Let's discuss the current state of ETERNITY

Has there been any speculation or reason why Eterniry keeps showing up in chains since ANAD launched?

is there some sort of secret build up to something?
>>
>>87422834
It's not really "secret" build up. It's pretty clear and obvious build up for Eternity War.
>>
>>87422834
well whatever did it has been indicated as being the huge thing Maker wants to merge all the universes together and form an army to fight

might be related to why the ultimate universe wasn't remade
>>
>>87422834
Eternity is into some kinky shit.
>>
>>87422834
the chains represent disney's ownership of marvel

or the burden of capitalism on a supposedly creative endeavor limiting the kinds of stories they are allowed to tell because the marketing department is stuck up their own ass on how accurate their graphs are at predicting where the money is

or bendis

maybe all of the above
>>
So is Eternity War going to be a reboot?
>>
We don't know

Ultimate Reed maybe knows something?

Galactus is investigating

But they aren't so no.

didn't they gave a brief explanation on Starbrand & Nightmask?

The Living Tribunal is dead?
Man, I sort of stopped reading Marvel around the time of the heroic age so obviously I missed out on a ton of shit but WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED? Pandering to minorities by inserting new characters into old roles is one thing, but even beyond that it's like every aspect of Marvel is completely unrecognizable to me. I mean DC went through New52 and I hated it, but it still sort of felt DCish, you know? Marvel just feels like a completely different universe.
>>
>>87428666
the beyonders decided to start wiping out all of creation to basically find out what happens when the whole multiiverse bluescreens, and took out a significant number of abstracts and cosmic powers that they felt would get in the way of their grand experiment

kinda outta the loop here but I'll ask anyway. why is Galactus yellow now?
>>
>>87429207
He's been evolved to become the Lifebringer, Seeder of Worlds.
When his old boss, Master Order, tried to force him back to the old status quo, Galactus punched him in the face.

that sounds pretty cool actually. the yellow looks kinda lame though.

tl;dr
>universe getting turned off and on again kicked it into its 8th incarnation, quantum physics are slightly more complex
>allows the formation of stable Iso-8
>Galactus was prophesized to give back all the energy he took when the universe and the new one begins
>since that technically happened, a bunch of super genius and powerful heroes calling themselves The Ultimates hatched a plan to kick Galactus back into the machine that transformed him from a mortal into Galactus, pump the machine to the brim with Iso-8, and kickstart his transformation into a new form
>it works
>Galactus is now Lifebringer
it's all covered in the first few issues of Ewing's Ultimates
>>
>>87429207
He went Super Saiyan.
>>
>>87429325
so is Lifebringer a title or his name now? because I don't know if I can get behind the name change. everything else sounds pretty good though.
>>
>>87429403
A title.
>>
>>87429403
A title. He's Galactus the Lifebringer: Seeder of Worlds like how before he was Galactus the Devourer: Eater of Worlds.

Fuck, I hate the idea of this character. Even more so than Franklin Richards.

>Create a fictional multiverse full of cosmic beings that are literally facets and manifestations of reality itself
>Some writer shits out some Mary-Sue tier human character that completely invalidates their existences

I wish comic books would stop this. Like I get the narrative appeal of man transcending his mortality and becoming something greater, whether metaphorically or literally, but this shit is just too far.
>>
>>87431978
>Some writer shits out some Mary-Sue tier human character that completely invalidates their existences
That writer would be Stan Lee with the help of Jack Kirby years, and for some decades, before any of the abstracts' creation.

While I generally agree, I think that the writing here is good enough that I can ignore the issue. The whole multiverse is kind of in disarray, so it doesn't entirely feel out of place.

I miss back when there was a sense that the humans were just small fish in a big pond, though.
>>
>>87432225
Which character? It can't have been "decades" since Eternity's been around since 1965 and the modern Marvel universe was only around for four years before that.
>>
>>87432225

I know that Lee and Kirby came up with Owen Reece, but was he as stupidly OP back when he first showed up in the F4 as he's depicted now in the Marvel universe?
>>
How do you guys feel about the apparent absence of Celestials in recent Marvel? Like, the last one that showed up was Exitar, I believe. It's not like Marvel doesn't own their movie rights.
>>
>>87432348
Yes.
>>
>>87432348
He was nothing like this in the Lee/Kirby days. Guy was a two-bit villain who couldn't control organic molecules. Nothing even close to cosmic entities, which were more or less the same back in the '60s, but minus the hierarchy that got constructed in later decades.
>>
>>87429166

I'm pretty for sure they're going to ignore all the cosmic aspect stuff of Marvels.

They are CONCEPTS, that means they take form in what people think they look like.

It's lazy writing really.

Someone needs to do what Morrison did for DC in Multiversity and put Marvel all together. How everything fits together, in some form of I'd say 'hierarchy" but it doesn't need to be that linear.

dumbass Molecule Man has been OP tier since the Lee & Kirby days. He just never reached his full potential until the secret wars mini series during the 80s.
>>
>>87424784
>>87422834
Basically whoever chained Eternity is the next big bad, but like a fucking BIG bad. Ultimates 2 is going to focus on it I think. Anti-Man is now Galactus' new herold and is gathering the Ultimates to potentially face this threat. I think we'll learn the next piece in that book, or New Avengers.
>>
>>87432796
Yea, he got his huge power-ups in Secret Wars 1 and 2.
>>
>>87429098
You can actually see the eyes of whoever chained Eternity in this pic. Neat.
>>
>>87429304
His new Herold looks fucking awesome though. Also, it's Anti-Man so he's extremely powerful.
>>
>>87432959
They did that with Earth X..... and it was just bad.

Fer real tho just read Starlin Cosmic, Grunewald Cosmic, DnA Cosmic and now whatever Ewing is doing with Ultimates/New Avengers/ Contest of Champions. They all tie shit around and add to the basic narrative of things. Marvel doesn't really need a mutliversity to explain shit.

Also I think Celestials were always meant to be mysterious beings answering to a higher power. The whole point of them was that there are still things out there in the universe left unanswered to mere mortals.

What I hate is how Marvel can't fucking decide on spatial boundries. Like there's space, then there's the negative zone, then the superflow, then the outside? But I feel like there are just new layers added all the time just so characters can go even "further" outside reality. Like, Eternity isn't even close to all of existence. How?

>>87435016
Yeah, and most of the newer additions are things basically stolen from DC comics. The whole 'super flow' was completely ripped off from DC. Starbrand, Nightmask, POD, and etc were all characters from their New Universal line which was supposed to be their answer to DC's Planetary, but New Universal failed hard and so they brought some of the elements from it into the main Marvel company.

Here's Marvel Multiverse structure we know as of today.

I do agree they should stop adding new shit but idk why you are complaining about superflow when its been a thing for like 20 years or so?

>>87436425
What book? And who knows yet?

>>87422834

Why does anybody even care anymore, at this point?
>>
>>87435016
>>87436578
You guys should study the string theories, it'll melt your brain.
Marvel might have came up with their stuff first but the real thing is eerily similar and way more complex.
>>
>>87436603
No way, Marvel's doing that story in a different book with different characters.

... THIS IS A TRUE THING.
>>
>>87430007
Master Order and Lord Chaos could be anything, since they're floating freaking heads.
Eternity is a man because his other half, Infinity, the embodiment of Time, is female.
The Living Tribunal is a man because this version of him is an uplifted version of Adam Warlock, who is was designed as a male (his three successors to Beehive's attempts to make genetically perfect humans were both female, before you start with that).
Then there's the beings who weren't there, like Death and Mistress Love.
>>
>>87436645
Sad thing is, you have to ask; is that really beneath the levels current marvel staff would stoop too?

At least in Jim Starlin's pocket reality.

>>87428666

I don't know if I should be answering the Antichrist, but what the hell, Damien: The Beyonders decided to destroy the Multiverse, so they worked their way up the foodchain, killing Captain Britains, Celestials, cosmic abstracts, until the Living Tribunal manifested and they basically dogpiled him; attacking him in every universe simultaneously.

I should add that Hackman retconned the Living Trubunal as the embodiment of the Multiverse, like a higher-up version of Eternity.

>>87430007

So you perceive them as male? All of them? How interesting.

Seriously, what is the fucking hype about Manhattan? He is not that powerful.
>>
>>87435356
he seemed pretty 'beyond' such a thing stopping him. the guy was borderline an abstract himself. I'm willing to bet money Ewing set him up as a major villain for later down the line so writers have something other than Thanos and Apocalypse to use
>>
>>87432225

Molecule Man wasn't THAT powerful, originally. And he wasn't a Mary Sue, either. In fact he was more of a classic deconstruction of "what I would do if I had ultimate power".

>>87432348

Fuck no.
He had a WAND.

>>87432842

They're scientists. To them, lesser races are just cultures in petrie dishes. There's no moral angle for them. Do we feel bad about microbes?

>>87433716

He could be so amazing. Which, actually, he is, sometimes.
>>
>>87437396
>what is the fucking hype about Manhattan?
people like to believe that because he's from a 'grittier' setting, that gives him a massive edge over anyone from a 'cornier' setting shy of the loony tunes
>>
>>87437379
Well Ewing acknowledged it by referring the new tribunal as new to his job. Which gives Thanos segway into fucking up the cosmic balance of things since he won't notice.

Its literally shown here>>87429098
Its not Starlins pocket reality you pleb.

However the Thanos that finally fucked Death probably is a pocket reality version or something as Ewing referred him as some aspect of the mad titan who finally found happiness.

Christ, I noticed. Jesus this couldve been a much better thread without all of that nonsense.
still a good thread though. Marvel's cosmic, though a bit... confusing is still very interesting to me.
>>
>>87437548
Even if it was intended as bait, it is a good question.
Think about it: Why does the embodiment of Death prefer to manifest as female?
These things have been shown as formless in some comics, and Death has been shown as appearing in other disguises before. So why does she usually pick female?
Is it because Death is such an intimate thing?
Why are the others mostly male? Do they have reasons for that?
>>
>>87437541

...I don't think that's a better ending, and also I thought you were talking about Earth-X rather than the entire trilogy.

>>87437548

Of course it's confusing, writers feel even less restraint in doing whatever they please than usual.

>>87437616

Well, who was the first person to depict Death as female?

Wait, wouldn't that almost have to be Jim Starlin again? In that case, Death is female simply because Thanos is a guy who wants to tap that.
>>
So is ultimates any good?

>>87422834
The Gentry is invading the Marvel universe.

>>87437668

>>
>>87437678

Yes, it is any good.

>>87437683

Marvel =/= Multiverse-2?

>>87437703

I know, right?

Technically it is a reboot, since the universe was recreated. Completely. Everybody died and was re-made. How many original survivors are even running around in the present Marvel Universe, anyway? Black Panther, Star-Lord, Captain Marvel... Miles, but he's from the UU... Cyplops is dead... Reed is somewhere outside of the multiverse... I am prepared to accept Sue and the rest were saved by Doom rather than recreated outright, but they're outside too... oh, and Doom... the Maker, sort ot...

>What I hate is how Marvel can't fucking decide on spatial boundries

Okay that's what I'm saying about DC and mutliversity. DC has the Bleed and the Source. We know these things, multiversity just gave as literal fucking map showing how they connect. That's what I'm meaning here.

Like someone needs to come up with some standard visual representation -- a map of sorts for Marvel so they're not just making up shit as they go along and it all gets confusing and jumbled up.

I'm making my own superhero/cape universe and I'm doing this myself. It's not that easy either. You really have to think "okay so where is the universe where the psionic guys hang out and where exactly is the spiritual after life where the ghost guys are from and how does this connect to the actual physical universe and Earth that's kind of physically different from our earth?"

It's a daunting thing but in my own writing I realized, fleshing it out to a point really makes the rest of the writing easier and more fluid for the audience. Once you establish the boundaries and borders of everything.

what part?
Abstracts don't have a "look" by themselves. They are, after all, Abstracts.

The way we\the characters see them is only a way the brain uses to give form to the formless.

It was started by Byrne narrating a vast number of alien races all seeing Galactus differently.

This applies to all Abstracts, Death included.


If Thanos is not a faggot, he's probably going to see Oblivion as female and not as male(as it's usually "seen" by "us")

it's also wrong.

at the "center" o the scheme there should be the Multidimension Reality Cake.
Basically, the various realms\dimension(godly and hellish dimensions as well as all the other dimensional planes) form a "multi-strate cake" that make a Universe.
There are as many Universes as there are Quantum Possibilities, each Quantum Possibility making a new one. This form a Multiversal Cluster, or Megaverse.

Outside that there is the Superflux, then the Neutral Zone then the Outside

Nice trap they set there.

Ehh... wrong thread. Nevermind.
>>
>>87439520
A Universe is composed by many Realms(also called Dimensions).
They form a "pile" of sort: Vanaheimr is a higher realm than Earth, while Helheimr is a lower realm.
The Dark Dimension is a cluster of Realms conquered by Dormammu and are all much higher than Earth Dimension.
The Olympus dimension might well be either higher or lower than the Earth Dimension.

Think of the Universe as an apartment building: each floor is a different Realm.
Gods just live in different floors than Humans.


/note: this part is valid only up to before Secret Wars. We don't know if it's still valid.

The Marvel Multiverse is a Quantum Multiverse.
This means every Quantum possibility generates a whole new Universe.

/end part with limited validity

The aggregation of the various Universes is called Multiverse.

Around\between the various Universes, there is the Superflux

Outside the Superflux there is the Neutral Zone

Outside the Neutral Zone there is the Outside.
>>
>>87439517

WTF are the 'superflux' and the 'neutral zone'?
>>
>>87439750
Superflux should be superflow.
The Neutral Zone is just a realm of combined matter and antimatter.
>>
>>87439750
Superflow(I called it Superflux by error: sorry)=Bleed, basically. Ellis recycled his own idea. The red sea between the Universes.

Neutral Zone=concept made up by Ewing for Mighty Avengers. The Wild Space Beyond, the last piece of Reality just before the Outside

>>87439770
thanks for the Superflow correction.

for the Neutral Zone, it started like that but Ewing later did change it into the Wild Space Beyond
>>
>>87439799
I think Ewing was just expanding on what Grievioux established in Blue Marvel's original mini
>>
>>87439817
I don't think there was the Neutral Zone in the original mini, but I might be quite wrong.

Still, right now it has been expanded\explained as the Wild Space
>>
>>87439621

Molecule Man can manipulate energy and matter to whatever degree you can imagine.

When he first appeared he could just alter molecules (well, and energy, since he could freeze stuff), but his power just gradually increased.

In the original Secret Wars, Doctor Doom - who was really feeling it after absorbing Galactus' reserve power - gave him a pep talk, opening his mind to his potential. After that, he was much more powerful than before.

Doom later "discovered" that the Beyonders deliberately planted a Molecule Man in every universe to blow all of them up at once. Doom started to harvest them and turned a bunch of Molecule Men into a bomb to destroy the Beyonders. He then took their power and stored it in the 'original' Molecule Man, who is now the most powerful being in existence, it seems.
>>
>>87439853
>who was really feeling it after absorbing Galactus' reserve power
he actually was in possession of the power of the Beyonder. With that, Doom did show Owen how Reality did work, lifting the psychological block that stopped him from manipulating organic matter.
After that, the Molecula Man was able to manipulate reality at will.

After Secret Wars he got another power-up of sort, and is now Narrative Man but he likes the alliteration so he sticks to Molecula Man. He can do even more than before, Even Galactus Is Afraid, so nobody calls him on it.
>>
>>87440118
>After Secret Wars he got another power-up of sort, and is now Narrative Man but he likes the alliteration so he sticks to Molecula Man. He can do even more than before, Even Galactus Is Afraid, so nobody calls him on it.

I lost track of Secret Wars at the end, what can Owen do now?
>>
>>87440279
Everything. Even more than before.
>>
>>87440297
So he's even more top dog now, like here? >>87430211

But he's still bound by things like mortality and the human brain's comprehension capacity no? 'Cause otherwise it's stupid to even consider him a man, if he's a de facto god. I know Galactus made him a herald in the latest ultimates, but that's... a bit ridiculous, no? Owen outweights him considerably and apparently isn't bound to a purpose like big G is. So what's his end game?
>>
>>87439799
Forgive me if I'm wrong, but isn't the Bleed a Wildstorm invention? I keep seeing it in reference to the main DCU and I have to admit I'm not that familiar with the DC universe.

Did they fold the Bleed concept into the main DC universe with New52?
>>
>>87440410
Galactus made ANTI-MAN his Herald.

And Owen is, in fact, now de facto vice-God.
his end game is.... there isn't any end game. or, if there is, it's outside the human ability to understand.

>>87440594
Bleed was a concept Warren Ellis made for Wildstorm. It was later absorbed in the DC Universe.

Ellis later made a similar concept for Marvel's newUniversal line and Hickman did expand on it.

Yes.
>>
>>87441366
Ok, that makes sense.

On another matter I still don't think Beyonders really killed the Abstracts, just their manifestation - I mean where was Phoenix if existence (actuality) itself was in danger? And we know it's a power that easily rivals LT.

>>
>>87440118
>he actually was in possession of the power of the Beyonder.

I used to think so, too! In fact, however, he had his talk with Owen BEFORE he went to confront the Beyonder. That's why there were no supervillains on Battleworld anymore during the finale: Molecule Man had taken them and Marsha Rosenberg's home with him back to Earth.

At the time Doom talked to the Molecule Man, he was already very powerful, but because he had absorbed the energy of Galactus's world ship, which the latter had changed into raw energy to prepare himself for his own battle with the Beyonder. Doom had cut Klaw's body into lenses to build the apparatus to steal Galactus' power; he correctly theorized that the time Klaw had spent bouncing around in the world ship as a soundwave had created in him a resonance with it.

>>87441572

I don't think Bob with all his juice and Celestial boost on top of that have really been caught up in the collapse. He probably didn't notice, or hyperspace and other higher dimensions were left intact with denizens watching and waiting - like Phoenix and Celestials as pure energy. Also - this' by no means a powerlevel faggotry - I like Sentry as that one complete total anomaly, nobody fucking knows what he is, where it all came from, it just is. Remender had the right idea with that insane cosmic awareness, but well, we can't have nice things anymore so no Remender's Sentry mini.

Well it's hard to tell what's up with Anti-Man and Franklin, but yeah that's the absolute top tier, with Sentry being the most dangerous/diverse in power because of the Void fuckery - after Bendis it became some kind of metaphysical force and Remender kept it that way.

Sentry is pretty crazy cause Bob doesn't even have the Void anymore. Isn't there still a sliver of it inside Scott's Black Box? I always head-canon that as something that helped push PhoenixClops along to torch Xavier.

Yes. He doesn't have a book specifically starring Galactus and his Herald investigating whoever chained Eternity.

By "main" I meant the leading titles that are shaping the narrative line of Marvel dude. Ultimates isn't one of them.
>>
>>87444257
MCU Spoilers: Strange gets pretty crazy with its depiction of Dormammu, and the Living Tribunal is mentioned as well. Not to mention GOTG's Eson and hints at the Abstracts and their relation to the stones.

Might add up to a whole lot of nothing but I thought it worth mentioning
>>
>>87444354
The three major shaping narrative lines going through Marvel right now are Ewing's book wtih the lead-up to Eternity War, Spencer's books with the lead-up to Hydra War, Waid's Avengers/Champions stuff, and the X-men/Inhumans stuff. IvX is getting resolved soon, then up next will be Hydra War. After that I expect Ewing to get to take center stage... hopefully.

Then there's Bendis who just leaches off what other people are doing like he's about to do with HydraCap over in Jessica Jones.

Ewing's books may not be center stage, but I'd say they're definitely a major narrative through line going through the Marvel Universe right now in the same way that the Marvel NOW-era had Remender's stuff and Hickman's stuff both running concurrently.
>>

Re-reading the Ultimates right now but a very stupid question.
What is the difference between Omniverse and Multiverse? Also isn't Reeds the "owner" of Eternity?
>>
>>87444847
Well, Rich is back (and is presumably going to be rebuilding the Nova Corps with Sam's help), Spencer is setting up the new Quasar, Humphries isn't around to ruin Star-Lord anymore, and Bendis is in the homestretch of his run with only two arcs left: Guardians of Earth and Annihilation II.

Cosmic should hopefully be back to top form this time next year since Bendis should be gone by then. Just in time for him to move onto writing/ruining the Fantastic Four relaunch.
>>
>>87444962
It was a mass fuck-you to everyone.

They straight up admitted it was planned on very short notice, which means no one had time to properly get ready for a book-interrupting event.

On top of that they had Bendis at the helm, who ignores characterisation/continuity/logic.

Really anyone who got dragged into CWII and didn't get fucked over is either incredibly lucky or a damage-control wizard.

>>87445003
Slott did okay; I cannot confirm if it's true or not, but a popular rumor is that Bendis wanted to have Peter Parker die in CWII and Slott had to intervene.
>>
>>87445031
>What is the difference between Omniverse and Multiverse?
Multiverse is the collection of universes. The Omniverse is everything within the Marvel sphere, like, Earths 1 through 999999999 or what have you are the multiverse, while the omniverse is those universes, the negative zone, the neutral zone, the realm of the abstracts, and everything else.

For an easier/more visual point of comparison, pic related is the map of the DC multiverse. Using the Marvel nomenclature for it, the Multiverse would be Earths 1-52, the bubbles in the middle, while the Omniverse is everything within the Source Wall.

>Also isn't Reeds the "owner" of Eternity?
Nah, he recreated Eternity along with everything else, but Reed is just rebuilding the multiverse. He has no actual say in the cosmic hierarchy or how things are ran. He may be God, but he's more of the "build it and let them sort it out" kind of God. Also the One Above All still outranks him since Reed was powerful enough to recreate the Living Tribunal, hence TOAA having to turn Adam Warlock into the All-new All-different Living Tribunal.
>>
>>87445141
>Also the One Above All still outranks him since Reed was powerful enough to recreate the Living Tribunal, hence TOAA having to turn Adam Warlock into the All-new All-different Living Tribunal.
Reed wasn't* ?
>>
>>87445064
Not a rumor. More a joke that was taken way too seriously. There was a journalist ingrained at the Marvel Creative Summit for the planning of CWII. While there, they had decided that "a major character had to die so people knew things were serious." Jokingly, Bendis kept referring to the character that had to die as "Peter Parker" (like a, "so then this major character dies, let's call him 'Peter Parker' for now.")

When the interviewer/journalist asked Slott his opinion on Bendis referring to the doomed character as Peter Parker, he replied with something along the lines of "You think I'm scared? You think this is my first rodeo? By the end of the day, the character won't be Peter. I'll make sure of that."

And so we got War Machine and Bruce Banner as the sacrificial lambs.

I think it's just T'Challa, the Maker, Miles and Doom.

I always kind of hated how trigger-happy Marvel is with the Omniverse word. Like, if there's a Captain Britain in every world in the Omniverse, does that mean that there's a DCU Captain Britain? That there's one in the goddamn Harry Potter and Sonic the Hedgehog and Mario universes?
Was the entirety of fiction destroyed and recreated after Secret Wars, but only the Marvel-related characters are aware of it?
Basically, fuck Alan Moore.

I don't think he even implied that he'd have to intervene. He just said "well, of course they're not fucking killing off Peter, no matter what Bendis wants".
>>
>>87446450
Yeah, I was the Bobfag there. Amazing shit, unlike most others.

They had to fuck Ultimates with Civil War II didn't they?
Four fucking issues as tie-ins jesus fuck, so many shit that could be happening but no... fucking tie-ins.

Hope Ultimates^2 does not have this shit.

I think Illyana cracking might've been more on her, herself.
She was already kinda unstable.

Namor flooded Wookiekanda partially at Emma's goading during a psychic boning, too.

Scott was really the one that did the best at restraining himself. Hell, you could even say that him stealing the bits of the hosts was him following a sort of noblese oblige.

Like you said though, he only cracked under durres brought on externally. Hell, even then he still pushed Dark Phoenix down and helped Hope get control (as he planned all along).

Still though, Rachel, of all the Phoenix Force hosts, easily had the most shit leveled against her, and she never cracked.
Similar things could be said for AoA Jean.

Here's a few observations and thoughts I have on the Phoenix:
When Celestial energy is prevalent it sorta stabilizes the Phoenix. Maybe because the Celestials and Phoenix share similar agendas. That also puts them at competing purposes. Think about it, when the Phoenix comes up against an 'Apocalypse', someone usually wins definitively.
If you have Summers blood, you're already at an advantage to controlling that shit. Add some Grey blood in, and you're unstoppable.
The Phoenix and "Apocalypse" are on roughly equivalent footing power-wise.
Sinister should actually be trusted with all these matters. I mean, he made Nate Grey, who allegedly was on par with the Dark Phoenix in terms of output, albeit not sustainable.

>The Phoenix and "Apocalypse" are on roughly equivalent footing power-wise

yup, it's explicitly stated but feat-wise? Not so much in my opinion the best ones come from Sentry anyways , I can't imagine Black Bolt dispersing Phoenixclops like he did En Sabah Nur for example.

>Feat wise
There was that one time that Archangel as "Apocalypse" told the Phoenix to fuck off.

>Lapham AoA
Hey somebody else read that.
Where the hell is Prophet these days?
That ending was kinda weird, but dayum ApocJean was awesome.
>DeathBob needed help to stop Exitar
>ApocJean held off an endless tide of Celestial killers
I'd say that's an incredible feat right there--and she didn't even have powers.

What about the whole "magic is falling apart" theme running through Dr. Strange and Scarlet Witch?

>while the omniverse is those universes, the negative zone, the neutral zone, the realm of the abstracts,

Doesn't every individual universe have their own negative zone, neutral zone, etc?
>>
>>87449660
There's only one Neutral Zone. It's basically the omniverse's membrane. Likewise, there's supposed to only be one negative zone but the fact that there's a bunch of alt-universe stories with their own unique Annihiluses complicates that.
>>
Comfy thread lads.

I feel like good discussion threads like this are so few and far between these days on /co/.
>>
>>87449796
Yeah, exactly, I know there's an Ultimate Annihilus.

And if there's only one, it'd be packed, as mad scientists from a million different universes all visited it.
>>
>>87449942
>comfyfag

You need to stay
>>
>>87449980
Yeah. There's an Ultimate Annihilus and the Negative Zone in the Ultimate Universe is called the N-Zone and works differently than the 616 Negative Zone.

AND YET, when 616 Galactus got shunted off to the Ultimate Universe, The Maker defeated him by sending him to the N-Zone. But then, the 616 Eternals pulls Galactus back into 616 via a Negative Zone portal.

Meaning Galactus got sent into the Ultimate Negative Zone and ended up in the 616 Negative Zone. This would imply that they are actually part of the same whole in some way. You can theorize all you want about how that works but there's apparently only one negative zone despite all the weird contradictions that presents.

>>87446546
Yeah, I'm actually not big on Ewing bringing back the Omniverse term outside of just the Captain Britain Corps using it, but he's a Marvel UK boy so that's no surprise.
>>
>>87450622
Thanks, you're a very nice and welcoming anon.
>>
>>87451189
What's up with the CBC anyways?
>>
>>87451410
They haven't appeared since Secret Wars so their current status is up in the air. Spider-UK was a member of the Captain Britain Corps, but I didn't read Web Warriors so I'm not sure if it ever got brought up there.

All-new Inhumans had Luna going to the Braddock Academy (until she dropped out), so Brian is probably fine at least.
>>
>>87445041
Don't even joke about that last part.
I was so happy that they (with the exception of Johnny and Ben) were let go with dignity.
I don't wanna see the FF get Benis'd.
>>
last minute bump
>>
>>87451972
I don't even think he is joking.

They flat out said that any book they make gets offered to Bendis first. Bendis has said that he wants to have written every Marvel cape.

Just one more for the bucket list.
>>
>>87429486
that awful art
>>
>>87450926
Not neccesarily.

If you sent Galatucus into the middle of nowhere - let's say, Ultimate Universe's Omaha Nebraska - logically, anyone who wanted to bring him back would best do it by bringing him through 616's Omaha.

Same with the negative zone.
