My Take
Marv Wolfman is one of comics' quiet architects. People know Blade from the movies, but fewer realize Wolfman co-created him, or that he wrote the genre-defining Crisis on Infinite Earths and The New Teen Titans. What impresses me is that he built worlds with words rather than pencils, shaping the emotional core of entire universes. His Eisner Hall of Fame induction feels overdue rather than generous. I have deep respect for storytellers who work behind the art, the ones whose names readers should know but often don't. Wolfman's influence on modern superhero fiction is enormous and easy to underestimate.
