   Take that argument to its limit and there shouldn't be any Batman or    
   Superman movies at all, since none of them have ever been compatable with    
   the comics.    
      
   Come to think of it, take that argument to its limit and any series about a    
   time traveller in a police box that isn't an edutainment show that    
   alternates between space opera and straight historical shouldn't call    
   itself Doctor Who.
