New Brevoort Formspring

In a previous response you wrote that Stan Lee is "...certainly the most well-known comic book creator, the person that somebody from outside of our industry is most likely to recognize." I'm a huge Stan Lee fan (meeting him oh so briefly at Boston Comic Con back in August was a major bucket list moment) but who would you consider to be the second most well-known comic book creator? Who would you pick as the next most recognizable "somebody from outside our industry" alive and/or passed?

That’s a very good question. These days, Joe Quesada maybe.
Dude! Sergio Aragonés!
Sorry guys, it would have to be Frank Miller.
Niel Gaiman surely would be up there
Neil Gaiman seems like the right answer, actually.

  I think Neil would rather be recognized as “somebody from outside our industry”.

  Thank You and there is no need to agree between friends, I know it is not that popular an opinion as most people do like...

  While we do not agree on Neil, I still think you are a friend. But I do not agree.
