I think if DC had taken a page out of Marvel's book and relegated the New 52 stuff to another, alternate continuity meant to update existing characters that ran alongside the main books, remaining as they were, DC's continuity would be alot less of a mess right now. 

As much as I like the two [i]Batman: Earth One[/i] books that they put out (along with some Superman and Teen Titans books I didn't really like), that really should've been reserved for any attempt to solely attract new readers. Instead, they made things confusing for both new [i]and[/i] old readers.

Which is why it'll be a very, very long time before I even open a New 52 book and anything that came afterward. If I ever do.
