History

Earth-TRN566 was a reality that existed in the Sixth Infinity, prior to the Seventh Cosmos of the Multiverse.

Many evolved cultures existed, including Earth, the Shi'ar Empire, Kree, Skrulls, and Badoon, where life occurred in similar fashion to Earth-616 and Earth-92131.

Earth[]

This Earth's history also has some similarities to Earth-616 and Earth-92131. On Earth, Charles Xavier founded the X-Men and the Underground,[1] mutants fighting for a world that feared and hated them,[2] opposing the Sentinels, Magneto,[3] or the Friends of Humanity[1] among others. Dr. Bruce Banner was turned into the Hulk by a Gamma Bomb while trying to save Rick Jones,[3] and Spider-Man was a hero in New York City.[4]

Taa[]

On Taa there existed a luxuriant civilization of sciences and arts.[5]

The Brothers' creation[]

At some point, the Living Tribunal, along with the Spectre, created The Brothers,[5] guardians of the Marvel and DC Megaverses.[6]

M'kraan Crystal tampered with by Demons[]

Around that time, affected by the manipulation of D'Spayre and of his master the Dweller-in-Darkness the M'kraan Crystal started enlarging, reaching the level it could engulf all reality.[7] Eventually, the Nexus' tampering caused the primal matter of the universe to alter, unleashing plagues upon the inhabited worlds.[5]

Reaction on Taa[]

On the world of Taa, struck by the decimation of their people, Galen and his colleagues decided to face the end of the multiverse by travelling to the Cosmic Egg.[5]

Shi'ar and X-Men intervention[]

The Shi'ar and X-Men united their efforts, sending the Phoenix Force, guardian of the Crystal, to halt his destruction.[5]

Combining with the entire lifeforce of the universe, the Phoenix was able to purge the crystal of its impurity, only for it to quickly explode, extinguishing all life, yet united into Xavier's dream. At that very moment, the Taa-an ship arrived into the Cosmic Egg, with only Galan as survivor, greeted by the Eternity, the sentience of the universe, who announced him his destiny as Galactus.[5]

The Dweller's plan failed, with all life gone in peace and without fear of their end, and the Dweller, as the last entity to despair, was fed upon by D'Spayre,[5] although he was seemingly eventually able to escape to the subsequent multiverse.[8]

Legacy[]

The omnipotent Living Tribunal, still holding in his hand the Brothers, was part of the new Multiverse.[9]

Notes

  • Although based on X-Men: The Animated Series and Spider-Man, the comics X-Men Adventures, X-Men Adventures (Vol. 2), X-Men Adventures (Vol. 3), Adventures of the X-Men, Spider-Man Adventures, and Adventures of Spider-Man weren't set on Earth-92131 but on what is known as Earth-TRN566.[10]
  • One of the divergent points between Earth-TRN566 and Earth-92131 is that events similar to the first season of Spider-Man occurred, given that the first 13 issues of Spider-Man Adventures were adapted from the show, but then went off in their own direction. For example, Earth-TRN566's Spider-Man had a different first encounter with the Vulture compared to the show's episodes. Adventures of Spider-Man #6 and Adventures of Spider-Man #10 established that Spider-Man had a long-time history with the Fantastic Four already; meanwhile, Earth-92131's Spider-Man wouldn't meet the Fantastic Four until the Secret Wars. Adventures of Spider-Man #5 also references events that happened in the The Alien Costume 3-parter yet depict the Rhino as having been fired by the Kingpin, which never happened on the show.
  • Another point where Earth-TRN566 differs from Earth-92131 is that only events based on the first two seasons plus part of the third season of X-Men: The Animated Series occurred, since X-Men Adventures to X-Men Adventures (Vol. 3) only adapted those. While events based on the Phoenix and Dark Phoenix episodes are canonical, episodes such as "Cold Comfort" didn't happen in this reality, as evidenced by the fact that in the cartoon Quicksilver was part of X-Factor and Cyclops and Havok still did not know they were brothers, yet in the comics Quicksilver is still part of Magneto's Brotherhood,[11] while it's public knowledge that Cyclops and Havok are brothers.[12]
  • The Dweller-in-Darkness was responsible for the destruction of Earth-TRN566, and has no known counterpart or presence on Earth-92131. It's likely that his presence on Earth-TRN566 was the major divergent point between that Earth and Earth-92131, since the latter Earth wasn't destroyed.
  • This reality hasn't been assigned its own number because, as noted by the Appendix to the Handbook of the Marvel Universe, the Sixth Cosmos would have a differing numbering system than the current one. Despite this, some of the realities which diverged from it have been given their own reality numbers, presumably due to their existence being separated from the rest of the former cosmos.

Trivia

  • Curiously, while The Adventures of the X-Men #12 suggests that Galactus did not exist until after Earth-TRN566's destruction, a superhero theme park in Spider-Man Adventures #14, the first story not based on an episode of the Spider-Man cartoon, depicts a food stand called "Galactus Goodies," designed after Galactus' helmet.
