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?

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. Originally Posted by Sodam Yat

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.

i never really loved Batman Earth 1. Maybe just because I'm not a huge Batman collector and I'm already into Snyders batman. Also that is what keeps Fart Frank away from a Shazam book. It is however one that I feel DC is constantly pushing.

İf you are a superman fan... then i can understant it, cause superman doesn't fit in earth one and that can be frustrating for a superman fan. But i love the affort of more realistic batman. I loved Nolan Batman and i love geoff&frank batman... the affort always appriciated by me. And i really liked Shazam too... i think it's kind of immiture to call Gary Frank that by even the standarts of a comics book guy or a girl if you ask me. lol Originally Posted by Cowboy Ninja Viking

Definitely his Teen Titans run. I don't consider Batman Earth One to be a "run" since they're OGNs and not really a series and they come out so infrequently. I never see anyone talking about his Teen Titans at all but it's actually the best the Titans have ever been post-Crisis, imo.
