worst idea in comics:
letting Joe Quesada be Editor-In-Chief
i believe many will agree with me
I'll second that.
But there have been quite a few. For me, the dumbest ideas in comics for Marvel (in no particular order) are:
1. Making Peter Parker a clone and Ben Reilly the orginal Spider-Man
2. Retconning it so Xorn was never Magneto.
3. The wedding of Black Panther and Storm--because it will clearly fall apart in the next few years.
4. Kevin's Smith's the Evil That Men Do which had the Black Cat origins involve date rape.
5. A three way tie in [BLACKOUT]Sins Past[/BLACKOUT], The Other: Evolve or Die, and way Peter publicly revealed his he was Spider-Man.
6. Avengers: Dissasembled (which has been the cause of all the insanity so far in Marvel, right up to Civil War) as well as Hawkeye's death and turning Scarlet Witch into an all-powerful psycho.
7. Rebooting the Spider-Man titles.
8. Wolverine remembering his past.
9. Heroes Reborn, and
10. ROB "I can't draw feet to save my life, but I can draw shoulder pads and BFGs" LIEFELD!
The dumbest ideas for DC are:
1. Turning Hal Jordan into a villain, then into the Spectre before deciding to bring him back.
2. War Crimes--which made Leslie Thompkins guilty of manslughter with regards to the Spoiler's death.
3. The return of Jason Todd as a Punisher wanna-be.
4. Bruce Jones on Nightwing.
5. Hush--the character, not the Loeb 12-parter (although the last issue sucked) and especially when Leibermen used him.
6. Zero Hour--which has proven to be completely pointless.
7. The Mary-sue known as Taranula.
8. Killing off Ra's al Ghul and replacing him with Nyssa.
9. The Last Laugh. And finally...
10. The now evil Superboy Prime and his "Retcon Punch."
