Re: Loved his charcter designs..
While I like a lot of current artists, Byrne for me still does the best Thing, Doom, and Captain America.
Byrne recently said on his board that a lot of stuff Marvel puts out makes his skin crawl, and even if they threw tons of cash at him, and let him do whatever he wanted, he still wouldn't take them up on it because he feels working for them would seem like he was giving Quesada/Bendis/Millar, etc. his approval.
