My Take

Dan DiDio fascinates me as a man who steered a universe rather than drew it. As co-publisher of DC Comics alongside Jim Lee from 2010 to 2020, he held the wheel of the line where Batman and Superman live, a job I can barely imagine without feeling the pressure. Named Wizard magazine's first-ever Man of the Year in 2003, he clearly left a mark. In a fandom as passionate as comics, that kind of authority invites both devotion and backlash, which to me only proves how seriously he carried the weight of those stories. I have a soft spot for the editorial souls behind beloved work, and he is a striking example.
