''[[LNH Triple Play]]'' #5 was a direct sequel, dealing with [[Contraption Man]]'s brainwashing and betrayal.
 ''Retcon Hour'' was divisive, with some disliking its chaotic nature. This lead to several writers creating what they thought a [[crossover]] should be, limited in scope and plotted out in advance, resulting in the ''[[Crisis of Infinite Sidekicks]]''.

-Nonetheless, ''Retcon Hour'' was influential, the model for many later crossovers. Few of them rivaled its scope and level of engagement, partially because the event it celebrated &ndash; the founding of [[rec.arts.comics.creative]] &ndash; resulted in many members of the LNH community founding their own [[imprint]]s and focusing on those instead, and the LNH itself becoming less unified. ''Retcon Hour'' itself tends to be remembered fondly, with references and homages continuing to the present day; ''[[Legion of Net.Heroes Volume 3]]'' #4 deals with a consequence of ''Retcon Hour'' 25 years later.
