Quote: Prometheus said:As did, I'm sure, Siegel and Shuster, Julie Schwartz, Carmine Infantino, and, pretty much every other editorial staff of every era in DC Comics history.
No.
Prior to Schwartz/Infantino (and even sometimes DURING the Schwartz/Infantino era), DC would often tell fans who were concerned with continuity that "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds," and explain that they were would remake continuity as they saw fit from year to year, or even issue to issue, if they thought it would serve the story.
Quote: r3x29yz4a said:I remember Zero Hour and I also remember that it took a month and I could afford it easier at 12 than IC at 24. Also the crossovers were more fun (time travelling and different versions of reality).
Fair enough. But then you probably also remember DC promising us that "zero hour" continuity would be "official" continuity from that point forward and, quickly (see, eg, "the Kingdom") it wasn't.
