Both approaches are starting to suck for the big two. You can either let writers tell whatever stories in whatever way they want. Which leads to
continuity issues as writers make up what they want to fit the stories they want to tell. Or you tightly control your universe and have big universe
wide events all the time. That forces the consumer to buy issues of books they do not care about just so they can keep up with what is going on. I am
sick of both. Which is why I mostly read self contained comics that tell one story from beginning to end by one writer now.
To the OP. I agree about Hellblazer. That was a Vertigo title. They should not of tried to fold certain Vertigo titles back into the main universe.
They were much better off as standalone titles. DC has gone through reboots before and they left the Vertigo stuff alone. They only did it because
Constantine was a movie and is now gonna be a tv show. Not for any creative reasons.
Heck if DC wants to make their universe more interesting. Just fold all of Vertigo into the DC universe. Imagine, King mob, Lord Fanny, Ragged Robin,
Jack Frost, Jesse Custer, Cassidy, Saint of killers, Arse face, Lucifer, Spider Jerusalem, Agent Graves and the Minutemen, the fables,and the only
version of Sandman that matters. Battling the Justice League for control of the mind of a comic book writer named Derek Cornelius or D.C. for short.
That right their is a story worthy of the title Crisis on Infinite Earths. I better keep my trap shut and not give them any ideas.
