Good artists who can't write for shit

Case in point, Tsutomu Nihei. The man can draw, and Blame!'s plotless fetchquest of a story was perfect for what it was, but there ought to be some sort of law against him trying to write his own story. Biomega is the most nonsensical, schizophrenically plotted thing allegedly intended to make sense I've ever seen. I honestly suspect he just took two unrelated stories, and messily spliced them together end to end and called it a day. Knights of Sydonia is moderately better in the writing department, but the art took a corresponding hit.

Are there any other good examples of this?

    I can think of examples of people who can't write OR draw...

    Fortunately, this isn't usually a problem, since artists don't have to write the stories they draw.

    Unfortunately, when they're paired with a writer who can't write for shit, that causes some problems.

    I'd like to say Frank Miller, but I don't know if he actually draws.
