Jonathan Hickman supports Brad Meltzer

The writer who's worked on Fantastic Four in recent years has some pretty lousy taste in other writers:

Hey, hey! The wonderful @bradmeltzer's new book is out today. THE FIFTH ASSASSIN amazon.com/The-Fifth-Assa…
— JonathanHickman (@JHickman) January 15, 2013

If he's going to support the author whose most notorious work in comics was the Identity Crisis screed, then that's all the more reason to be very careful about trying out anything he himself has written.

Update: and Hickman's not the only one who's fawning and promoting Meltzer's books. Here's 2 others:

My good pal @bradmeltzer's new book is out :) tinyurl.com/cjaanw9

My friend @bradmeltzer has a new book out today. I look forward to reading this... amazon.com/The-Fifth-Assa…

No surprise that Johns is paying lip service to that awful writer who's never apologized for what he did. As for Williams, this only tells a bit more about what could be wrong with how he manages his business too.
