[edit] ==Floating timeline in action

For other examples of the sliding timscale in action, take a look at this:
http://www.jrhunt.co.uk/thunderbolts/plottriv.htm
Thunderbolts #33 Jolt's kind-of boyfriend wearing a Blink 182 T-Shirt, despite them not being around during Onslaught (Summer '96). Proof of Marvel's sliding timescale? Could be.
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blink_182#Early_career_.281992.E2.80.931996.29 notes that this band did exist and was known as Blink 182 as early as 1995. However, they were not well known in 1996.)
Code of Honor#2, which takes place isochronally around the events of the Dark Phoenix saga: a bit of newspaper can be seen holding a review of the film Swingers, which starred John Favreau, who later played Foggy Nelson and will direct the Iron Man film. Due to the rolling timescale, this is not an anachronism (and was probably not an in-joke, since COH came out before 2003).
Eda Arul now overwrites Idi Amin in MTIO#41, due to Ronald Byrd. See pg 232 of FF Encyclopedia. This was specifically done to avoid topicality.
