Hello everybody,

There has been a lot of great discussions regarding the various 2099 universes that have popped up thanks to the return of Spider-Man 2099. Since there is a LOT of confusion regarding the character a discussion with experts on the subject was conducted here. As far as we are concerned, the discussion is closed until new developments are revealed in print about these various 2099 universes.

To make sure people are making proper edits in the future, I want to remind every one of the specific 2099 Universes we have on the site. When adding 2099 related material to the site PLEASE DO THE PROPER RESEARCH. If you can't do the proper research, then ask for help. If you edit without the proper research, your edits WILL be rolled back.

Here is how we are organizing the various 2099 Universes:


 * Earth-928 is the original 2099 AD. Any character bios from this reality will only cover 2099 material that was published during the original 2099 Run. Meaning everything from to  only. Anything pertaining to 2099 from  onward will be handled differently. They are as follows:


 * Earth-TRN588 is the reality designation we have assigned to the Miguel O'Hara who appeared in Superior Spider-Man #17 to present. If you want details on WHY, please see the discussion referenced above. We have also decided that this TRN also includes the Punisher seen in Contest of Champions Vol 2 and the Doom 2099 seen in the Uncanny Avengers Vol 1.


 * Earth-TRN589 is the Dystopia 2099 that was first seen in . It is the world where Maestro rules the planet. There are significant differences between that reality and Earth-9200. Again, if you have any questions why we can to this decision, see the discussion above.


 * Earth-TRN590 is the current version of 2099 that has been seen during Civil War II. Again, if you have any questions why, see above.

'''There are also other versions of 2099 that exist out there. Please make sure you can make a distinction before you edit.'''

PLEASE BE ADVISED:

This is how we are going to address all these issues going forward. No further discussion is required regarding this matter. Yes, we've read Spider-Verse. All the necessary research has been done.

So until there is an official explanation provided, we will be transcribing the information as described above.

Other Points

I also want to make very that anything relating to Earth-928 will only contain information during the original 2099 Run. This includes any video games that reference the year 2099. 'video games are almost never considered cannon. I cannot make this more clear.

Rule of Thumb:

When it comes to 2099, don't make assumptions. Do The Proper Research.

Presently...

As people assumed that a lot of the new stuff involved Earth-928, from our editorial position that assumption is now considered incorrect at this time. As such, if people want to clean up articles and create new pages for characters, please feel free to do so.

Thanks!
