Talk:Universe (universe)

Shouldn't this article mention how other continuities treat the origin of the Universe, if they have any. Also, in Transformers, the universe is not "all there is". That's the Multiverse. The only fiction summarised in this article is a Marvel comics story, before the Universe stuff that had multiple universes. Which is how universes work in Transformers. Also...

That's what "universe" means. The sum total of all that exits. You can't make sense of the Marvel story if change what "universe" means. Anyway, I don't think it matters. Universes in the multiverse are self contained, so that stuff in Universe B doesn't exist as far as Universe A is concerned. But maybe this article needs a continuity note? "The universe is the universe in the Marvel Comics continuity"? - Starfield 11:44, 19 June 2010 (EDT)

Scope

[edit]

This article was originally conceived as the counterpart to the old realms, that is, "the stuff that exploded out of the void from the remnants of the old realms." The article was called "universe" because that's what it was called in the comic. It had the "(universe)" disambiguation for lack of anything better. ("Universe (Marvel comics)" would certainly be confused with Transformers Universe (Marvel comic).) The title turned out to be unfortunate since the scope of the article expanded to include things unrelated to "the stuff that exploded out of the void from the remnants of the old realms." It turned into something vaguely contradictory. I suggest the article be rescoped back to just "the stuff that exploded out of the void from the remnants of the old realms." Maybe with a different title. The best I can come up with is "Post-void universe." - Starfield 22:20, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
