Oh for sure! I see him, Waid and Slott as one similar sort of writer, who reference continuity too much and bore me on long runs!

:roll:
Heaven forbid characters have a past that writers acknowledge.

A good writer acknowledges continuity.

A poor writer ignores/is ignorant of it because they are either less talented or couldn't give a damn (in which case why the hell are they writing the character(s) in the first place).

Astro City is the only thing I read by him. The first book.

It made me very sleepy. :P
