Which has the worst retcons?

IMO Retcon Punch is the stupidest thing ever, HoM was also pretty bad IMO.

Well, House of M did not retcon anything, so DC loses.

The Brothers being canon to both companies, then being retconned by both companies, were the best retcons ever, by far. Stupid, stupid idea.

At least DC gives some in-universe explanations for why things are being retconned, like the retcon punch. Marvel only uses the editors, a lot of times.

Beyonder retcon, worst... retcon... EVER.

Survivor19
True, that...

Marvel hands down with Spidey's.

How bout Hulk? I don't know if he was really RETCONNED but the whole character was changed, in the beginning it was a classic Dr. Jackel & Mr. Hyde concept and then Marvel lead the whole concept adabsurdum by making the Hulk misunderstood, that he always wanted to be left alone.

Yeah, the punch retcon was silly...but it did help connect some stories.

DC has better retcons. They explain it.
