http://io9.com/the-7-least-subtle-comic-retcons-of-all-time-1427683222
I'll say it: I think Rob Bricken is being lazy with this list. I agree these are many and terrible, but in the history of comics I don't think these are the least subtle retcons, jsut a handful of those that people are most bitching about now. If this list had been done a couple years ago I'm sure it would include Avengers Dis-Assembled and Marvel: The End Kung fu 70s Wonder Woman springs to mind. Clone Saga comes close, but they chickened out of "Peter is the Clone." Death of Superman was always a planned media event, not a retcon. One that really deserves to be on there, if only to show that a retcon (or maybe "abandonment") doesn't have to be bad is Alan Moore's run on Supreme.

Best thing to do, especially if you think this kind of thing is lazy, is to not give it any attention at all.
