In your opinion, when has a retcon been good during a franchise, and equally, when has it been really bad?
For me, it's difficult to say, since I've not been aware that much of retcons, outside maybe of Crisis on Infinite Earths, which I've only seen on TV, not read.
Retcons will always be a controversial topic within any fandom as they're tricky to get right, very YMMV, but I felt it's worth discussing here.
