What would it be? More New Gods from Kirby? Another 20 issue run by Barry Smith on Conan? Or maybe Frank Frazetta drawing a big run on Conan?
Alex Toth drawing Fantastic Four? Jim Lee drawing the entirety of Grant Morrison's X-Men run? Steve Ditko finishing his Amazing Spider-Man run the way he wanted?
The sky's the limit!

I wish Steve Gerber had gotten a much longer run on Howard the Duck. I'd like to see where he would've gone with Howard and Bev into the 80's.

For me, I think Jack Kirby and Joe Sinnott doing a Post-Apocalyptic Sword & Sorcery comic in the vein of Masters of the Universe or Thundarr the Barbarian. I'd want him to invent his own characters and not be confined by the mythology created by other people.
A very close runner up would be more Fourth World and more of Jack's Atlas character created for First Issue Special.

I'd let the genie decide between: Any single issue from the tail end of Kirby's envisioned New Gods run. I don't need the rest for context; just a random issue would do. Subwish: Any single issue from Kirby's Marvel New Gods run. The reportedly mooted Alan Moore-John Byrne Superman collaboration. Byrne and Claremont's X-MEN #150 Andy Helfer and Kyle Baker's THE SHADOW 20-25 Some kind of Frankenstein ideal MAD in full color that accommodates all the talent from across the years and makes Harvey Kurtzman and Al Feldstein rich

Hanzo the Razor wrote: Steve Ditko finishing his Amazing Spider-Man run the way he wanted? Yes, and the series ending with that. Jack Kirby doing what he wanted with The Fantastic Four for as long as he wanted, with the Fourth World stuff and everything. Stan Lee keeping the Marvel Pop Art Productions logo and continuing to call comics "pop art books". DC keeping their chequerboard trade dress, as well as their talent. And Ditko still being alive and continuing the 32s series through his 90s (and 100s).

This genie is getting a little too powerful. He may turn on us and make things besides comics.

An Invaders series written by Roy Thomas and drawn by early eighties era John Byrne A Mighty Crusaders series written by Chris Claremont and drawn by JB The series Byrne is doing now on his website is pretty close to what I'd have asked the fat fuck of a genie for Maybe Neal Adams drawing every comic I ever bought or read.

I’d probably wish that all comics work were creator owned by the writers and artists that originally worked on them, and that those series ended when one of them left the book. We’d have a lot less Batman and X-Men, but probably a lot more cooler shit.
