Plus he introduced us to Hobgoblin, telling what almost everyone agrees are the best Hobby stories early on, gave us the Nothing Can Stop The Juggernaut story, the long overdue and excellent origin of the Vulture and, perhaps most importantly, did all this in a surprisingly short run on the title. Not only did he not overstay his welcome but his run had few, if any, lulls.
