Hi Neil, long time fan, first time caller. I was skimming through my issues of 1602 recently and I noticed a few details of Matt Murdock's origin were very different from canon (even allowing for time differences). For example, in 1602 he doesn't lose his sight playing the hero; he eats some goo. And his Ma is around to chide him. I was wondering if you were intentional in these details or if it was just a matter of telling a very complicated story in which you couldn't pay close attention to everything.
I don't mean to be negative. Your characterization of him is still very fun, as you really lean into the Irish parts and have him being a terrible singer and it's delightful. I was just wondering. Have an amazing day!
None of the heroes and villains in 1602 have exactly the same origins or lives that they have in 1961-1964ish. That's sort of the point. Angel doesn't join the X-Men in 1963 by being rescued from the Inquisition, and wasn't the last of the original X-Men to join the team.
Dr Doom isn't injured by a machine he's built to communicate with his dead mother. And so forth.

for team past in the Stevetony games!
square "seasons", for the challenge "resolutions".
1602 Tony settled in and even met a young man named Steve in the new world. They are enjoying the seasons changing together.
(aka: multiverse shenanigans meant that 1602 had its own Steve and the displaced one was form a different universe)
