But ignoring something in continuity makes no sense to me breh. I could ignore that they retconned his marriage all day long but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. Peter Parker is just as famous as spider man. Just like Bruce Wayne and batman even though Bruce isn't the only one to have worn the cowl. He's still batman to the public at large.
I'm not sure you get the irony of that though.
You don't understand ignoring something in continuity...? Okay, that fine. But what happens when the next arc puts into continuity that the previous continuity is no longer continuity.
Novelty is not a good enough reason for precedence. Meaning, the newest of two things is not correct simply by being newer.
There are people that would tell me cable is in story arcs that happened years before his character was created.
Or people that believe Vulcan (created in 2006) was part of missions with the original X-Men in comics from the 1960's.
I hear way too often that Catwoman was never a prostitute and Mad Hatter was never a pedophile and Superman didn't used to spank Lois, simply cause its no longer okay for any of those things to be true. But believing rewritten works of history when you can look at the original works is no different than reading from those new textbooks that try and convince you that slavery was benificial to slaves and the slaves were happy.
There is a word for the idea that something done cannot be undone.

- a thing that has already happened or been decided before those affected hear about it, leaving them with no option but to accept:
Without a good grasp of this there is no point to being a comic fan.
To let people in 2015 tell you 50 years of things they had no involvement in never happened is silly to me.
But I know alot of ppl merely accept anything new that is written... so to each his own.
