    I'll miss him at DC. Then again, the way he kept on being sidelined in recent years makes this move not especially surprising.

    I'm also pretty much done with DC at this point. I had some hype of...

    Eh. New 52 sales were already tanking when it came out. It also wasn't anything spectacular; but for what it was (a filler while DC moved cross country), it wasn't bad.
  3. I'll only disagree with you on one thing: your...

    I'll only disagree with you on one thing: your assertion that the current timeline is any more fake than the original one was. I'm a big fan of Hypertime and its assertion that, in the truest sense,...

    I know. Two appearances out of 57 issues, both times clearly being presented strictly as honorary members, is effectively nothing; they're involvement with the 1940s version of the JSA can safely be...
  5. I didn't actually correct you; you were correct...

    I didn't actually correct you; you were correct in what you said. I just elaborated on it a bit.

    Now, I don't agree that Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Green Arrow, and Robin should be...

    We've got one minor bit of clarification: Helena's backstory is now officially not part of the New Golden Age timeline; it now exists only in Hypertime, and impacts the present only through Helena's...

    Arguably, putting them in the roster was a retcon* : the original team's whole concept was to “give the others a chance to shine”.

    * though not a blatant retcon, in that it was done by adding to...

    Roy Thomas wanted to put every Golden Age character on Earth Two, regardless of which Earth they had previously been assigned to. Sometimes Editorial or their foot down and said no (Captain Marvel,...

    Well, we do have a Justice Society Dark retconned into the New Golden Age history; and Zatara has been confirmed on its roster.

    Merging any of the Squadron Supreme with their DC counterparts is just cheating, given that the Squadron Supreme is the Justice League, or as close to them as copyright laws will allow Marvel to get....

    There's already an Earth for that sort of thing. The official one (Earth 32) features a Batman/Green Lantern and a Superman/Martian Manhunter; but I don't see why there couldn't be others that go...

    It is. Dark Crisis: Big Bang, the one-shot that gave us a tour of the newly expanded Multiverse, identifies Earth 2 as the New 52 Earth 2. That said, the New 52 Earth 2 underwent a couple of drastic...

    I know. She's not the one I'm asking about; I'm asking about the one from New 52's Earth 2. I know where she was when Earth 2: Society ended; but I don't know if that's still how things are on Earth...

    And yet, here we are with both — or all three, depending on what the status of the current Earth 2 is: is that Earth's Helena going by Huntress, or is she Batman as she was at the end of Earth 2:...

    They didn't kill Bertinelli off-camera; they retconned her to have never existed in the first place, always having been an alias for Wayne. Not sure if that's better or worse.

    Neither version got a solo series: the pre-Crisis one got solo stories in books headed by other leads (mainly Wonder Woman), while the New 52 one shared the title with Power Girl.

    Anyway, I'm...

    Actually, there's some question as to whether Stargirl's Earth 2 existed before the Crisis. The idea is that the Crisis rewrote Earth 2, producing Stargirl; and that the Jay that had interacted with...

    Getting back to the comics:

    I'm tired of Barry having a dead mom. He went all through the Silver and Bronze Ages, from his creation in the 1950s to his death in the Crisis on Infinite Earths,...

    I started in 1985, with my earliest memories being the issue of New Titans where Dick retired the Robin identity (and, over in Batman, passed it on to a new kid named Jason Todd) and Wally left the...

    The thing is, there is no “look in at point A, them look in again at point B”. We got a consideration stream of stories all the way from Tim's origin to the end of Red Robin. There were no...

    Your point?

    EDIT: I also note that you've not addressed anything else I said.

    Courtney isn't a Knight. And Ascended's line about her being “close enough (a friend of the family?)” doesn't actually have anything to it. Courtney had even less of a connection to the Knights than...

    A. No, I don't.
    B. It's still a change that came totally out of the blue, completely counter to everything previously established about the character.

    Yeah; the people who pay money to buy the product (or don't, if they don't like it) are definitely the problem. </sarcasm>
