John F. Kennedy lived

Yes, poor Roy.  He did so much work to make "sense" of stories done by creators who cared not a fig for "continuity," and was rewarded with the Crisis, which undid all his work (while he was still doing it!) and ushered in another 25+ years of creators who have cared not a fig for "continuity."

He's like the Don Quixote of comics, or something.  The last man alive who's convinced somehow, with effort, it can all add up.
