I'm not going to make any judgments on someone in regards to their ability just because of something they might say. Tomasi cheesed me off way back when we he answered a question from a fan of New 52 Superman about him coming back with "This (Rebirth Superman) is the Superman you should love." Flippant answer? Absolutely. Doesn't mean it revealed anything about his ability as a writer. He just said something condescending. It annoyed a group of fans but whatever, its said and we move on. People can be condescending at times. And to be fair these people probably get A LOT of the same questions over and over and over. No one's going to be perfect about it every time. So from personal experience I get a fan being irked over a flippant response, but I think it goes a little too far to infer anything into it in regards to his character and ability as a writer.
