Loved his inks over you. First saw them in IRON FIST 15 then THE
AVENGERS. Would’ve loved to have seen a longer-run collaboration.

And those IF/AVENGERS inks were vastly different than what he was doing in the 90's and 00's, and yet they fit like a glove. I actually like them more than Austin's inks - but it also comes down to me having a natural preference towards a more organic line over a mechanical one.

I remember seeing the first inker on BLOOD OF THE DEMON and I commented here that he sorta reminded me of Dan Green's inks. And then within the year, that inker left and Green took over! I had wondered if I had maybe subconsciously influenced that!

I loved Green's inks on BOTD. His newer "chaotic" line fit the tone of the book perfectly.

I think JB will never be forgiven for the original sin of leaving the "X-Men," even by those not born when he did.

Am I the only one who wishes all the big talents switched around to different books every two years?  (Maybe 3-6 years in JB's case, he's so prolific.)  I loved the CC/JB/TA team on X-MEN, but I remember being super-excited when JB moved on to FANTASTIC FOUR!

But, yeah, I would have loved if he moved around even more!  Two years of JB on HULK, CAPTAIN AMERICA, THOR, DEFENDERS, GREEN LANTERN, BATMAN, and more would have been amazing!

But he gave us plenty of long stints on great books!  I'm not complaining!

I just finished a reread of the entire thread.

Whew!
