Duy is absolutely right. DC wanted to be Roy Thomas so bad. But they forgot that the DC history is its greatest strength (and absolute advantage over Marvel). Crisis messed up the chronological importance: -Superman was no longer the FIRST superhero. -Batman and Robin were not DC’s first team. -Mon-EL never met a young Clark Kent. -DC SPECIAL #29 never happened. -The Superman/Batman team ups in World’s Finest never happened. Crisis caused far more damage than solutions. In my opinion, COIA is remembered for four things: -George Perez’s magnificent art. -The Death of The Flash -Superman carrying a dead Supergirl -Making Wally West the Flash. DC has a great history. Crisis tried to erase it.

Crisis screwed the Legion, the JSA, and All-Star Squadron.
You could argue that outside of a few runs, the Legion hasn't been the same since
These three remain dedicated to keeping DC content alive on YT
