* Chris Claremont's 1975-1991 run on [[X-Men]] was full of spectacular stories and characters. His collaborations with artists John Byrne, Alan Davis, and Dave Cockrum were imaginative and fresh, and really codified the [[Bronze Age]] of comics in my opinion.
* [[Frank Miller]] really got the [[Darker and Edgier]] [[Nineties Anti-Hero|Nineties Anti Heroes]] off the ground, and I love him for it. I'm basing several characters off of his interpretation of [[Batman]] alone, and a villain off of his Joker. I'd just like to give him a huge [[Shout-Out]] here, because he's really magnificent at what he does.
* [[Neil Gaiman]]. [[The Sandman (Comic Book)|The Sandman]]. Need I say more?
* [[Grant Morrison]] may be... [[Broken Base|controversial]]... when it comes to his [[X-Men]] work, but I thought his run on [[Justice League|JLA]] was nothing short of spectacular. Fascinating plots that delved into the psyches of iconic characters, and deepened them while keeping them recognizable. I still look at that run as the best way to handle a team composed of characters that, in any other writer's hands, would quickly devolve into a [[Thirty-Sue Pileup]].
** His run on [[Animal Man]] is nothing short of epic. Buddy and his family feel like real people, the Fourthwall gets demolished, and the last issue, {{spoiler|where [[Comicook/Animal Man|Animal Man]] actually meets [[Grant Morrison]]}} is perhaps the greatest single issue of any comic ever published.
