So far, I think there are three or four continuities.
You know, a nice bit of Crisis and they could clear that problem right up....
I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
But then I might lose the two I like (Ultimate and New Mutants). At least, I think they're both non-standard. I'm a little unsure, because Uncanny and New X-Men both refer to a recent event I can't find, and I'd thought New X-Men was a different continuity anyway.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I just had flashbacks to rec.arts.comics in the 1980's, when they would post an Unresolved Uncanny X-Men Plot Thread List, which ran into the hundreds.

God, I loved that thing. Now I'm going to have to hunt one down.

I kind of assume that everything is part of continuity.
Oh holy hell. That would make my head explode. Trying to keep main continuity straight in my head already makes my brain ache.
Of course, there's also the fact that when you take existing DC continuity into consideration, sex pollen as a plot device is entirely valid.

You forgot about the "I believe you" moment with the kid. He hoists a huge gun in his hands and points it at the bad guy.
D'oh! Forgot all about that one!
Which invalidates my contention that he didn't use guns against people to do more than disable/disarm. Unless you want to wank that the Mutant wasn't killed, only wounded. Which I'm not sure I can.

We don't actually see him pull the trigger, do we? Maybe he just swings the gun into the mutant's face or something.

Oh, no...he so pulls the trigger. And then there's a "B-dam!" type sound effect of the gun and the mutant falling over with the blood on the wall...
...Yeah, I think my argument that Bats don't use a gun to kill in TDKR is hosed.
