This is “Just a Reminder,” where current fan discussions spark up commentary on comic book history. This time around, a debate about what comic book characters would or would not do leads to a reminder that headcanons only exist in your head – character histories go way beyond that.
Every once in a while, there are these… I guess the best description for them is “thought experiments,” that become popular on social media. You know, like, “What superhero would be the most likely to do X?,” and more stuff like that. What amazes me about them, though, is when you will see fans step in and try to argue against certain picks, because the picks don’t fit their headcanon, and I just think that that is unreasonable.
However, while headcanon is one thing, the fact remains that all of the stories DID happen (unless they were specifically retconned away), and thus, different takes on different characters are still “acceptable,” as well, whether it fits into your headcanon or not.
