I'm glad DC set Action Comics and Detective Comics back to their proper numbering in the 900s (adding in the number of issues after the New 52) during Rebirth, and seem to be keeping them there for the foreseeable future. It's also nice that they're letting all the series that relaunched or started during Rebirth just get higher and higher and number, even 2 years after, so we're seeing 30s, 40s, probably even 50s soon for some of the titles that were biweekly when they relaunched.

Meanwhile, Marvel just slapped some questionably-calculated "legacy numbering" on a bunch of their titles, and then did a confusing dual-numbering system for a little bit, and now seem to be abandoning it again after less than a year.

Ms. Marvel did get renumbered back to 1 after Secret Wars after 19 issues (because Marvel can't seem to go more than a year without renumbering half their titles for no reason), but it's been allowed to get to 31 without renumbering by this point, making for a total of 50 issues.
