All three did good work with the character, it’s their imitators who failed in their attempts to copy them that led to our current state.
We've ventured a bit far afield of the discussion of King's run here. Anyone have some connections they want to draw out between King's run and Miller, Moore, Morrison, Snyder, Dixon, etc? I know King has said that Miller's DKR is the piece he always tries to reach and fails - but I'm curious if anyone can see how that fits, as I have difficulty seeing the connection.
