- so, with the DC reboot now headed towards being 2 years old, i was wondering if some of my favorite pre-new 52 stories are still considered part of the new continuity.
would love to hear opinions from everyone.
batman: - long halloween/dark victory/when in rome trilogy - hush guessing year 1 and catwoman: her sister's keeper are now null and void.
any birds of prey stories. kate spencer/manhunter series stephanie brown/batgirl series any doom patrol crisis on infinite earths wolfman/perez teen titans geoff johns' hawkman

- I think batman long halloween and dark victory yes.
all the others i think have been erased. all birds of prey and teen titans never happened, infinite earths without a doubt never happened.

- Now that I think about it, wasn't Anti-Monitors 1st appearance Crisis on Infinite Earths? If that never happend, he shouldn't have been reborn in Brightest Day. He had minimal use after being brought back to life anyways.

- really not happy with the new 52 as a whole.
there are a few decent books but as a whole, DC really messed up. in my opinion, of course.

- That's how I've felt. I think if Snyder wasn't writing Batman that overall the whole thing would maybe have been a failure except Justice League

- Dropped absolutely everything for a few months. The only DC books I miss are some of the Vertigo books.

- Currently, I'm not even keeping up with the TPBs of the new 52 series that I'm that interested in..... My interest is actually regarding pre-new universe TPBs moreso, as well as Wildstorm Universe stuff.
However, I'll go out on a limb and say that probably the Long Halloween trilogy is still lore, simply because I want to believe that the first few years of Batman's history remain unchanged. Although, if you think that Year One is off the table, then I'm guessing you have your reasons - I haven't read much from the bat-universe in the "almost 2 years old 52".
I think Stephanie Brown never existed in the new universe, and Wolfman's Teen Titans didn't either.
Crisis did and didn't exist, much like every other crisis........ they reboot the universe and both exist and don't exist simultaneously By this I mean that most of the characters don't actually remember it happening.
Your other characters, I have no input on because I didn't read the original runs that you're referring to, but I'll go with "No" on the Birds of Prey.Currently Reading: Graphic Novels: Nightwing (90s series), Lumberjanes Regular Novels: Chronicles of Prydain Add me on Goodreads
