Comics
I'm guessing comics are still considered canon? It is just that on the page Globex Corporation, they are under the non-canon section. ☆The Solar Dragon (Talk)☆ 06:39, March 26, 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, unless they are THOH or stuff like that.--Sgtcook (My Talk Page) 17:08, March 26, 2010 (UTC)
- Most events in the comics are never mentioned in the show, and they sometimes contradict information in the shows. The producers never really addressed whether the comics are canon or not, but most fans consider canon as anything that happens in the series and the movie only. Ldude893 11:57, March 28, 2010 (UTC)
Rules
Proposed rules:
- Everything is considered canon except Treehouse of Horror, Bible Stories and other similar trilogy episodes.
- If another source contradicts an episode, the episode comes first. Before books etc.
- If a game has something non-canon about it, such as characters from Treehouse of horror in, it is non canon.
If we go by these rules, that can make everything work, I think. ☆The Solar Dragon (Talk)☆ 12:03, March 28, 2010 (UTC)
