Man, fans have got some pretty short memories. Some of these moments are kinda lame, actually.

Wow. The only pre-Crisis moment was from an Alan Moore story from two years prior to Crisis?

Whenever they do these things, the more recent stuff always gets prominent placement, unfortunately.

This is why I look at things like the top 20 "all-time" comic book artists and have to chuckle.
Of "all-time" tends to mean the last 25 years, tops.

Yeah, that "Hal Foster" guy is okay, but I haven't seen him draw a decent thigh pouch or bicep bandolier.

And that Alex Raymond guy - no dynamism at all - it's like he never even read a Jim Lee comic.

Is this survey you're referring to happening in 1992?

I could substitute in "Nehru collar and body armor", but Hal Foster was a master of those.

The collar with the piping on the New 52 Superman looks like he's wearing his "dress uniform".

Reminds me of the old Wizard magazine---only occasionally would they acknowledge the existence of comics made before 1980.

:lol:

Of course, if they did a X-Men list without listing Byrne's stuff from back in the day, it would be an outrage...
