I understand that Eternity is the living embodiment of the universe and all that, but what about other alternate universes? (Ultimate Marvel, Spider-Gwen's world, Old-Man Logan world, etc). Does Eternity include all of them as well, or does each alternate universe has its own local alternate Eternity?

Every universe has their own eternity, but there's also a multiverse version of it.

This. Think of it as an infinite number of little Eternities contained in a giant box that is the Prime Eternity.

Reminds me of those Silver Surfer issues during Secret Wars, where Doom was Eternity but the Shaper of Worlds and Glorian attempted their own universe-building.
-Pav, who needs to go back and re-read that run...You were Spider-Man then. You and Peter had agreed on it. But he came back right when you started feeling comfortable.
You know what it means when he comes back.
"You're not the better one, Peter. You're just older."

Doom wasn't Eternity. He was the most powerful being but did not function or exist like Eternity, nor did he even truly control the source of the power: Owen Reece. Originally Posted by Pav

It's been a minute, but I believe they actually showed the new "Secret Wars Eternity" with Doom's face/mask. Originally Posted by davew128
