Grimm: I understand what you mean, but I tried that with the "broken glass" (or whatever it was called) story, and it had a nice start, but failed miserably. I guess many are interested into the Vanguard characters, and I understand, for example, that Danny, altough maybe now is tired of writing, expressed clearly that he has still things to tell about his character, so why don't give the possibility?
Also, I think it's an interesting experiment to see if we can let a universe survive more than the four years that was the lifespan of the previous (MBL-TOMB) universe.
Sammitch: frankly, I am not interested in Vanguard per se, and I would prefer to create a team with another name. I just want to keep the same universe, to let the characters survive with their story intact (or altered) if the writers of such characters wants to continue to tell things about them. The name of the team for me it is not important, just I miss the fun of round robin and want to see if there is a way to bring back the fun.
In general: re-starting when important things like Manhattan and other stuff have not been solved "by writing", just sayng that they HAVE BEEN resolved off screen, it's a way to say that past continuity MUST not be the main issue of this Universe.
Looking at the future and not at the past should be what drives us, else we would fail to attract new writers, and, most important, if new writers come, they must feel able to manage freely the stuff of the story.
