I'm not going into another wall of text, because I'm tired (and will likely head to bed soon, as I should have much earlier) and between my posts and others (such as DanielTepesKraus's posts on the matter), many relevant points and counterarguments have been made, but that's objecustive plyain wrong. The comics absolutely are non-canon and are a totally separate reality from the show, and that's especially obvious for the older issues.


 
The comics and their content aren't part of the same reality, universe, continuity, or whatever you want to call it as the show, that much should be obvious at this point, and again, that's especially true for the older issues, compared to the newer ones that at least seem to be using more story elements from the show, albeit that doesn't make them canon either, it just makes them focus less on their own totally original stories and more on things based to varying extents off of stories from the source material. Though that certainly doesn't guarantee quality, as seen in that latest couple of issues; maybe they'll get better though. And EQG is a false equivalence, though I don't want to get into any arguments about EQG.


 
The G.M Berrow books on the other hand are an interesting case, but I can only see an argument for the specific ones that have been clearly referenced, not any of the others. And even then it's certainly no guarantee, see the tweet in the picture above and what people were claiming before it came to light.
