The Pentaverate must never be exposed. Because he is leaving Earth 616 behind But not for Earth 1610, the Ultimate Universe.

A world that does have a Peter Parker in it And a Liz Allan And a Genome Isotope Accelerator, and[...]

Moon Knight time! But first, it's getting closer to a new multi-timezone and timeline endgame for the Avengers, with a reminder that for some the number 616 isn't just a number of the Marvel Universe reality While 666 is called the "number of the beast" in most manuscripts of The Book of Revelation, a fragment[...]

In Marvel Comics, 616 is the numerical designation of the Marvel Universe, on the multiversal scale, given to it by Alan Moore courtesy of Dave Thorpe and Alan Davis, grabbed by Chris Claremont for Excalibur and the X-Men, and then prominently used by Dan Slott in Spider-Verse, Jonathan Hickman in Secret Wars and Jason Aaron[...]

A while ago, Bleeding Cool predicted that Marvel was getting rid of the 616 nomenclature for the Marvel Universe Created by Dave Thorpe/Alan Moore for Captain Britain, as a self-deprecatory joke, suggesting that the Marvel Universe was insignificant in the grander scheme of things, the term was popularised by Chris Claremont in the X-books[...]

It's more of an area code thing. But if anyone wants to show solidarity with the previous Marvel 616 Universe, with unstable Iso-8, a non-mutant killing Terrigen Mists, a Doctor Doom with a messed up face, and magic that works properly, here's where you can go….   Okay, so it has nothing to do with Marvel Comics[...]

Back in May, Bleeding Cool looked at the use of the term "616" by Marvel to denote the main continuity in which their stories were told And suggested that its use was about to be curtailed. Invented by Dave Thorpe/Alan Moore for the Captain Britain comics, it was picked up by Chris Claremont for X-Men and[...]

It originated with Captain Britain, the idea that the Marvel universe was number 616 in the Multiverse, a joke about perspective given that DC Comics had Earth 1 and Earth 2 It was a self deprecatory joke that the Marvel Earth was a much lower rank, 616, a more insignificant number. It was picked up by[...]

The Ultimate End comic, part of the Secret Wars spinoff titles shows us a Manhattan with two realities existing simultaneously, the Regular Marvel Universe, the 616 and the Ultimate Universe, 1610 And finding a way to get by, in the full knowledge that Doom doesn't approve of this sort of thing. But is it? At the end[...]

Marvel's Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada and Executive Editor Tom Brevoort have each stated their dislike for the term Earth 616. "I can tell you for sure that those of us actually working on the books virtually never use the term — and I kind of wince inside whenever I hear somebody use it[...]

I remember a time when Marvel's Tom Brevoort said that they never used the "616" sobriquet internally at Marvel Comics Created by Alan Moore for Captain Britain, it identified the dimension in which the Marvel universe occurred DC Comics had Earth 1 and Earth 2, so Marvel had Earth 616 It was a good joke,[...]

Joe Quesada, on defending his decision to publish Spider-Men, when previously he'd said such an Ultimate/616 crossover would mean Marvel was officially out of ideas.
