Not only do things get canon/non canon pretty quickly, as far as I can tell DC storylines are relatively hard to follow, since there are various crossovers and I-don't-know-what. Pretty confusing for beginners.PhunkyPhazon said:With DC, anything before Infinite Crisis is apparently non-canon these days, and even then it seems a lot of post-Crisis comics have been rendered non-canon also. I may be very wrong on this, but I get the impression DC is pretty bad with continuity errors. Regardless, I'm liking things so far. I checked out some of the Batman graphic novels and am reading through 20 year old Flash comics.
Speaking of which *raises hand* I am one too. If you forget about Carl Barks' Duck-comics and a variety of french classics (the adventures of Tintin etc.) I never was that much into comic books...
I just recently started to get really interested into the whole DC multiverse, so now I have read the Green Lantern: Rebirth graphic novel and am in the middle of Flash: Rebirth. GL is really great, not getting confused by all the randomly mentioned facts is hard though.
