I am not a DCU fanboy, as you're talking to me like one("Let...it...go"? Uh, it doesn't bug me as much as that), and do not give a single flying fuck about continuity, nor did I say anything about it. I am not talking about continuity. I'm looking at this as basically a casual reader with a familiarity with the characters that is fairly basic. I am saying that, to me, they don't sound right. The question is not whether they sound like any particular version. The question is whether they sound convincingly like the characters. It's not my fault they fall flat. And sound stiff.
There was a time when Moore's rhyming was new. It was weird. But he made me accept it.
