I listed seven possibilities, but definitely pick others.

I am admittedly not a big comic book reader.

I went with Wolfman from the list.

Other Favorites not listed.

Doug Moench( Early Moon Knight)

Walt Simonson. I loved how he did Thor

I am an unapologetic Alan Moore fanboy.  His Swamp Thing run is perhaps the pinnacle of comic story telling.  Miracle Man, Watchmen,  and his America' Best line of comics were amazing.

From Hell actually gave me nightmares. 

And his new series, Providence, is his take on the life of Lovecraft.  This is going to be great!
  

I am scary, very, very scary.

It's hard for me to pick a favorite.  I really like John Byrne, Frank Miller (his older stuff), and Brian Michael Bendis.

But Bill Willingham is probably my favorite.

Peter David is great.  His run on Hulk and X-Factor are amazing.

Brian Michael Bendis and Ultimate Spider Man turned me into a kid again, awaiting each issue, and I've never been a huge spidey fan.

Garth Ennis and his "Preacher" is one of the greatest comic book series I've ever read.

I voted Other, even though I like Roy Thomas because I wanted to make sure I got Doug Moench in there as well.
I like many things Alan Moore did, but I have a hard time forgetting that Watchmen basically made me give up reading comics for nearly twenty years.

Had to go with Marv. Teen Titans was the first comic I had an actual, mailed to my house, subscription to back in the 1980's. I really enjoyed his work.
