So you're running away. I guess that isn't much of a surprise
I keep asking you if current Superman's career during WW2 still stands. Who are you to act like the shoe is on the other foot? I've been asking you whether current Superman started his career during the 1940s from the very start.

And you keep fleeing from that question.

Just answer it.

What's the contention here? I thought comics always operated on this weird sliding timescale, so kids can pick a comic up and relate to the characters i.e. Spidey and MJ in their original showings dress and talk like they're teenagers in the 60s, Batman is off to watch Zorro from the 30s/40s, Banner and Rick Jones are young guys in the 60s etc?
There is no contention here. qwertyuiop1998 wants to act like decades old feats stand as they were originally presented. Then when industry-wide retcons are assessed, those selective feats still stand because "one timeline where everything matters". But even he cites a moving timeline where things are clearly retconned. D1s dumba$$ started arguing against himself.

My fault? Maybe. excellent

Isn't the early post, which Scott Snyder interview, already answered your question?

As for the timeline part, why not let the guy(Scott Snyder) who made "everything happened" explain to you?

"Both happned, both can be referenced"

I mean, you basically saying that "these feats get retconned! Because I don't like it, and I don't need specifical proofs to prove they get retconned"

"qwertyuiop1998 thinks current Superman started his career in the 1940s"

Yes or no?

Do you think floating timeline doesn't exist in comics, yes or no? 🙂
We can continue using questions answer questions game.

I've asked this several pages ago. You can keep running away from it. But it's inevitable. You must answer it:

"qwertyuiop1998 thinks current Superman started his career in the 1940s"

Yes or no?

And I answered the question pages ago, you keep running from it.
You based your "retconned" argument on Superman doesn't emergy in 40s, but comic book time already countered such argument

Like I said before, you basically just repeating babbling about "these feats get retconned, even though I don't have direct proofs, but I feel it gets retconned!!!"

Just for (another)reference
In World's Finest Comics 271, it makes a direct reference to Lois Lane 12

And we've a good idea for the time period of this story(at least, for the year it occured)
https://ibb.co/rcTw1GQ

Yet, in Lois Lane 12, Hawaii entered into the US(I.E it is around 1959)

I.E, using the time period as a proof to say something gets(entirely) retconned is very iffy in comics. At best, you can prove that the time period it happens gets retconned, but the whole story gets retconned? It can't prove such notion

Yes or no?

Why it sounds like you're afraid of acknowledging the comic book time exists in comics?
Maybe because once you acknowledged it, your whole argument about 1940s period would fall apart?

Repost this again

This is quintessential retardation. Nothing less. I expected better from you. But then again, I remember the last five conversations we've had where your asininity atrophied the collective intelligence of KMC as a whole.

You can pretend that we're arguing about floating timelines but that is a complete strawman.

It's a strawman because the genesis of our conversation was whether pre-Crisis timelines were canon to current characters.

You argued that Death Metal made everything count. Indeed you kept posting about how Death Metal made it so there was "one timeline where everything matters".

It didn't. If it did, then current Superman started his career in the 1940s.

That you cannot reconcile that notion outwardly, let alone within your own mind, just evinces what a pitiful troll you are. N1gga plz.

But your argument for the pre-crisis characters aren't canon, is based on an argument that would get countered by floating time

And once you don't have it, you only just throwing tantrum at this point.

Not my argument, pal. You argued Death Metal made everything canon. A floating timeline just destroys your own original contention.

Bottom-line is, with all your random pre-Crisis scans that nobody gives a sh1t about, you want to rely on implied floating timelines but ignore explicit actual retcons.

Why exactly are you so desperate to reach back towards such old, random, retconned feats? Are we going to pretend Superman isn't the most widely published superhero since Crisis on Infinite Earths and doesn't have a wealth of current feats to choose from?

But if you reject such notion, then again... what exactly is your major malfunction here?

Yeah, I want to hear the explicit actual retcons here 🙂
Aside from your laughable argument that based on time period(which is very iffy) what are your proofs for the explicit retcons?
Especially when the writer that makes everything canon tells you to interpret it as all things happened, and all can be referred

Like I said before

Crisis on Infinite Earths #1-12 you unmitigated moron.

It gets undone by Death Metal, sorry
When our heroes saved the Multiverse from Perpetua in Dark Nights: Death Metal, everything was put back where it belonged...and we do mean everything. *All the damage from all the Crises was undone*, and heroes long thought gone returned from whatever exile they had been in.
