none, if the character was consistent they can reference whatever they want. some reference the DC/MU crossover it doesnt make cannon.. marvel has reference house of M doesnt mean the character depiction is accurate..
you want to prove Grodd is the same as he was prior to the universal retcons to the DCU have him repeat the feat and show equal power lvl and battling someone like Martian Manhunter in telepathic battle.. not telepathically attack him by surprise but out right challenge someone of his lvl..
hard to do since he is dead maybe maxima DCU characters are so Skewed and inconsistent that Aquaman's powers to control the person's fish brain is not the same as Xavier or X-man or emma frost telephathically controlling a person making see things fending off otehr TP'ers.
the attempt to use Aquaman to accredit Grodd is vague b/c AM mental defenses and abilities are not legit telepathy.
yes, AM can bypass certain telepath and cause pain seizures doesnt mean he can battle on the astral plane with the likes of Manchester black or access his memories turn him into a vegetable mind wipe him. hell, Gypsy has better overall legitimate telepathy then grodd and AM..
again you have to show the recent character at least within the 90's to now of grodds replicating and equaling Emma's power level..
logan doesnt have to do this since marvel doesnt retcon its history or screws character power lvl as bad as DCU and even then we provide past present feats overlapping one another to make a case for him to show his feats from the 80's match the 90's and even today.
so far the current grodd has psi bolted Flash which he recovered immediately only knocking him on his @$$... telepathically instilled fear in nightwing and mental illusion during battle and also randomly broadcasted rage fear to ppl..
that really isnt that impressive for the modern almight grodd. nor equal to his classic power lvl.
have you noticed when a character undergoes changes without explanation and are written differently for years we differantiate between classic version of the character and how he is currently written?
which is why we say classic Thor or Classic Hulk or Classic Herc or Classic jugg or Classic etc etc...
