Reply Subj: Bendis has now probably written more Avengers stories than any other creator in the title's history. Let that sink in.

    I agree, although you can argue he did progress the characters of Luke Cage, Spider Woman, and Jessica Jones by putting them front and center in his books, which were the major titles of the Marvel Universe under his guidance.


I imagine something must have been happening with those characters, even though I never heard anyone talking about it. Admittedly, I haven't visited Avengers-specific boards in years, so the finer details likely don't reach me.

    If you had told me eight years ago the Avengers would become more important to the company than the X-Men, I would have thought you were crazy, but its Bendis who is mostly responsible for that (though Millar helped with his Ultimates run).


True, but then they catapulted the book to the top by teaming up Wolverine and Spider-man with the group and having it constantly involved in crossovers with the deaths of major characters. I'm pretty sure you could make "Millie the Model" the top seller in comics if that's what you did with it.
