@backflip:

Considering I only recently learned about Wood (Lobdell hasn't impressed me in a long while so he wouldn't have made my list), your question is weighing heavily on my mind. As a comic affecionado, I love Wood's work -- from Local (so amazing) to Conan and others (Mara) and of course, the adjectiveless X-Men. Wood's depiction of all his characters - not just the female ones - I appreciated, and his outspokeness in the past about gender issues (both in the comics themselves and in the creating of them) has been negated to an extent. I just feel a deep sadness over this to be honest. I genuinely feel very let down.

Wood is an amazing writer. But for me, this will affect my support of him.

I really like most of what Remender does. Aaron wrote Scalped so I gotta include him. I liked Y the Last Man and love Saga so also Brian K. Vaughn. There's other great writers but these 3 spring to mind right now.

Brian Azzarello, Tom Waltz, Jason Aaron, Justin Jordan, Mark Waid and Greg Pak are some of my favourite current comic writers at the moment.

These are legends....

Read Ann Nocenti's Daredevil?

Many have told me that it is excellent but one good work over 5 atrocious ones aren't a sign of a good writer.

Scott Lobdell had a legendary Xmen run in the 90s but that's it, everything else is mediocre at best.

Even his X-Men run is mediocre.
