Quote: ManofTheAtom said: They're told that it ended in the 70's (or 80's, depending on your perspective) and they go on 17 year long rants about how John Byrne killed Superman and there not being super pets in the comics prevent them from having fun reading them.
Then YOU are told the Jurgens era ended in the 90's, and you go on who knows how many years old rants about how Mark Waid killing Superman and how there isn't enough continuity nowadays which prevents you from having any fun. Why can't you see that you're doing the EXACT SAME THING you despise?!
Quote:
Supergirl merging with Linda.
Superboy and Steel becoming part of the DC Universe.
The Legion being rebooted RIGHT with the JLA instead of an anomaly being their inspiration.
Comics like Ressurection Man and Hitman.
Starman.
Kyle Rayner.
Hal as Parallax.
Wally West and Linda Park getting married.
I OBVIOUSLY meant in the Superman comics! Superboy and Steel came in '93.
Quote: Lex becoming younger after making a deal with the devil.
Return to the status quo. The fall of Luthor was change and growth. The return was the opposite. The deal with the devil was a half arsed explanation that was barely mentioned ever again.
Quote: Lex becoming a father.
1 change.
Quote: Lex getting married
That was undone before the Jurgens era was over.
Quote: Lex running for President.
After 99, I think. And if it did happen in 99, I mean in the Jurgens era. That's what we were talking about, remember? You said the Jurgens era brought change and growth, and I said not in the last years. Fuck, you're not even paying attention.
Quote: Lucy having a son.
2 changes. 3 if you add Lana and Ron's relationship.
Quote: Lana having a son.
4 changes.
Quote: Lana getting married to Pete.
Happened before the period I'm referring too. Things started getting lame after Action #700.
Quote: And other stuff you probably don't care about or will debunk for "sucking"
In other words, nothing else. Four changes. Whoa. If the Jurgens era had continued we'd probably have one more by now, maybe two!!!
