Patrick King asks:

>>Could you site a couple of "for instances" where John D. tops McBain? I'm pretty sure I've never read any of them.<<

"A Key to the Suite" and "The Executioners" I believe are far and above any of the Ed McBain stuff. But if someone said to me, you can have all of the John D. MacDonald or all of the Ed McBain, I' go for the McBain.
