WRITERS:
It seems to me that the big two are willing to let any writer they want to keep around do whatever they want to do with the characters in the their publishing stable.  Got a whim?  Why not explore it?  Hell, why not explore it in our flagship title?  Hell, why not let us reboot a title and let you relaunch it from scratch?  You won't even need to write about the title character if you don't want too.

"Stronger than GL"

Superman is now so strong that he can break the constructs of the Green Lantern's ring?  Those constructs that are strengthened by a will so powerful that the guardians of the galaxy uses it as one of their agents who is responsible for patrolling an entire sector of space on their own?  Come on Geoff Johns, really?

"The New Moon Knight"

Moon Knight has always possessed multiple identities that went far beyond that of just a cover.  Marc Spector was always a little nuts and really operated like an individual with multiple personality disorder but possessing a version of Wolverine, Spiderman, and Captain America within his mind?  That's nothing more than proving that Bendis can't write a story without Spiderman or Wolverine in it.  Thanks for ruining a great character Bendis.

I liked Moon Knight in the early days when his multiple identities were deliberate constructs of his that he used as tools to assist him in his work. To me, that made him more like a hi-tech version of The Shadow and less like the Batman clone Marvel forced him to become. Once some wag got the notion that Moon Knight really did suffer from multiple personality disorder, I lost interest in the character.

I totally agree with you Derrick. MK has always been a favorite of mine and Its a shame that the book was canceled. Who will want to write him now that Bendis has tried and failed? :(
