Unified Byrne Theory

Bendisboarders debate John Byrne's shortcomings.

Re: You Know What's Wrong With John Byrne? His Writing

and the fact that he has internet access.

And:

You know what I noticed about Byrne? He's a good comic writer, but not a good comic writer and storyteller. Let me explain. I'm getting back issues of his Namor, Fantastic Four, and some of his other work. While Byrne is actually a very nice and funny guy, I have to say, there's something about his dialogue that's just, well, off. It seems kind of unnatural and false.

Somewhere on the internet, John Byrne is registering you on his message board for the specific purpose of banning you.

And does a Bendisboarder finally come up with a Unified Byrne Theory that explains everything?

I am convinced that the failure of Danger Unlimited in what drove him to suck. It was the last good thing he did. Maybe the best thing he did. And it was his 1st comic to fail. Everything before it is classic. Everything after stinks. It's failure stunted his growth.
