The 90s was no worse than any other period. Even if you talk exclusively about Marvel Comics, have you completely forgotten about the work of Kurt Busiek, Mark Waid, Frank Miller, John Romita Jr, Scott Lobdell, Alan Davis, Alex Ross, Peter David, Liam Sharp, Gary Frank, Adam + Andy Kubert, need I go on?

No, haven’t forgotten about any of that stuff.

But have you forgotten about the teeming mountains of absolute crap that surrounded it?

Any era has its good stuff and its bad stuff.
