Today I am most pleased to share with you an Ode to Comics Continuity In General.

They Might Be Giants - Istanbul (Not Constantinopole)
Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it's Istanbul, not Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Now it's Turkish delight on a moonlit night

Every gal in Constantinople
Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople
So if you've a date in Constantinople
She'll be waiting in Istanbul

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can't say
People just liked it better that way

So take me back to Constantinople
No, you can't go back to Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works
That's nobody's business but the Turks

As in that there is no continuity? Hmm.

In that there's no *stable* continuity, anyway. The anthem for that *should* be a cover song!

Although it is probably too late to claim I planned it. O WAIT. YOU KNOW WHAT I TOTALLY DID. ;)
