I truly hope they cram in a cameo for Tim Russ and that this time, he finds shit.

/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags.
Use spoiler tags in comments, and NSFW checkbox for posts.
This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

I feel like super hero comic fans have a bad rep, but are more easy going about this than one may think. Things kind of drift in and out of continuity all the time. Especially if we’re talking about a big creator. Grant Morrison misremembers Batman’s son’s origin? Okay, that’s the new origin! He wants to bring back the second Robin’s red hair, which was written out twenty years ago? Okay, that’s a thing again.
I think the MCU did great translating comics to screen (though I have criticisms), but they can't keep up all these interlocking stories and have perfect continuity while at the same time have every movie be an action block buster where, at a bare minimum, Earth is saved from total destruction.
So they can do a total reset, but then you have to start completely over, and that pisses people off.
I never really read superhero comics qua comics, but I got the feeling things are MUCH more fluid, like a new writer takes over and makes some changes, and this is happening across multiple books across time.
I’ve long felt that Fox’s X-Men films capture the feeling of being a long haul comics reader best, because of their sloppy approach to continuity. It’s constantly changing directions, slipping in retcons, reintroducing characters in ways that invalidate their previous appearances. You can tie yourself in knots trying to reconcile X-Men Origins Wolverine with the Deadpool movies the same way I used to try to figure out how Hawkman’s continuity could possibly work. Totally get why a lot of people hate it, but to me that was always part of the fun.
