culprit" was Wolverine, the cigar-chomping star of the company's best-selling X-Men titles, which were turned into a hit movie last year.


The Post article went on to report that lung cancer and emphysema aren't much of a threat to Wolverine, thanks to his mutant healing power that, in addition to helping him survive high falls, bullets and stabbings, also keeps his lungs clean. But that's still not good enough for Quesada.


"[Wolverine] is a role model for some kids and he shouldn't be smoking," Quesada said. "Besides, the healing factor would keep him from getting addicted to nicotine anyway, so it doesn't even make sense for him to smoke."


The Post article went on to report that the no-smoking ban will also target Wolverine's fellow X-Man Gambit, as well as two of Marvel's oldest characters - Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., and the ever-lovin' blue-eyed Thing.


The no-smoking decision was a personal one for Quesada, a non-smoker who lost his grandfather to smoking-related emphysema and saw his father suffer a collapsed lung from smoking last year and still have problems quitting.


"It's a nasty habit that's affected my life in a tragic way," Quesada said.



bye :camby:



Only one who could heal Aunt May was Mephisto at the cost of their marriage/history. Cause they wanted a single fun Peter who they then continuously fukked up every relationship they put him in each couple of weeks.

TYRONE GA!
From a business standpoint, you could put together a narrative that, and eventually cancelling Fantastic Four was a master stroke.

But from a quality standpoint? shyt's been ROUGH at times because of that. Especially with trying to swap the Inhumans in like it was nothing.
shyt was wack. Blaming Fox when Disney had the money to cut the check

Or not having the nuts to blame Stan for selling the rights the way he did

He was always a better artist than writer to me. He definitely is responsible for some specific epic moments and reveals during his time.

His pen game is so underrated tho

Always was a fan of his unique style. Guys like him, Jae Lee, Texiera styles really stood out to me because they didn't try and look like anybody else doing it. Their books art popped immediately because it was so different, but dope as fukk in it's uniqueness.
