Quote: NO!!!!!!!! It can be connected. It can also not be connected. A whole 30 issue run can be connected while the next 40 issue run can not be connected. It's up to the writer. The writer's purpose is telling good stories.
And that happens all the time without continuity being doomed and gloom and ignored.
JMS does it in Spider-Man.
He respects what came before, doesn't ignore it, doesn't address it and doesn't invalidate it.
You don't like writers like JMS and Geoff Johns, who respect continuity by using it and by not using it.
You prefer writers like Morrison and Waid who make a big deal about who continuity has reached out from comic books and is chooking the creativety out of them making it so they can't breath.
Well, choke away I say. If these writers can't produce good stories using continuity (or not using it ) then they should look for work elsewhere...
Comics are like a Rorschach test; everyone has a different opinion on what they are and can be...
