How can anyone possibly consider that standard equipment for a character ho must have around 2000 appearances????
Whereas I'm using his Brightest Day appearances as his most recent showings, where he's always having it - and thus, standard equipment.
IMHO.
A bit like if I made an Iron Man thread, specified it was pre-AXIS, and we would then use his latest armour as before the AXIS storyline.
Or Hulk, we would be using Doc Green etc.
Right before the reboot, he was carrying it around as standard, as the Brightest Day storyline happened right before the reboot.
