The settings conceits shift at a whim, and have done so for 80+ years. They exist, then don't. They all warp and change however is needed by whoever is needed.

At one point, a dude punches reality. Literally hits reality with his fists.

Its fine to argue about any art form, but I think the most pertinent critique of comics is that it's art for capital. Any story element or setting is for sale in our world. Taking the inner world at any face value while ignoring that is pointless.
