    Default Foundations in Time: Past, Present, Future All at Once???

    I'm sure this must exist in the MU. Is there a region, universe, extradimensional realm or plane of existence where Time has completely merged and the past, the present and the future all exist in the same bubble...which paradoxically does allow events to progress up to a certain point before Time collapses again on itself, thus comprising a "chronological" day?

    Anyone know?

    Maybe the The M'kraan Crystal?

    …a huge pink crystal of unknown origins, which was older than known history. Inside of the crystal there was a beautiful alien city, that outstretched, by far, the "logical" volume that should have been allowable. Also there was no movement, as time and space had no meaning here. At the center of the city was a glowing energy sphere, which hosted a neutron galaxy. The sun of this neutron galaxy was a nexus point of all matter and antimatter of not only the universe, but all the different realities in existence.

    That was then... Now, the M'Kraan Crystal is a Resort/Casino complete with a multidimensional revolving door that caters to everyone and anyone regardless of race, color, gender, or origin.

    Not sure about the Marvel Universe, but this has happened in the Whoniverse. Time collapsed, so you have dinosaurs roaming around in cities, and Charles Dickens being interviewed on BBC Breakfast.

    This is exactly what I have in mind. I'm certain Marvel has to have something analogous to that.

    Would love it if a universe like that existed, even if somewhat limited, since there's really no way to know all future events and technology as writers. But a universe like that would be a great place to have Golden Age, Silver Age, far-flung distant future characters, etc., all interact in "real time" in a common environment, so to speak. It wouldn't surprise me if the Grandmaster and Kang haven't already created this universe. Just imagine the chess matches they'd have.

    Mind. Blown. Amazing question.

    This may be the closest you can find in the MU. The Tower of Time in the Bermuda Triangle. The concepts introduced in the Skull the Slayer series are ripe for exploring.

    Sounds like Immortus’ Limbo.
