And the X-Men got all inbred with each other.
Euuhh...yeah...thanks for reminding me,

Oh trust me, I agree that Superman wasn't the only thing that nearly killed comics in the 90s.

It was a rather big nail not to mention that there were so many other factors and so many gimmicks that the companies tried also.

I think and I know I am not 100% right, one thing that is partially saving the industry now is the plethora of comic movies that have been released in the past few years especially since now producers have finally been able to use CGI to really tell their stories...

BTW...stay away from The Spirit.
