Many have heard about Stan Lee, Jack Kirby but not many know about Otto Binder. For those who doesn't know Otto Binder start his career on Golden Age at Fawcett Comics write great Captain Marvel story. Then in Silver Age, he move to DC Comics to write great Superman story. Otto Binder have create some of the best characters in Captain Marvel and Superman mythos for example he create Brainiac as villain of Superman. Idea of Brain can beat Strength is really fascinating. With Idea of Brainiac really lead to modern day Lex Luthor. Also another major his creation is "out of continuity story" or "imaginary story". Before Marvel do "What If" type of story , DC introduce first the idea of it in Silver Age story where "Imagine Superman marry Lana Lang", "Imagine Jimmy Olsen back in time and beat Nazi" etc.
Who do you think is most underrated comic writer of all time ? Condition : only from Golden Age and Silver Age comics only
