Quote: ManofTheAtom said: The only reason he has so many titles in the first place was to expand on that one character.
Even in the Bronze Age, when someone wanted to tell a story about the Earth 2 Superman, they placed an advisory at the start of it.
"This is not about the Clark Kent of Earth 1 that works at WGBS, this is about the Clark Kent of Earth 2 that works at the Daily Star".
There's never been such a thing as a monthly Superman comics that was exclusively published for an alternate reality Superman.
There were exceptions made back then solely because the extra Superman existed.
He doesn't exist now, so he doesn't need to invade the one, true Superman's comics every now and then.
That has nothing to do with what I said. That's not even relevant. Just because it hasn't been done or it was intended one way originally it doesn't mean it should happen. That's how progress happens, you know.
Quote: ManofTheAtom said:Now the BR Superman can have his own series independant of the other three titles...
That's all I'm saying. Is it that much of a stretch to think that each title should be completely independent from the other, with a different version of Superman each so everybody gets what they want instead of one sector of fandom only? I insist: you get one Flash title, one JSA title, one Titans title. Why can't you get one Superman title?
(what comes next is completely separate from what I said before, so don't answer that part only thinking you're answering to the whole message)
The only reason DC publishes more than one Superman title is because the character is rentable. I think that should be taken advantage of. The linkage thing during the Jurgens years is one example of how to take advantage of the multiple titles that worked for a long time and stayed even longer.
