Forum:Timeline confusion: Dead Men Tell No Tales graphic novel

When compiling timeline information and dates surrouding the events of Dead Men Tell No Tales, the graphic novel adatptation's claim that the movie takes place in 1751 has been used in conjunction with the behind-the-scenes statement that On Stranger Tides took place in 1750 (a year eariler).

However, that model doesn't work, since in Dead Men the movie itself, it's stated that there is a five-year gap between the two movies, not a single year (Jack was carrying arround the Black Pearl in that bottle for five years). So, one of the two dates -- either the "word of God" that On Stranger Tides is set in 1750 or the graphic novel's timestamp of 1751 for Dead Men is wrong. So, how do we sort this out and pick which one is the "correct" one?
