    I've read Boxers & Saints and part of Future State: Batman/Superman. They are middling and bad, respectively.
    What's his best work?

      American Born Chinese and Boxers and Saints are both really good

        No. I already said I found it middling.

              Nah, you're just doing the standard Cinemaphilentrarian dance. Like clockwork, no matter who a thread is about there will be pseuds falling over themselves to call them mid because they think it makes them look smart. You've earned this (You), though, so good job.

                If I wanted to look smart, I wouldn't even bother with funny books.

      >reading anything Future State
      Read his actual run of Batman/Superman, it's genuinely great and fun with some very interesting concepts and reimaginings.

        Not enough people talk about pic related, would really like to see a continuation with that Shazam tease at the end.

        This BETTER be good.

          It's good, and the Annual where the story ends takes advantage of the comic book medium, that's always fun.

    He should be making more graphic novels and less capeshit.

      He wrote a non-capeshit graphic novel that came out today.

    Wrote two decent books (three I guess if you don't count Boxers and Saints as one book) then authored some beautifully illustrated but otherwise truly dogshit ATLA fan fiction. Forklift my fricking ass, Yang

    New Super-Man is the best thing he's written and it's horrendously overrated. His ATLA comics are fricking awful with not only bad plots but destroying two couples just because he waifugayged Suki but self-inserted as Zuko.

    Is he the writer on those Avatar comics?
    He made Zuko a gay and Mai insufferable, but Zuki is absolutely based so it evens out

    American born Chinese is his best work
    New Superman and Klan were boring
