Going to add Ruckas Punisher. Always seems pretty underrated to me.

Going to add Ruckas Punisher. Always seems pretty underrated to me.

It is great but for me Rucka built on Ennis' vision or worked with Ennis' vision while using his main trope... kick-ass heroine, so Rucka's points go to Ennis according to me, myself and the voices in my head

Going to add Ruckas Punisher. Always seems pretty underrated to me.

Agreed.
Will say this is the one of the few times (in recent years) that the concept of the Punisher worked in the Marvel Universe.
And the sequal Warzones. Can't remember if that was also Rucka.

It was most certainly Rucka. All five issues, in fact:

Kieron Gillen on Journey into Mystery and Young Avengers
Warren Ellis on Thunderbolts
Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning on Guardians of the Galaxy
Al Ewing on Ultimates and Ultimates 2

And Nick Spencer's Amazing Spider-man is so far absolutely fantastic and heading towards favourite territory.

[Dreaded Porcupine]

Dennis Hopeless-Spider-Women
Nick Spencer-Superior Foes of Spider-Man and Ant-Man

Why? Spencer's writes BCD heroes and villains better than anyone. Both of his runs here were lighthearted and a lot of fun. Plus all the characters he incorporated into both books were numerous and he made it work. Hopeless on the other hand managed to pull off Jess having a baby and making it work. Plus he took Roger Gocking the Porcupine and did a great job on his character development. Hopeless managed to seemingly kill Roger fooling most of us and then when all hope was lost for Jess they both teamed up and kicked Hobgoblin's ass to finish off his run. I thought Hopeless' run was brilliant. Very underrated.

Agree on Spencer for Ant-Man. Surprisingly, I’ve still not got around to reading superior foes.

[Dark Soul # 7]

I just remembered one that most might not include.

Mark Millar's run on Marvel Knight: Spider-man, it's my favourite Millar written series.
