Broken Base: Mostly during the phase 2, the overarching story arc leading to the Soft Reset. Bloch's retirement, the introduction of John Ghost, Ranya and inspector Carpenter (among other changes made to the series) were either welcomed to those who felt the series had gone stale or criticized by those who feel that the changes made the series too different from what it was supposed to be. Everything went horribly personal with the Soft Reset itself, with the now current curator of the series personally blamed and marked with every major change in the upcoming continuity.
Lampshaded in an issue where an ex policewoman is haunted by what seems to be the ghost of a criminal she helped capture and execute. When Dylan suggests it may be a twin who wants to avenge his dead brother, Bloch replies he's not heard such a trite idea since '48. In the end it turns out it was a band of six twins.
Groucho revealing he had been secretely working with John Ghost in issue #399 was no surprise since nearly everyone had figured that out.
The movie
Complete Monster: Vargas is the owner of the Corpus House, the biggest nightclub in New Orleans, who facilitated drug trading in his club. Introduced by knocking out one of the humans who is partying at his club (and that same human's body is later seen among a large pile of corpses at the Body Shop), it was revealed that prior to the main story, Vargas murdered the wife of a supernatural private investigator, Dylan Dog, and framing the Vampire Elders so that he could secure his position as the leader of the vampires. Determined to get the artifact known as "The Heart of Belial", Vargas personally murders a werewolf that guarded the artifact, and when one of his vampire mooks accidentally exposes him and his clans to Dylan, Vargas then punishes him by burying him for more than twenty years. When Dylan and his undead friend, Marcus, obtains the Heart of Belial, Vargas then locks them in the crypt and gloats towards Dylan about his dead wife as he plans to use the Heart of Belial to summon a demon in order to make all of the vampires and humans bow down to him.
Fanon Discontinuity: Most fans like to pretend the 2010 movie never existed.
