The Chaos Age
[1992-end of Cry.Sig/The Long Road to Nowhere]
1992
- April 27th, 1992: Bill Sherman signs off a post by referring to himself as Spelling Boy of the Legion of Super-Heroes.
- Due to the erratic internet access outside of universities in those early days, the early CPDC threads are abandoned until the next semester.
- September 1, 1992: The Two-and-a-Half Month Gap ends with Scavenger issuing the Call to Arms. LNH storytelling revs up again, with all kinds of new authors including Drizzt, Dvandom and the chaos-creating wReam jump in to revive the saga.
The Golden Age
[October 1992-Retcon Hour]
The Silver Age
[Retcon Hour-1996]
1994
- rec.arts.comics.creative is approved. In storytelling terms, this leads to Retcon Hour, the LNH's most sprawling and ginormous crossover to date, as wReamicus Maximus and other temporal threats take advantage of the newly recreated net.reality.
1996
- rec.arts.comics.creative becomes moderated by Russ Allbery.
