So a lot of Death of Superman, Lois and Clark and Animated Series fans?
Could someone please explain to me why the generally accepted date ranges of the Silver and Bronze Ages are split and/or oddly mismashed together?
And I’m a Bronze Age (ca. 1970-85) fan. Curt Swan is the greatest Superman artist ever!!
Because there isn’t a definitive delineation for when one ended and the next began.
Nice to see the Bronze Age get some love
STAS made this era awesome. Good memories.
