Canon Discontinuity/Web Comics

Examples of in  include:

"Black Mage: *To Red Mage* You suck. *To Fighter* You suck. *To Thief* And you were wearing red a second ago! Thief: No I wasn't. Besides, what kind of ninja wears bright red? Black Mage: Ha! I never said it was bright red! Thief: Neither did I. Black Mage: Ghk!"
 * Lampshaded in Narbonic here and here, where the "two foremost experts in comic-book continuity" explain away all plot discrepancies.
 * In Erfworld, the magic school of Deletionism was recently replaced by "Retconjuration" in order to explain how a change was retroactively made to a character's special ability. Therefore, Deletionism has never existed.
 * In an early episode of The Order of the Stick, Roy's ghostly father mentions that Xykon killed his master Fyron and his master's son. When these events are depicted in Start of Darkness, no mention of the son is made.
 * It's more confusing than that. Start of Darkness was released before strip #434, which has Roy mention Master Fyron's son again.
 * It's speculated by some fans that Fyron's son was killed off panel.
 * 8-Bit Theater: Thief's ninja costume was never red.
 * In context, the outfit was red for the greater majority of one strip. Black Mage lampshaded the color change the following strip while he was descending into his standard state of being pissed off.


 * A Loonatics Tale "Job Hunting" never happened; what we see is a version which was severely neutered to make it acceptable for use in a school assignment. The artist is in the process of drawing "Rehired", the canon version of the story.
 * Rick and Becky actually use it as a barometer for what does and doesn't constitute valid criticism; anyone who says they thought the original "Job Hunting" was good, isn't going to be any good to them if they need an editor.
 * The Second Eaton arc in Shortpacked! never happened. You just imagined it. Now let's never speak about your crazy, drug-fueled hallucination again.
 * There's an in universe example in Our Little Adventure with The Lady of Fate and Fortune. The creation of the Magicant caused so much turmoil and greed that the other gods decided to revoke the Fortune Lady's god status and banish her.
