Yeah, he was definitely one of the key architects behind the 90's-era Superman books, along with Jerry Ordway, Louise Simonson, and a handful of others.
One thing I really liked about Jurgens and Ordway was that, kinda like John Byrne before them, they wrote AND penciled many of the Superman books that they were involved in.

As excited as I am about Jurgens being involved, I would have preferred Grant Morrison to write that issue. Then again, I can't be too upset, because out of all the key Superman writers of the past few decades, I'd prefer Jurgens being involved over some of the others, like Jeff Loeb, Joe Kelly, Geoff Johns, or James Robinson. Those guys wrote some good (along with some bad, lol) Superman stories, but I think that Jurgens is definitely the best choice (well, besides Morrison).
