As much as that period was a pile of **** if it hadn't happened then superhero comics might have died. They'd been dying for a decade before the original Seduction of the Innocent came out in 1954 and it was the introduction of the Comics Code Authority that forced publishers to stop making horror and crime comics and go back to superheroes. So I guess it wasn't all bad.
