As someone who has been reading DC for almost 40 years now... Yes I still do read a few titles... The problem with DC is they just don’t respect the source material.

The original Superman Movie, holds up well to this day (other than the cornball ending), because it respected the source material.

The Batman Reboots that started the modern DC movie ERA largely respected the source material....

Wonder Woman, for the most part, respected the source material.

Everything else? Not so much, and that is why nearly everything else has been a dog.

Not to mention that the latest Superman and Ben Affleck are mega-stiffs.

Agree. A Dark and Brooding Batman was okay, because it was plausible within the source material for Batman.

The last comic book I bought was in January of 1993, and it was "Death of Superman." I have it sitting here in my desk drawer right now.

The Death of the iconic American Superhero seemed to be a foreshadowing of events that would be the consequence of the election of that human garbage Bill Clinton.

I have never bought a comic book since.
