Oh, yeah, the comics do that too. I think it started when they decided they wanted to revisit the dystopian future of "Days of Future Past," so they revealed that, instead of being erased as the original story implied, it had survived as an alternate possible future. Which was done for narrative reasons, but inadvertently came closer to making physical/logical sense.

Mark Gruenwald's rules for time travel in the Marvel comics were published in Marvel Age magazine in 1992 and are recounted here...

That is exactly how Banner explained it, and that is the time travel model that the Marvel comics have also long used. You can't change the past without creating an alternate reality, and a person's arrival in the past is enough to create that alternate reality.

I was responding to a post about 12 Monkeys. Not sure what that has to do with Marvel comics or anyone named Banner...
