johns is a cool guy. im a big fan of his writing, but more so, his attitude.
i think he has a great handle on all of the character's he's penned in the past few years, and i also think the loyal fans of each, as well as new fans jumping on, would tend to agree.
he has a real love for the characters and a real understanding of their fans -- never trying to say "my way is the way" as some writers often do.
rather, he's concise -- efficiently characterizing of an individual who has been through years and years (and bogs) of continuity. then, he churns out something that not only makes sense, but appeals to every type of fan (or as many as possible).
similar to how paul dini and bruce timm streamlined the animated universes, in my opinion.
he's the perfect guy for this project.
