the crops on the digital picture have the 18-55 superior over the lower numbers. at 55 the 18-55 IS is worse, but that's it. certainly some of it is due to the CA being so strong on 17-85 that it makes the lens blurrier uncorrected.
i think you've got the lenses confused.If we talk about price though, clearly the 18-55 is better bang for the buck at $89
