It was also weird how J. Michael Straczynski, who was hailed as a visionary creator at the time on par with Gene Roddenberry, kind of disappeared. Yes, he has been involved in things like Netflix's Sense 8, but even that was mostly credited to the Wachowskis.
- KingMob 8y agoJMS has also been heavily involved in comics. He wrote Spider-man for 6 years, had a stint on Superman, as well as many other projects. I don't recall him being hailed as a "visionary" for making B5, but looking back, some eps were pretty bad (the Jack the Ripper episode, for starters.) Some of his comic output was pretty uneven, too. I've only read Rising Stars and Midnight Nation, and while they both had interesting concepts, they also had serious flaws.
