Marvel Chronology Project

Watching Saving Private Ryan in hope of getting ideas to solve the multiple appearances of Captain America and Nick Fury on D-Day...
There is also Deadpool 2 on another channel...

Options:
1. Decoys. There's real world precedent for using doubles to fool the Nazis around D-Day.

2. (Previously unmentioned) Clones. They're not just a modern day problem.

3. Teleportation. When you just need to get there immediately.

4. Time travel. Dumbledore lent Fury and Cap a pair of time turners (and don't say Dumbledore's not in 616 - Harry Potter is:

I can appreciate the joke. Especially if it's against lazy chronologists.

But I never understood the sentiment.

Right from the beginning of Marvel, there were mistakes, from Stan Lee, from Jack Kirby, from others, and it was readers who stepped up and provided explanations why the mistakes were not mistakes.

Thus was born this unique creative interaction between storytellers and readers.

I think, starting with George Olshevsky, and here at the MCP, we are in this tradition. And blaming a writer has never been in this tradition.

In fairness to Stan, he never wrote a story within the span of half a dozen issues where "A comes before B, which comes before C, which comes before A."

Bendis does this consistently.

Indeed! I was not checking the board during those years and this is the first time I come across it. So I was not aiming at anyone here and certainly not at you.

One reason I'm doing this activity is because my brain likes to solve problems and these are the kind of puzzles I like. The kind of puzzles that do not always have a solution.

But I see you solved this one fine.

This D-Day conundrum is shaping up to be the one with the most involved solution.

You're doing great.
