I believe the use of the template should be restricted to connect appearances of characters that are somehow connected between different comic titles (crossovers) and/or characters who have long gaps of absence between issues. For characters who appear constantly on the same title, there's no need for that. Adding the template to list a chronological order of appearances is also a misuse of the template in modern comics.

The reason why the template has not been removed from several comic pages, is because most of us don't have the drive and mindset to track down all the issues that other users have tagged. It is not wrong, so long as it is useful, and creating a tag that indicates that Batman appeared last in the previous Batman comic and appears next on the next Batman comic is pointless, redundant and impractical.
