Thing is even if the earlier stories of Strontium Dog should be considered part of the legend of Johnny Alpha built up later, that doesn't mean some of the stuff didn't happen, (from the point of view of the new stories I mean.) since the legends are based on something.
Perhaps some of the stuff relating to Durham Red in that period fits in that category... subject to interpretation where the post Johny Alpha events surround her are concerned of course.
To be fair I haven't read much Strontium Dog (basically the small pieces on this site and the new stuff we're reading now),and no Durham Red at all so this is all speculation on my part.
Then of course we also have the cross-over stories with Stronty and Dredd. I haven't read those either but I assume they're set in the original Alpha stories too right? Again there are contradictions in the time line (i.e. the Mega Cities, 2 atomic wars, 2 sets of mutants etc) although I imagine that could be explained via parallel universes etc.
