Writing books is a lot different than writing comic books.

It doesn't have to be. Those guys come up with really cool scenarios. I can picture the whole lay out of em' in my head.

Okay, let me make that a bit clear. If I was to convert Fight Club, Choke, or American Psycho to comic form, I have a clear image of how it would be. Stories of that calibur I see them doing just fine on comic panels.
I'd love to write, but let's think realistically.

I'd like to see either do screenwriting first, since that's a little bit more like comic scripting.
I dunno, I'm just not super big on the novelists writing comics thing. It's been tried before with less than stellar results. I'm also not as big a fan of Palahniuk as you.
Besides...one Ellis in comics is enough.

True. They hit a foul with Rucka IMO. But I'd still like to see it happen if only once in a graphic novel or something.

Rucka stinks. Queen & Country may be good I don't know, but everything else he's done for Dc atleast has been crap. I liked his ideas for the Olympian gods, but it was poorly executed.

I don't think he's horrible....but the ending of his run on 'Tec left a really bad taste in my mouth. That whole Sasha thing was just terrible.

I read his novel "Finder" and like dit. I just don't think he writes comics well. I have read good issues by him. But nothing good enough for me to buy for his name alone. and he has driven me off a few things.
Aah, one of those good things was Wonder Woman: Hiketia.....that was a longer story and pretty good. That is one of the exceptions.

Yeah, but "Different Nom De Plumes" would be kind of long, and difficult to fit on covers and in the credit boxes.

Shorten Different Nom De Plumes, like how Stanley Martin Lieber became Stan Lee. Have him write under Diff Plumey.
Thing is- I can’t spell or type. I spell so badly my spell check doesn’t even know what I was trying to spell. And I have five Eisners HAHAHAHHA!!

Bring an umbrella!
Dan Simmons is another person I'd like to read in comic book form.
Even someone like Jeffrey Archer wouldn't be bad.
