User blog comment:ADour/Marvel's next event is-- SECRET WARS!/@comment-26118551-20141017071513

Thinking about the original "Secret Wars", I've build a theory of what's going to happen: in the finale of "Time Runs Out", Earth-616 is destroyed in an incursion and, like other universes around the Marvel multiverse, some pieces of it are collected by someone (probably the story's big bad) to create a new "Battleworld". The characters that appear in the Alex Ross image are some of the survivors of the final incursion that destroyed their universes. And, as its name is "Secret Wars", maybe when they defeat the big bad, they fix the collapsing multiverse and restore order to it, with only the protagonists of this new "Secret Wars" remembering what happened, making it a secret.
