He wrote (at least) Bishop's solo mini-series, and I think two X.S.E. series. I think that means he created Shard and Mountjoy.<br /><br />I never understood when the X-office would do that -- give a mini to someone who wasn't really identified with the line in general, never mind the character in question. It was the same when Howard Mackie was the go-to guy for solo Gambit and Rogue action, even before he was part of the X-office on <i>X-Factor</i>.<br /><br />Anyway, I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing -- it just strikes me as odd.Mattnoreply@blogger.com
