Self explanatory. List recurring storylines and plots that should be banned from certain titles.

Legion of Super-Heroes-

Legion getting outlawed. Especially if Universo is involved.

Reposting because Goddammit this needs to be the new rule if DC wants Teen Titans to succeed in DC-Nu

There are some things that need to be permanently retired from Teen Titans books so we can see quality improve and not see writers tell the same fucking story over and over.

1) No more Daddy issues. That means Raven and Ravager. Enough is enough.
2) Deathstroke should no longer be allowed anywhere near the book or anything Titans related.
3) THIS THING NEEDS TO NEVER BE SEEN AGAIN:

X-Villain joins the team, only to revert back to their evil ways and betray them. See Magneto (3 or 4 times), Mystique, Sabretooth and more.

Something happens to make the police turn on Spider-Man and he is forced to go on the run.

Hawkman in general, he's fucking awful.

Some company introduces a tech-suit that is 'better than Iron Man', Iron Man then retools his suit and smashes it. Detroit Steel really should be the last version of this idea.

Trigon in Teen Titans, he's such a shit villain. Deathstroke is bordering on over-use too, basically any of the Wolfman/Perez villains should be put to bed now, the Titans really need to move on.

Skyrider, so you think no Teen Titan should ever die? That would get a bit boring wouldn't it?

Wait...did you say bordering??? LOL!!! Good one!

Ok, let's see...how about "JLA forced to take down a mind-controlled Superman"? Or more to the point, "Batman keeps tabs on the weaknesses of his fellow JLA members just in case".

Any ill-conceived Wonder Woman plot (Manazons anyone?).
