What if in one universe the Big Bang was called the Big Fu

What if in one universe the Big Bang was called the Big Fu

Probably

It doesn't have a red tie-in stamp on it, it doesn't belong to any mcu canon

I disagree with this, but I will kneel to the law of this land

 

[myusernameyes]

It gets even weirder since the Alligator Loki Universe is also a divergence.
And for the 1872 situation it's like saying the Marvel Noir Universe is a divergent timeline off of Earth 616

Ahhhh, akshually, divergence can occur at any point in time
S'pose Peter's parents were born much earlier than they did in the main universe, and they had him earlier
Simple

The Eternals comic didn't have a red stamp, did it?

In all seriousness it would take a serious point of divergence to set the family lineage back years or even centuries

 

[myusernameyes]

Although... Considering Peter's grandfather is also named Peter...
https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Peter_Parker_I_(Earth-616)

Could it be that he is a variant of Peter's grandpa and not Peter himself?

 

[Pro Bot]

Yes, it would be incredibly unlikely. Virtually impossible, but still technically possible.

There's the other characters though

 

[BabyBomber]

1872 has such a weird ass excuse for a divergence

The serious point of divergence was an atom across the universe zigging instead of zagging. Some Multiverse calculus later, and there's an Elseworld instead of a What If

The Eternals comic didn't have a red stamp, did it?

they did not but they did have the marvel studios logo on them

The wiki assumes it to be the "inspired canon"

The Marvel Database has it as a diverged reality for 199999

 

[eloesch289]

Benedict Cumberbatch Texted Kevin Feige ‘What the F—?’ Over Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom; They Won’t Face Off Until ‘Secret Wars’ in 2027

Benedict Cumberbatch says Doctor Strange is sitting out "Avengers: Doomsday," so he won't face off against Robert Downey Jr's Doctor Doom until 2027.

so strange wont be in doomsday, but secret wars…

 

[BabyBomber]

The wiki assumes it to be the "inspired canon"

The pages themselves still include content from 500 Years War. They include a lot of non-contradictory Inspired By material. It's probably the most based thing the MCU Wiki does

Yea the divergence was a random atom shifting and having butterfly effect consequences on the universe that led to a Marvelized Wild West. Hence the "What the Hell"/Elseworld nature of it.

That's the difference to me. The Eternals comic was release as a direct tie-in and promotion for the Eternals film. The TVA comic is not made by Marvel Studios intended as part of the MCU and therefore doesn't have a place on a timeline about the MCU. But that is a distinction important to me and if others don't share it I can add the comic.

I tried to undo it by stating that it technically isn't a divergence but they undid my undoing lmao

 

[BabyBomber]

While I've been more or less convinced of TVA's place in canon since its announcement, I wouldn't be opposed to waiting for the miniseries' conclusion before adding it. Just in the event that there is irreconcilable content and for the sake of having all of our ducks in a row
