Usually I enjoy the discerning reading at Ninth Art, and I've had fun strolling through their Alphabetti Fumetti. But I don't care whether someone likes George Perez's work or not — Bulent Yusuf's column today, in which he shames the usually highbrow Ninth Art by letting his dislike for Perez's work get in the way of the purpose of the column — to profile comics greats — was nothing short of disappointing. And let me be clear: Bulent Yusuf is welcome to his opinion, but a good writer doesn't let his opinion get in the way of his article.

On a happier note, watch this space ... the Collected Editions 2006 Mid-Year TPB Predictions are coming ...
I thought I was the only one! I've HATED Yusuf's articles, particularly his "coverage" of Jim Lee and Fabian Nicieza. Talk about condenscending.
