If Steve is old in the House of M alt world because he was never frozen, does that mean that the serum doesn't actually, as per fanon, slow down his aging? Or is that just specific to that story? One of the things I have trouble with in fandom is determining when someone saying "it's canon" means it's part of the character's core mythology, or a thing that once happened "in canon" that may or may not be used again by other writers.

Also, I guess I'm the only one who likes House of M, but I'm kind of fascinated by that reverse mutant supremacy world. I've kind of accepted that the set up and resolution of some comics arcs are going to be weaker than what happens in the arc, which includes human rebellion underground, and, someone tells me, Hulk as the Prime Minister of Australia.

Which I hope is a true thing. Because yes.

If Steve wasn't old in M, I might be interested in writing Steve/Clint human rebellion House of M fic. Would it make any sense at all to just have Steve be Steve, or is that too obviously self indulgent canon alteration? I haven't read all the tie ins, and if I had, the sprawling nature of comics canon feels way harder to deal with than MCU, where you can simplify down to "6 Avengers, team ambiguously tied to SHIELD, magic and tech themes, go."
