Sorry to break it to you, but considering that comics in the past four years have been writen in a 60's style there's nothing wrong with wanting things to continue from where they left off int he 80's and 90's since those comics were superior to the crap that's been going on lately.

Sales in the Superman comics are in the toilet for a reason and that reason has nothing to do with what John Byrne did and everything to do with what Eddie Berganza has been doing.

Yet peoplelike you have hard time understanding that, so instead of accepting things they blame something that happened 17 years ago.

And I do like Golden Age writing, it was more mature than the crap you keep hoping comes back.

Do yourself a favor, learn more about the medium before you hold the SA in the reverence that you do.

And yes, you can get long runs in Elseworlds... John Byrne proved it with not one, not two but THREE continuing Generations sagas.

Others did it before with two Kamandi Elseworlds projects that were related to each other, Kamandi At Earth's End and Superman At Earth's End.

And in 94 DC did a two parter Elseworlds story in the Superboy and Adventures of Superman Annuals.

That ignorant writers and readers choose to ignore these facts doesn't mean that such thing have never happened, it just means they're ignorant.

And what the hell is normal comic books?

How do you define normal comic books?

Don't answer, that was a rethorical, I already know what your definition of a comic book is...

And my "intolerance" is the end resule of readers like you bashing and insulting and attacking the best attributes in comics with their

it's happened before, it'll happen again

comics were before before Crisis

John Byrne's the devil

John Byrne killed Superman

Superman died in Man of Steel

BRING back Kara Zor-El!!

Superman can't be the only Kryptonian, I want more, more, more

and anyone that disagrees with the above is wrong".

Well, I disagree with the above and am not wrong, how about that?

People that want the above are stuck in the past and refuse to see that growth and change in comics is a good thing.

CHANGING things so they're the same as they were before is NOT change, is dragging the past forward to please the few.

Comics are like a Rorschach test; everyone has a different opinion on what they are and can be...
