I disagree. DC reboots have occasionally been useful when it comes to individual stories (I liked the mid-80s Superman reboot) but when it comes to their fictional universe making any sense, they don't help at all. I'd say reboots are the problem.
Like I said, "some", not a lot. It would've been a helluva lot worse if they had decided to make all these changes without any reboots, and come out with countless stupid retcons to try to explain away all the blatant discrepancies.
Truth is, though, I liked the original DC method of rectifying discontinuity in their comics: just say there are multiple universes with their own seperate histories. No reboots, no retcons, just different worlds. I wish the EU writers would get their heads on straight for once and adopt a similar multiversal framework.
