Also I don't say any of this as someone who considers to be MJ's bighgest fan or anything. I saw her artwork back when she was active, I liked it, I didn't care too much for the Alex/Edd pairing but Alex was mildly interesting to me on her own despite some flaws that could have been tweakd to make her better. I never obsessed over her the way the rest of the fandom apparenly did. But Alex did catch my attention mainly because MJ was so good at drawing the style. If she had been an artist of less talent I wouldn't have even bothered to look at her stuff (like I do most OC's which I ignore due to lack of creativity and artistic talent). MJ only stood out to me due to her capturing the style so perfectly--it wasn't really her OC. and from what I remember, she barely drew Alex.

Anyway all my opinions are based clearly from a critical standpoint. I don't think Alex is the worst OC ever (I;ve seen far worse in this fandom) but she's also not the most perfect like some die-hard Alex fans profess. I just happened to enjoy MJ's art when she was around and that's all. I wish her the best of luck in her future projects.
