Okay, okay, I can buy that. But... what if a writer wants to make an out of continuity story in the main books? Can he do it or is that a sin?




You mean like a few months ago when Gibbons and Weeks told an out of continuity Captain America story in the main book that MAY or may NOT have happened?

It's all in the execution...

So, the works that don't respect continuity are outside of it. If there's a run that lasts three years and it doesn't respect continuity, you may ignore it. You're free to do so.




Byrne's about to do it to Acurdi's Doom Patrol...

Just like the above reply hangs on the execution, this one hangs on the NEED for ignoring the stories.

Superman doesn't need to have his current continuity ignored.

The Doom Patrol doesn't have that much of a problem because their connection to the Post Crisis DC U has been extremely thin (in some places more than in others).

And you're not? No, seriously, don't you consider what you do whinning? Sure, it's for a different reason... but it's still whinning. I'm whinning too, to an extent. You whine in monumental scales. How can you complain about someone whinning when you're doing the same thing, and worst? Because you think you're right? Guess what; everyone thinks they're right. Me included. Waid included.




Yes, but you only think you're right while I know I'm right

Just like the first reply was about execution and the second one was about need, this one is about conviction


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