Here Mike, let me explain the whole story:

The reboot was made because of the Penders lawsuit. About 1/5 of the characters in the comics were all Penders. And although Flynn was using only like five of Penders's characters, it still ha an impact on the comics. Think about it Mike; of 1/5 of the characters are suddenly taken away and you can't explain why, what would you do?

The reboot was the only answer out of the reboot. The whole crossover was a distraction from the main comics so the lawsuit could be fixed. The lawsuit hasn't been solved, but it's safe to say Penders got his way. And why are other characters such as Hope Kintobor or the Xorda not appearing?

Let's just say another lawsuit happens with another writer. And Flynn has already used characters in the comics from that writer. You basically are going to have to do another reboot. And if another reboot happens, fans lose hope for the comics and sale prices drop.

Archie and Flynn are playing on the safe side of things, creating new characters, getting rid of plot lines, etc. Personally, I'm tired of fans blaming Flynn for the reboot. If anything, Penders is mostly to blame for starting this chaos.
