D. Yao) Organization: Hadron, Inc., Fairfax, VA Lines: 17 Keywords: Superman Effectively, continuity died in the Crisis. I don't see why Superman has to change so much; but, then, this will be Byrne's artistic effort. Consider this: when some of us fix a small bug in a program, we fix the bug and maybe a little of the infrastructure. Others of us will rip any program to shreds and re-write it to suit our tastes (Berkellions!!!). Then again, the latter approach is needed if the program is intrinsically buggy, or if it is internally artistically offensive. (;-)) Anyway, yeah, this will be a new Superman. Let's give Byrne a chance and see what happens. But I thought the way they broke up in "the last World's Finest" was incredibly stupid. -- Joe Yao hadron!jsdy@seismo.{CSS.GOV,ARPA,UUCP}
