What I find so fascinating is just how many folks discuss John Byrne. There are threads dedicated to him at a number of boards including here and at Imwank. say what you want about the guy, but we all love tallking about him, his projects, his views, his behavior, etc.
Well, everyone loves to slow down and check out a good car wreck... but given that there's really only about a dozen regular contributors to this thread, I'd keep the number of people talking about him in perspective.
