I do not subscribe to this group, so PLEASE do not followup to this
posting.  I was a comic addict a long time ago, until I withdrew for
various reasons.  Anyway, I recently learned about DC's "Crisis on
Infinite Earths" series, and now I'm immensely curious as to exactly
what's going on in my old comic world!  I know about DC's strategy
behind it;  all I'm interested in is the story line in the comics.

     So, here's the request:  is there anyone out there who has
complete knowledge of all that has happened in this series, AND who
is willing to spend a little time summarizing it all?  I have heard
that Supergirl and Flash have bit the dust, but I don't know how
this occurred, nor if they are the only ones who have.  I'd like to
see a rundown of all the (significant) events that have happened in
this series.

     If you feel knowledgable about the series, and you're willing
to spend the time educating me, please contact me via e-mail at
the address below.  Thanks!

				Bill

Ditto.  In fact, why not just post it on net.comics ?  Bill may be speaking
for more than just the two of us.

BTW, I'm really enjoying the postings I'm seeing on this net.  I feel 
like a child again -- I went over to the Madison Public Library the other
day and read through their comic book collection.

I appreciate the time and care that net.comic contributors have been spending
on the reviews.
