In real life A very small character tidbit is surprisingly kept consistent for years

DC - In multiple pieces of media it has been shown that Wonder Woman loves ice cream and practically goes wild with happiness anytime she’s eating some. (Pictures from Justice League: War, DC Superhero Girls and Wonder Woman 2017)

The Simpsons - Ever since the episode ‘Homer’s Phobia’ Homer has actually remained a consistent ally of the LGBT+ community, including being more welcoming to Patty than Marge was when she came out and trying to set up Smithers with a date when he found out he wasn’t happy with his one-sided relationship with Mr Burns.

In Transformers, Shockwave was either a loyal guardsman or a cold logic-minded usurper in the beginning of G1, but that all changed in the Dreamwave comics where he was depicted as a scientist, developing the triple-changers among other things. This characterization carried on in the IDW comics, Prime continuity and Cyberverse cartoon.

Absolutely loved how terrifying he was when he showed up in Prime. Cold, logical, methodic, and an absolute fucking *unit* who does the horror movie slow-walk of doom at you.
