Also DC really needs to get over its fear of admitting when something isn't main timeline canon. It doesn't mean the book is any worse, guys. Everyone knows that.

Brought to you by watching people try to figure out when in canon Doomsday Clock happened, which Joker Harley fell

in love with vs. which one abused her, and whether TK's B/C series is the answer to what happens after JT4's "check back in a year."

Ps. The answer to all three is "please stop, it's an AU." Although obviously DDC wasn't originally meant to be.

But @brucewaynehoe, @booboosheep and I were talking about this the other day, like... there's a trend of stories that are canon to a specific writers' runs, or that follow up on seeds thrown out there during a canon story but aren't canon themselves for whatever reason, and

it would be nice if DC would just put a little label on those books so people know what the hell is going on. Hyperverse maybe? After hypertime. IDK.
