You're accusing people of not having correct information, and you're not exactly a budding example of it either here, Mr. Sin Eater.
Where has it said that Dan Slott was on the Bendis "team". I believe that the other post in the Marvel forums had Dan Slott revealing that he was greenlit a new project for the end of this year, beginning of next year, and that it wouldn't be like his current run of books on Marvel, with a light hearted and fun tone to the book.
There are stupid people in this world who do not have the ability to think for themselves, so they spend there lives just going through the motions until somebody helps them think. Seriously, though, you should try thinking for yourself. It's not THAT hard to do.

He's had a forum on Bendis' site for QUITE sometime. And Dan Slott is also a poster on THIS message forum as well. And I'm sure he's going to Marvel retreats because he's been proving himself as a great writer over the years with his Spider-Man/Human Torch miniseries, GLA miniseries, and his fantastic run on She-Hulk. I'm sure THAT had nothing to do with it.
He's had a forum at Bendis' site for a few months. That's hardly 'quite some time"... I believe it was the end of March. He was given that forum because Bendis took him under his wing after attacks on Slott at Newsarama. He's now one of the boys at Marvel, thanks to Bendis. I say this as a fan of Dan Slott, but I always have the ability to put two and two together, and I'm old enough to understand how the world works. I take it you still live at your mom and dad's and aren't even out of school yet, judging by how naive you post is.

And where in there did it say that Bendis, and Bendis alone, approved his pitch/idea? I believe it was Quesada that approved it, with the other writers/artists really getting BEHIND the idea.
Bendis not only approved it, he called his butt buddy, Mark Millar, who also gave his approval. Bendis is clearly the ring leader at Marvel, and whatever he likes, Quesada is quick to approve, regardless of how bad the idea is. That's just a fact.

If you want to make it look like Dan Slott is riding the coat tails of another writer to get ahead, hey, that's just fantastic and all that good stuff. But you really look ignorant by putting it that way, and it's also why a fair poster like Elijya had to get a little bit cross with you...ignorance is bliss, Mr. Sin Eater.
Well, you don't appear to be the sharpest tool in the shed, so I'll let you know if I care about your assessments.

And Bendis is the only writer and Marvel is the only company that writes for the trade paper back, huh? I mean DC and other writers such as Geoff Johns and Frank Miller aren't writing for the trade paper back? Hmm? You know that the trade paper back is a trend, right? That it caught on because Marvel and DC...and other companies...can get they're graphic novels placed in BOOK STORES, instead of just COMIC BOOK STORES...which can bring new fans to the table and attract new readers to the comics. But, hey, you'd rather look at it in the negative light. Don't blame ya there, Mr. Sin Eater. But when you go bashing a writer for something, make sure he's the ONLY one who does it...and not the entire comic book industry who's just trying to do GOOD BUSINESS.
See, here's another example of your shortcomings in the comprehension area. Wasn't my point that "Bendis and his writing for the trade has hurt the industry and monthy issues"? How did you mix that up to mean "Bendis is the only person who writes for the trade because he didn't influence the industry and cause others to start doing it all the time"?
Seriously, do you read or just rant while trying to make brownie points with a comic writer who really could give a damn about anything to do with you other than you lining his pocket with royalties from the trade paperback program that is killing the monthly industry. (mostly thanks to Bendis...er...excuse me...BENDIS!)
