I’m gonna have to watch this. Sounds like some neat stuff is covered.

Regarding 616, I believe it’s that most Marvel higher ups hate the term 616. Not sure if that’s what you meant.


Speaking of which, I just read Flashpoint. Amazing story but too short. And speaking of 616, wow does DC have a serious problem with how they treat their universes or what?

Flashpoint launches new 52 which combines DC, Vertigo and Wildstorm. Then they launch Rebirth. And retcon new 52 saying it was Dr Manhattan who wiped out 10 years of legacy years or some ####? How many times can DC reboot their universe? As a reader it is so goddamn confusing. And it has been going on since the 80s.
