    Triangle-era Superman is the definitive Superman for me. Metropolis felt real, the Planet felt real, Lois and Clark's relationship felt real. Superman could literally move mountains and tank H-bombs but he wasn't completely invincible. And it gave birth to the PAD Supergirl.

    I’m a diehard Bronze Age Superman guy. That’s my favorite era & that’s my definitive Superman. However, I loved the triangle era. Honestly the entire period from 1986 -1993 had a tremendous energy. Just great stories. Great art. I was able to completely immerse myself in this new universe. The creators seemed confident in moving forward & made few poor moves. After Superman came back from the dead, I did feel like they were losing steam. Pursing period to me.

    I sometimes wonder if lack of social media helped. It seems to highlight the negative points. Not just in comics but everything. I’d think it would be easier to create stories without so much fan feedback. Maybe they don’t pay attention. What do I know!

    Sadly, I really feel that remains the best Supergirl.

    Gave us great stories.
    The problem is that:
    -Need to follow and develop Byrneman, with a lesser mythos and roge gallery(I think Loeb/Kelly suffer that too)
    -90s vices slowly affected the character
    -too much status quo chances in a short time.
    Before Byrne , the character was on a identity crisis (not as bad as the 40s) after TE the books still worked

    What made the mythos lesser?
