Are things slower around here?

Quote:As someone who has grown up reading comic books, I can tell you that the highest quality work is not done alone. There are multiple writers, and multiple artists.

I really don't think this is true. The majority of inheritance comics go through months of sludge (SUPERIOR sludge) and only sometimes have a single arc credited to a single writer (or team) which is anything special. Oftentimes the remarkable stories written in these situations aren't even connected to the primary canon, but sidestories set apart as their own title for the duration of the story. You look at characters like the X-Men and you think either "Stan Lee" or "Claremont". You look at Batman and you see "Frank Miller" and "Alan Moore". And those four names tend to be repeated indefinitely when talking about the quality material in collab. comics.

Then you get into talking about stand-alone comics worth their salt and... well, Alan Moore pops up again. Maybe Bryan Lee O'Malley or a few mangaka.

In short, any of the critically acclaimed and cult-followed material is the fruition of one individual's vision. Maybe that vision was carried out with the aid of other individuals, but the vision belongs to one person and is associated with one person.

And between all those visions are wrestling matches and filler.

You sound like you don't really like comics. =P
I also think you're getting the credits for who created the series and who wrote that particular comic (or arc) confused.
If you think Frank Miller and Alan Moore are the only two people who have written a good Batman story, than you're far off. And even the stories that they did write, they had help from others.

And I'm not talking about whose vision it is anyway, I'm talking about who carries it out.
You said it yourself: "Maybe that vision was carried out with the aid of other individuals...etc"
We will need multiple individuals to do this.

I'm not saying it takes 20 people. I'm just saying it takes more than 1.
