    90’s are my best period.
    Started with shocking events as death of superman, knightfall and emerald twilight and then build up solid premises for the future.
    Zero hour wasn’t the best event per se but was functional to make order in the DCU.
    After that we had Batfamily at his best, Flash family at his best, Legacy characters and order and logic in the continuity.

    1. 1970s simply for Justice League of America the satellite years (and there's lots more I loved this decade)
    2. 1980s for Legion of Superheroes, New Teen Titans, and JLI/JLA/JLE
    3. 1990s for Kingdom Come, The Long Halloween, Death and return of Superman, and Flash
    4. 2000s for Justice and JSA

    Well others have included other companies so I will include Marvel as well. While DC was killing it in the 90s on my favorite characters.....Marvel on the other hand was not so great during this same period with my favorite Marvel characters. Daredevil was extremely hit or miss during this time and Spider-Man was caught up in that convoluted clone mess. It would probably be easier to list the decades I enjoyed: 60's can't go wrong with the classics, 80s especially Daredevil was fantastic, 2000's again especially Daredevil fantastic. Current period I don't know where to classify, but it's the most Marvel I have ever read and I am loving MANY titles.

    Agreed. The 1980s were the era that opened with the introduction of Wolfman & Perez' The New Teen Titans, and ended with Burton's Batman proving that there was still an audience for big-budget superhero movies, and the first two Superman films hadn't been a fluke. In between, we got all kinds of great stuff:
    • All-Star Squadron
    • Perez' Wonder Woman
    • Infinity, Inc.
    • Miller's Dark Knight series
    • Booster Gold
    • The return of The Blue Beetle
    • Wolfman's Vigilante
    • The Wally West Flash
    • Checkmate
    • Hawkworld (the mini, not the on-going)
    • The Great Darkness Saga


    ...the list just goes on and on.

    This is always a hard question to answer. My first thought is the 1960s, but then I think of all the 1970s comics I bought. On the other hand, the 1940s were a great time for comics. And the 1950s get so little attention, but there's so many gems to be found there. And in actual fact, I bought more comics in the 1990s than at any other time in my life. Do I really have to choose?

    The 2000s gave me the Johns run of Teen Titans (Which is still my favorite one to this day) and Morrison's Batman and Robin. Both are some of the only series I've completely enjoyed from start to finish.
