The clean-up job

Comic runs, where writers had to walk in after chaos & try to restore dignity, coherence, or basic logic to beloved characters.

The best part was re-canonizing Juggernaut.

PAD was based.

The Busiek special.

Oh like what?

PAD was based.

RIP PAD, and thank you for comics like this.

He probably means the Heroes Return Iron Man and Avengers books, but he basically got all those characters handed to him already reset back to normal.

I hear nothing but goodthings about Busiek's runs.

Geoff Johns is known for this more than anyone else, but Anon Babble doesn't want to admit it.

It's a 50/50 with him.
He did ruin Jen in the first place with his shitty Red Zone story line.

He didn't, it's just She-Hulk waifufags don't like her having a human alter-ego she reverts to, it ruins the fantasy for them.

Hey if we can get rid of Donald Blake...
Just saying it's kinda hypocritical.

No, it's not.

The correct comparison would be Bruce Banner, not Donald Blake. And nobody in their right mind wants to get rid of Bruce Banner permanently.

Let's not forget that in Rowell's run she forgot Jen had a human form for like 99% of the book.

Merged Hulk is Bruce as a mentally well person.

lets forget Rowell’s run

Ftfy

Well it was a saccharine Hallmark/Lifetime movie in comicbook form.

Nick Spencer's Amazing Spider-Man

well it was absolutely dogshit for faggots and 35 year old cat moms so yeah, let’s just forget it ever existed.

I concur.

Man that felt like yesterday...

JMS on Spider-Man, Waid on Fantastic Four, PKJ right now on Hulk

Donald Blake got done dirty. Twice!

Geoff Johns on Green Lantern
Garth Ennis on Punisher Marvel Knights
Rainbow Rowell on Runaways
Steve Orlando on Scarlet Witch

No one remembers this run

It's only maligned because it's a bounty hunter/road trip affair instead of the assclownery that was superhuman law that people pretended to care about.

Kieron Gillen after Bendis – X-Men: S.W.O.R.D. / Immortal X-Men

Heh, 50/50. It sort of ruined GG, Harry and Sin Eater.

also it had a crossover with x-factor.

Rainbow Rowell on Runaways

Steve Orlando on Scarlet Witch

Kind off, but it was good enought, that the next writter adapt alots of thing in it

I'd call this the definitive DP run.

doesn't actually end up fixing anything because editorial doesn't want it fixed

Rowell's Runaways was a SIGNIFICANT improvement over what was being done to them prior

Rick Remender after Jeph Loeb – Uncanny X-Force

meh

Yeah I don't think there's any coming back from that humiliation ritual.

re-canonizing Juggernaut

They tried to erase him from canon? Why?

Them sleeping together was retconned out.
It's probably one of the pettiest retcons.
