Changed a lot of context without losing much content.<br /><br />Also, it was good. Being good excuses a lot.chiasaur11https://www.blogger.com/profile/14848393618682533604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28703497.post-35879032182301960072011-06-22T13:36:58.832-07:002011-06-22T13:36:58.832-07:00Heh.

DC DOES need some continuity gloss, but it would be nice if they were a bit more subtle about it, instead of making such a huge hoohrah about everything.SallyPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05592635194271250605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28703497.post-38613878447622707222011-06-22T06:24:15.291-07:002011-06-22T06:24:15.291-07:00Good blog man, really good.

I enjoyed the fake commercial since it's the god's honest truth on that subject. <br /><br />I don't know why DC has to make a big deal out of retcons either, as your right about Marvel being more subtle about theirs, except for the whole Magical end to Peter and MJ's marriage. DC should just cop to the fact that their making their characters young again and be done with it. We're all adults, and can accept that these characters are(for now) financially viable properties that have to be freshened up every so many years. Mr. Peanut and Toucan Sam don't look the same as they did when they 1st appeared, and no one has a problem with that, so again like you say, DC should stop making a big deal out of nothing. <br /><br />The problem does arise though with the utter physical/visual erasing of said character's history. That needs to be worked on to be a smoother transition than what is currently taking place.Mr. Morbid's House Of Funhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06721085161381688977noreply@blogger.com
