Retrospectively, I think that the 90es were the worst of Comic's history.
Everything went gritty with a lot of pooches, edgy new characters with blades and knifes everywhere on their costumes. I was a late teen at that time but I had hard-time for reading those stories anyway. I have been raised by Secret Wars and Byrne's FF/AF, Power Pack and Silver Centurion-era Iron Man. (DC have been published in France only 5-7 years ago).

Now I'm more of a DC-guy as I think that they've been able to keep a little bit of the naive "good vs evil" in their core stories. I read the occasional big thing at Marvel, I enjoyed the Civil War and Dark Avengers storyline wich was very brave, but they retconned everything magically just after.

It's a good thing to get comics "realistic" but it's too hard to write on the long spart.

The DC solution to reboot every 10-15 years is not bad, at least I don't have to stop reading and go to Wikipedia every time some sister from another dimension's alternate reality appear to save the hero.

The other solution is "the straight line" with no coming back like Invincible. But it's more of a manga way of writing stories up. One and only one author, and when it's over, it's over.
