Green Lantern (Ron Marz) - In 1993, DC decided that a radical alteration to one of their primary characters, Green Lantern Hal Jordan, was due. To accomplish this, they hired Ron Marz, who had written a highly successful run of the Silver Surfer at Marvel. In the Emerald Twilight storyline, Hal Jordan was driven mad and became the cosmic villain Parallax, while struggling young graphic artist Kyle Rayner became Green Lantern. Joined by artists like Darryl Banks and Paul Pelletier, Marz's controversial run sparked outrage and debate among new readers and longtime fans alike, and incidentally, great sales. Attachment: match15.jpg Nightwing (Dixon and McDaniel)- After decades as Batman's partner, Robin, and many years as leader of the Teen Titans, Dick Grayson finally achieved his own ongoing series. Helmed by veteran Bat-writer Chuck Dixon and artist Scott McDaniel, the book received critical and sales success, and as the lone hero in corrupt Bludhaven, Nightwing became on e of DC's most popular characters.

Nightwing wins due to not being the result of a silly stunt.

I really like Kyle Rayner and that run, but the art of McDaniel putd ol' Nightwing on top.

This is like choosing between Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis.

Nightwing. I loved McDaniel's art on Nightwing (His art took a nosedive since Superman though). Great stories from Dixon, I love that run. Their last issue together was pretty poor though (Nightwing 40 I think)

Nightwing was great when it started out. Marz on GL, not so much.

Like Dixon, like McDaniel. Nightwing=good.
Like Pelletier. Like Marz now, but then? Not so much. He sucked until he got to Crossgen. Never cared for Darryl Banks. Crab Face Guy=meh.

In wrestling parlance, this would be called a "squash."
Nightwing wins.
