Almost all Spiderman variants are cooler than Peter Parker except Gwen
Shuri was a better Black Panther

People only like Gwen because of the costume, outside of that she is pretty much a nothing burger

Death and Return of Superman is actually one of DC's best events.

Clone Saga was right all along, well, at the beginning. A perfect answer would have been Peter being a clone, Ben being the real Spider-Man, and Peter going off to live happily ever after as a regular married man while we also get the "real" Peter Parker as a single Hamlet with quips type web slinger.

Alan Moore's Superman comics are a 1000 times better than Killing Joke.

Garth Ennis was never that good, that truth has revealed itself to me only recently and it kills me to admit it :'(

Batman Year One is much, much, much better than DKR.
Is that controversial?
I've seen a lot of acceptance of that fact in recent years.

I'll go a step further - Year One is really the only Batman comic you need to read. The property has yet to reach that level of quality again, in any medium, since its release.

People who prefer Year Zero baffle me.

Ultimate Eddie Brock and the Ultimate venom symbiote are both the best interpretations that they have ever had.

Im not sure I'd ts controversial but it's just bizarre to me that DKR gets all this love and reverence while Year One goes unmentioned most of the time.

Also here's an opinion-Frank Millar sucks as an artist.

Mazuchelli is a god

Hickman's Avengers wasn't any good

Coates can't write comics to save his life

Tom King can't do big comics

Slott hasn't written a good comic since the end of Superior

Dick Grayson, while a better character on average than Bruce on average, was a far less interesting Batman. Both times.

The New Gods have been interesting maybe 3 times in their entire existence.

I think the idea to have Venom be a woman whose husband and unborn child were killed by a taxi-driver that was distracted by Spider-Man is to good/interesting an idea to just leave sitting on the cutting room floor.

Slott's Silver Surfer is his masterpiece for sure.
The best Marvel series in recent years, along with Immortal Hulk.

Mazuchelli definitely is a god.

As for Miller as an artist... That was definitely my first impression.
But his visual approach to Ronin still astonishes me to this day.
Obviously, Miller is problematic for a thousand reasons but Ronin is a book I will always recommend. Not to read mind you, but to look at.

Erica Henderson's art is bad cartooning that should be left in hipster indie crap

The Eisner Award is nothing more than a popularity contest and has no real value to the art form

Peter Parker is broken due to being unable to grow beyond being single and a financial failure. Miles has more potential.

If Ben Reilly had been allowed to be the original Spider-Man while Peter settled down with MJ having children, fans would have accepted it and we'r all be better off for it.

There is never anything wrong with naked retcons. The problem only arises when the retcon is a poor one in substance.

That's a far more interesting origin than Eddie Brock and Venom as a woman would look cooler, too
