And He Said He Didn't Know What He Was Doing

Earlier this week ComicBookResources.com ran Ryan Ingram's recap of the "Superman: The Post-Crisis Era" panel held July 19 at Comic-Con.

Panelists included names familiar to Superman fans of the late 80s and early 90s, including Jon Bogdanove, Mike Carlin, Jerry Ordway, George Pérez, Louise Simonson, Marv Wolfman, and most notably Dan Jurgens. I say that Jurgens was most notable because during the panel he said this:

"Anybody that looks at [Booster Gold Volume 1] will see the work of somebody who really didn't know what he was doing, who was kind of learning on the job."

That sounds pretty humble for someone who has created a character still around largely unchanged today. How many people can say that the work they did as a novice inspired others for the next 30 years? We should all be so lucky!

Thanks for the mistakes, Dan.
