That's the best part. DC and Marvel canon's have so little internal consistency that literally anything goes.
And that's not getting into all the spin-offs, adaptations, Elseworlds and what-if issues, and other multiverse nonsense.
Yeah that was just a dumb idea on Marvels part altogether. Just like the female Thor. Thor is the guys name, not a friggin tittle.
Yeah... DC really needs to pull their head out of their ass. Rebooting the entire continuity every few years is NOT how you keep readers.
