1. Are the excessive number of event comics, kind of bleeding into each other creating a steady stream of forgettable arches?
2. Is the realization that nothing really changes finally beginning to take its toll on superhero comics.
3. Is the tapering off of new characters since the 90's really started to hurt story variety? (you can only watch the same characters go through similar story arches so many times)
4. Is the constant speculation and criticism of internet culture-making comics seem more predictable?
