My comic store owner’s name is Mike. Mike picks most of my comics. See, I only follow four or five books at any given time, so I rely on Mike to bulk up my picks each week and find stuff that’ll interest me. He knows my preference for books with no continuity, so his recommendations often lean toward miniseries and contained arcs. They also lean, shockingly, toward “stuff Mike likes“.
As a result of that, I seem to be reading a lot of the UK Trio lately– Ellis, Ennis, and Morrison. Mike likes ‘em, and Mike picks my comics, so they end up in my comic bag most weeks. They’re all very good writers, though I find they can get a bit caught up in their heads from time to time. Still, I can’t really put my finger on much of their work that I’d call “bad”, so I’m happy to keep accepting recommendations for their stuff.
