As a 30+ year fan, I know Flash Thompson is a soldier, and I know that Flash’s status as a veteran has to be updated from the Viet Nam war. However, I am not sure where in continuity this fits. Did Flash get sent back to Iraq after being a gym teacher? Or is this before he became a gym teacher? And if that’s the case, why was his status as an amputee never acknowledged? But as an out-of-continuity one-shot, it was (pardon the pun) serviceable.
