Character resets (let alone entire franchise or shared universe resets) are in part influenced by the fact that these comics have been running for longer than almost anyone alive today. Sure, sometimes these resets happen in rapid succession due to changing demographics or a failed storyline that led to massive reader backlash (like Secret Empire's Hydra-Cap) but they're usually a result of trying to keep these characters relevant to changing times, demographics, and generations.I agree that it's not all that different from a party that's played the same characters for years and decided, rather than start over with new characters in a new campaign, to start over with new iterations of their characters. I know that I've run my main PC in about a dozen different campaigns over the years, often with some carry over parties but a different total make up and different worlds and settings, and campaign stories that started from Level 1, so it didn't make sense to "import" the character as-is from his past adventures, but instead reboot him.Created by two 1st-generation Jewish-American comic book writers/artists, Jerry Sieger and Joe Shuster from NYC & the Tri-State area. Notably, Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko were all also 1st-generation Jewish-American comic book writers/artists from NYC and the Tri-State area. (Note also that Bob Kane was a descendant of Eastern-European Jewish immigrants, though not 1st-generation, and Bill Finger was an Eastern European Jewish immigration 1st generation American as well, and those two created Batman). The turn of the 20th century Eastern-European Jewish immigration to NYC and its suburbs had a profound influence on the dawn of comic books as the All-American myth.</blockquote>
