What set me up for more disappointment was when I'd pick up an issue with a great Perez cover only to find another artist's work on the inside.
I read the list as a countdown to the two best--Dillin and Sekowsky, obviously for their sheer volume of output, and for the fact that Sekowsky did it all at the beginning, setting the record for everyone else.
As Mike said on hearing of Dillin's passing, "Yeah, that book would kill anybody."
Hughes was okay, but no way his run tops Kevin Maguire's which was the definitive Justice League for that era. It's Maguire who created such a buzz among fandom--I remember the conversations in the comic shops at the time. Maguire was it.
Another personal favourite was Bart Sears on JUSTICE LEAGUE EUROPE. It was so . . . European.
