What Ifs, or alternate universes are not used for evidence in debates of a particular mainstream character. A canon source is one that is regarded as being 'in continuity'. In the example of Star Trek; instances from the series and movies can be used, but books are definitely out. Comic book crossovers are usually unusable as they ignore common sense most of the time (DC vs. Marvel is certainly unusable in some cases in our debates!). This principle extends to characters with multiple versions, alternate timelines, etc. Unless specified by the thread starter, only current-version canon feats are allowed.
That isn't a standard version of B13 anymore than Henshaw using Warworld (which is currently his instead of B13's) and a planetful of manhunters would be standard.
That said. I'm aware and find that version of B13 quite impressive.
Originally posted by Avloni don't recall saying that was B-13's standard version. i merely said it was B-13 at his height.

on a sidenote, if a character has the ability to transverse time/universes due to temporal, and/or some other exotic powers, then pretty much any showing said character has is canonical unto them. do we disregard superman prime destroying an alternate earth, just because it was an alternate earth? nah. why? because it was within his powerset to pierce space/time in order to reach that earth in the first place. much the same could be said about B-13. meh.

Except that is canon to Superman prime as it's the same main universe character and not an alternate version. Seeing that b13'S didn't happen in the main timeline AND it was an alternate version of him...it wasn't his "height" but a probability.

dunno, it was never touched on. the heroes reached that universe ala waverider, and found that it had already been warped by B13 - and that was just one of the many he apparently mucked with.
It continues straight on from OWAW. Brainiac was never stopped and took over the universe planet by planet amped by Imperiex power.
