Yep, not that I mind her stuff but she was a popular writer (in her area) before she approached Marvel and they gave her a shot. Basically Marvel seems to think that anyone who writes books automatically gives some prestige to the comic industry by working for them.

Think DC started it with Jodi Pidoult with Wonder woman. Can't stand wonder woman, so can't comment on her as a comic writer.

I've not read Liu's novels (which appear to be popular for their type), but she had (probably still does) a Jubilee/Wolverine fansite that until recently had a lot of fanfic on it. A few months before it was announced that she would be working with Daniel Way for Marvel, she closed down the fanfic portion of her site.

I can never forgive her for her complicity in writing for Daken with Way. Aaarrrgghh!!!!

Well to be fair if Marvel offered me a job working in comics but the caveat was working with Way, I'd probably do it. After all it's a way to get your foot in the door if nothing else.

Can't quibble with that. After all, she's writing X-23 now and didn't she write a Black Widow story? From interviews she did with Way back during "Dark Wolverine", it appears that she was really gung-ho on Daken, but what else was she gonna say under those circumstances? I wonder what she really thinks of the character, and if she's really glad to be away from Daken now.

Liu's novel X Men Dark Mirror was good. I like it the best out of the handful of novels that are out about him. In it several of the X Men have their bodies switched, traded, and Wolverine's body is taken over by this ultra-tough, very savage woman. There's a scene with her (as Logan), and Jubilee that is so awful and heartbreaking I will never forget it!

I always heard that Dark Mirror was a good book.

Didn't read anything Liu wrote in novel form. Basically heard most of her stuff was like supernatural romance books anyway.

Only one woman i think is perfect for Logan: Betsy. She is a warrior like him. She is strong and indipendent. She is his right hand in X-Force. And most important like him, she passed through hell (if you have read Remender's incredible Uncanny X-Force run you know what i mean). So you understand my enthusiasm when i saw this preview:

I don't know where Remender will go with his story but if at the end he will bring Logan and Betsy together i will consider him one of my favorite writers of all time
