TODAY'S TOSS-UP (6/14):

Who's rendition of Daredevil do you prefer, Frank Miller's or John Byrne's?

I'll go with JB's, even though when I think of Daredevil, I see Miller's or JRjr's.

Gotta go with Frank Miller - like JB and the Fantastic Four or Simonson and Thor, Miller's Daredevil is the definitive version.

I don't think Daredevil is a good match for JB. John Byrne is the quintessential superhero artist - Superman, X-Men, Fantastic Four, Captain America, Wonder Woman, etc. But Daredevil is more of a pulp fiction hero than a classic superhero. His stories are more suited to a darker, grittier style of art than JB employs.

And that's no knock on either the artist or the character. Just saying that not every character is a good fit for any artist, even one as accomplished and skilled as our esteemed host.
