Also in most cases, DC hasn't passed off its characters willy nilly. It's passed them to proven characters (sidekicks) and usually after interest in a character has waned. For example most of the handoffs were done after all the Golden Age books were cancelled and later brought back in the Silver Age, when supers were more popular again.This is the reason Marvel brought Cap back (the resurgence of superheroes) but Stan thought the character was too strong and came up with a way to have it be the same Cap.Stan rebooted PLENTY of Golden Age characters (the Human Torch springs to mind here). Good enough for Stan, good enough for me.</blockquote>
