The problem however is that only one form of evidence was provided to prove the action pack comics are canon, and that was an answer from Duncan. As Shadow brought for us, there are multiple other answers saying they are not canon.
This?
What makes you think that Dwayne and Charlotte weren't referring to Action Packs when they were talking about comics involving Ben 10 being non-canon? because I don't remember them making an excuse for something like "this one is canonical but this one isn't" they went out there and stated that they aren't canon and again that would be just taking Duncan's word for it and ignoring other writers...
That had be on you to prove that duncan was referring to action packs as well, as he clearly said that "some has strayed out" not all of them. And as I said, efi already seconded in this thread that answer about something being canon or non canon is just as it is.
Because not all of this information was taken into account when that canonicity thread was made about the action pack comic.
As I said, prove that duncan said "all of the comics are non canon", he said "some has strayed out" that doesn't mean anything like contradiction you are claiming. Burden of proof lies on the one who makes the claim don't just ******* take side or U turn for each person trynna giving 2 cents on downgrade w/o using 2 cents of honesty. Claiming in the OP that I am fine with comic being canon w/o wog and then taking a huge U turn.
That’s not how this works, as this is reversing the burden of proof here.
Some that has been strayed out? Answer is in the answer itself.
Action packs are canon statement, done. Thank you very much. Now leaving it, feel free to convince staff that it is non canon. I have 5 staff agreement on it being canon. I am done.
And that statement has now been contradicted by multiple other ones.
he said that some are not canon, while saying the action packs are, therefore the action packs are part of the bunch that is canon
no it wouldn't
it already was
it wasn't contradicted, it you using the word "generally" in an incorrect way
Man, you're only taking the first sentence into account, right after he says "no" that he doesn't consider the comics being canonical to the show anymore. He literally considers the Ben 10 comics non-canon, so why would we consider the Action Packs still canon? becuz he said they were canon in an old answer? what makes you think that answer from 2019 didn't got retconned in this answer from 2020... also, with that we would have Dwayne, Duncan and Charlotte not considering the comics not being canon, I would say that 3 series staff is enough for we not considering the comics being canon anymore.
Efi was aware of MC duffie statement. He read the @Maverick_Zero_X Answer and still seconded it that this comic is canon. The point is that writers do not hold rights over canonicity over the published things. That's common sense. It's decided by those who holds the rights of the content.
he says "generally" aka "in most cases but there are exceptions"
because he said so?
the fact that the answer does not retcon anything
Thanks for proving my point. In most cases, the comics aren’t canon then. It’s a normalized standard for them to not be canon. Therefore, none of the comics would be canon.
overal means "in general rather than in particular" so again it is open to exceptions
well said, In most cases, aka there are exeptions, and we know that the action packed are one of those since we have confirmation of it
it doesn't get overlured tho, since he never that no comic was canon
read above
Having nothing left to say than this than what’s already said. This is headcanon and extreme cherry picking to selectively choose this comic because of evidence you want to use.
That is quite a lot of staff support.
It is all about the statement that mc duffie made, that only show is canon, it is one of many statements (he also had some statements at that time like alien x cannot win against garou and all) that has been discarded later on by WOG like duncan who actually holds a right over establishing something as canon and something as non canon. Also that most of the staff members were fine with this particular comic being canon as it evident the events of the show before the show episode itself and thus creating a connection of it with regular episode. It was througly explained in the thread that why this comic is canon but efi asked that he will only take direct statement of WOG (he was aware of mc duffie statement but that had be rejecting most of our profiles and scaling we have on ben 10).
Repeated... Anyway,
But why? it's been said by two staff that they tried to keep things supported by the source material (like you said) connected to the events of the main story
He was talking about comics that has been strayed out, like parallel paradox and others, this comic hasn't and in the end they're just generally non canon unless we have direct statement of it being canon.
That's what I am saying, end up disagreeing with me. Be done and don't keep repeating to flood it unless someone ask. Now keep the chats minimum we are on the 6 to 7 pages. Reply when needed and adding up something new than what has been said.
the duncan profile i already addressed
And we disagree with that. It’s wrong and outdated by a more recent answer.
#mcduffie and all, we have seen this statement billions of times by now. We still have waybig profile with things outside of show, alien x profile with things outside of show for the simple fact that writers do not hold any authority over deciding what is canon and what is not. It's all about what those who holds rights over the show and character decide.
Based on Reiner's previous posts i've seen, no.
Okay. Understood.
