Do you give the new direction ANY chance to be entertaining?Or do you you say "Its not Bruce, so I'm not buying!" ?It seems most people seem to think that these characters should stay boring, never changing icons because1> Thats just the way it is. Comics should be like Family Circus. Family Circus kids stay kids.OR 2> The mainstream public wouldn't like it (but of course, they don't buy comics, so you cant lose sales.)I really don't see how Batman moving on changes his iconic status in anyway. You STILL have someone in the suit. and you still have the long-lasting impact and memory of Bruce Wayne. They won't suddenly burn all the classics. People who want Bruce can still order TONS of TPBS with Bruce in them. He will still live on in DVDs of the tv show, the cartoons, and the movies. Bruce and Clark will always be two of the first super heroes and two of the best super heroes but it doesnt mean they always have to be. If they are half as iconic as people say, their legends will live on...</blockquote>
