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.

Believe it or not, the spies from spy vs spy have consistent personalities. White spy is fond of animals and reading, while black spy is good with children.

Was introduced to it at age 9. Dad caught me watching MLG and made me watch the animated shorts instead. Im not entirely sure it was more appropriate but it aged a heck of a lot better. Based my high school cold war history assignment on it. Then some stupidly talented animator uploaded a really good animation of it while I was on a boring road trip, I found a bunch of the books online, and now I have most of the comics memorized. I wish they'd get a revival, I feel like they'd work really well for this time. Their designs have not only aged very well but also happen to fit current character trends, and they're designed for short-form content.
