Choose the comics you like and construct your own story. For me, the JSA and JLA of the late 90s to late 2000s will always be the definitive stories. Other things may come later but in my DC universe those stories are the core. Anything new will get molded around them. You have to create your own ending. I always use DareDevil as my greatest example for this. After Brubaker's Devil in Cell Block D storyline I felt fulfilled. For me, DareDevil had ended. I know Waid's current run is amazing but the story of DareDevil (at least in my own eyes) has ended. The world of superhero comics is really just a R&D lab for movies and TV shows these days. A minor league for story telling where the best ideas and characterizations can be mined and honed. I hate to say it that way but its kind of true. It hasn't always been that way but it is that way now. I would love to say that every story matters and every thing is right but that would be disingenuous. Caleb, I would love to continue this conversation later if you'd like. I think the topic of comics continuum and if it matters or not is a interesting and deserves more of a conversational debate approach.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br /><br />Sherlock or Mycroft, which ever you decided I am today.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
