I'm Not Mister Mxypltk said: Another hipocrisy: it's in continuity but you want it to be ignored. It's strongly tied to continuity. This brings me back to the topic of your gigantic ego: you only support an absolute continuity when it's about things you enjoy
Just because something isn't brought up doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Writers can ignore what Loeb did but not invalidate it, which are two different things.
It's one thing to retroactively say that Krypton was never an alien world (as Waid is doing now) and it's another to just not use Clark as a football player or make references to it (as Loeb did in For All Seasons).
Waid is making changes out of ego. Loeb didn't use that idea just because he didn't like it, but he didn't go out of his way to say it never happened.
Comics are like a Rorschach test; everyone has a different opinion on what they are and can be...
