Does anyone know the true story of why Byrne left SUPERMAN? His runs never seem to end "properly". Except, I guess, his X-Men run. But, he quit West Coast Avengers almost immediately (still don't know why) and for rebooting the most important comic book character ever, he only stayed...what...two years?



but in that two year period, he wrote and drew two monthly Superman books, then took over writing duties on the third book as well. he did a shitload of Superman stories in that two year period.


Any particular reason for hijacking a topic about Shooter's editorial reign at Marvel, to talk for several pages about Byrne's work at DC, and constantly changing the title to "Marvel in the 80's" ?

A better alternative might be to talk in this topic about, y'know, stuff created at Marvel under Jim Shooter here. And create a separate topic to talk about Byrne's work at DC.

Just sayin'.
