:Where does it say his first appearance was 1985? - The Hatter debuted in 1948 as a one-off character in one Batman story. That was his only appearance for years until writers in the 80s started to bring back old characters from the golden age, specially villains. That's when this version of the Mad Hatter reappeared, even though during the Silver Age there was [[Mad Hatter II (New Earth)|another Mad Hatter]]. When this version returned to comics, nothing was much altered and the character remained consistent throughout his entire comic career, including the Post-Crisis continuity until Flashpoint. That's the reason why this character doesn't have Earth-Two or Earth-One counterparts. He has remained the same and the stories that took place on those earths are assumed to be part of the character's canon history, to some degree. - [[User:SforHope|S.S.]] ([[User talk:SforHope|talk]]) 03:08, September 19, 2016 (UTC) |

Revision as of 07:52, 19 September 2016
1948 or 1985?
Is Tetch supposed to be an exclusively Earth-One character? His first appearance was in the 1940s, yet Mad Hatter lists no Earth-Two version and claims 1985 as the time of his first appearance. LuisDantas (talk) 02:55, September 19, 2016 (UTC)
