JLA/Avengers and DC vs Marvel are canon to Marvel and DC?
Because of this?:

It's a cool easter egg, I guess, but there are better sources to support the canonicity of JLA/Avengers... /shrug

I'm reading The Green Lantern: Blackstars and I gotta ask, is anyone else getting the impression that Grant Morrison is taking the piss out of modern DC with the dialogue between Superman and Hal Jordan lol?
Yes, and I think it's f*cking hilarious.

But it's the most recent one, Galan.

KMC will go kaboom, expect that scan to get reposted over 9,000 times.

JLA/Avengers was already canon, we just made it forum rules not to use it.

DC vs Marvel....hm. Weird.

Where do we go from here?

Yep. 👆

The events of JLA/Avengers are what placed Krona in a cosmic egg, which made the entire Trinity event(where he hatched from that egg as a sentient universe) possible. There have also been indirect references to that crossover in various Marvel and DC stories/bios over the years. It was just blanketed as non-canon on KMC back in the day to make things easier.

And I know people are hyping it in the ownage thread, but this page is just an easter egg, guys:

...It doesn't canonize anything on its own.

I loled. Carver does throw the subtlest of jabs then pulls a Taylor Swift out his ass when confronted

Of course, Cyclops getting beat up by a bunch of old women is the best thing ever.

Don't ban me.

Eh, The Hordeculture thing is one of the more interesting parts of this new series. Hickman's characterization is all over the place.

Not really, only skimming through random scans.

Wolverine and Quentin teaming up is always hilarious.

Can't stand Xavier being so naive to welcome anyone on the island with open arms - wtf was he thinking?

Why Essex is on the council? He's not even a mutant.

Is he not kind of... Grandfathered in?

I thought JLA/Avengers is only canon to DC, since Marvel has not referenced it

I would hope DC vs Marvel would be non canon, those fan votes matches were pure cringe

The could be canon and just at that some outside force was screwing with the fights

JLA/Avengers is undoubtedly canon to DC. Marvel has indirectly referenced it in a few bios, but that's about it.

You could even argue that DC vs. Marvel is canon to both companies(to at least some extent), because of Access.

This new page, though? It's just an easter egg they threw in for the lulz. It doesn't make any crossover canon on its own.

It "only" lists all the major Mjolnir wielders in canon... 😖hifty:

Rage will commit suicide.

There aren't enough worthy heroes on the Marvel side to fill the entire panel, so they had to borrow some from DC.

DC heroes simply are more worthy than the Marvel ones, in general. 😉

Marvel vs DC was essentially a fan fic. It's was all voted on by the people. Its been canon but those Avengers weren't the ones from Marvel main universe

The latest Thor Worthy comic seems to refute your statement.

No, it doesn't. it was an easter egg, nothing more, they do this all the time

Right, but if taken at face value, it implies that 616 Mjolnir(and therefore 616 Thor and the 616 Avengers) are who interacted with the JL, and not some alternate version of the Avengers.

I think that's what DS is getting at.

Basically. Call it an Easter egg, call it the writer/artists personal beliefs, call it editorial decision, whatever way you want to slice it - fact remains, In a canon comic, we have Jane musing on the previous wielders of Mjolnir.

I don’t want to detract from the current discussion but this feat hasn’t been discussed yet. Is it because even the usual low ballers can’t lowball it?

LMAO, Superman breaks chains created under pressure from a black hole and used to haul stars, beats dozen of robots which were beating everyone on Earth individually.

Superman beat the flash in a race showing that if he has to, he can be faster than the flash.

He shattered the unbreakable chains showing that he can be as strong as he has to be.

He defeated an army of robotians that were supposedly stronger and faster than him because he can be as powerful as he has to be.

He single handedly stopped a would be universal conquerer because when he has to, he can do anything.

Why aren’t the low ballers attacking this issue with the same vehemence that they are attacking WF? This is actually better because this means Superman can do anything.

Carver has already dismissed it as non canon
