David Wise or Steve Murphy?

The reason I am comparing these two is they both primarily wrote for a TMNT universe that was somewhat similar and shared a view of lots of mutants that co-existed with the Turtles.

Overall, who do you think was the better writer for the Turtles?

As much as I enjoyed the Archie series, I honestly think I prefer David Wise. Say what you will, this man knew how to writer clever banter between the Turtles, the Channel 6 news crew, and Shredder/Krang/Bebop/Rocksteady. He made me laugh. His plots was so absurd that they entertained me because they were so ridiculous.

Lastly Murphy's political agenda of shoving Captain Planet messages down our throats got old very quickly. Although when the Archie series really did kick off, it got really good.

I honestly like both, but I give the slight edge to David Wise.
