    Default Geoff Johns most overlooked run

    Title says it all. What do you feel Johns most overlooked work is. To me it is his Actuon comics run. I feel like he really really rejuvenated that superman in those stories, but I don't hear people talk much about it. What do you thin of his superman? Is there another run that you feel deserves more attention?

    He's had many celebrated (or at least acknowledged) runs on books, but this one never gets mentioned. But, to be fair, I never hear anything about any of the Earth One GNs. I've enjoyed all of them and look forward to each new release.

    Yea, I never hear a mention about his Batman: Earth One GN. Maybe it's because he has a bad reputation on how he handled the character in JL, i guess.

    Yeah, but that shouldn't affect an alternate reality story. It's like Brian Bendis. I damn sure don't want him writing Amazing Spider-Man, but his Ultimate Spider-Man (especially the first 3-4 years) were really good, imo.

    I agree. I must say when I went to the Dark Knight Rises opening, many people did have Batman EO GN there. I believe a comic shop was giving away free Dark Knight tickets if anyone purchase the Batman GN. And yes, Bendis Ultimate Spider-Man run was very good.

    Maybe his second Flash run? The rotten taste Rebirth left in the mouth beforehand and the stupidity of Flashpoint afterwards obscured that there was a year in the middle of pretty solid superhero adventures; I'd call it his last genuinely good comic.
    Buh-bye

    Does it have to be DC? Because I think his run on the Avengers is overlooked.
    The Gypsies had no home. The Doors had no bass.

    Does our reality determine our fiction or does our fiction determine our reality?

    Whenever the question comes up about who some mysterious person is or who is behind something the answer will always be Frank Stallone.
