Marvel 1985 #6
Clyde was originally from an alternate reality. In this reality heroes and villains only exist in the form comic book character's. Yet unknowingly a single and vastly powerful mutant lives among them. When he was just a boy, he hypnotized the entire town and raised his farther from the grave. Admitting to his mother that he is the cause of the troubles, and has no control over his powers. His mother lashes out in fear and confusion. Leaving Clyde in a vegetable state for several years.
Marvel 1985 #6
20 years later (current time: 1985), Clyde was moved to another mental institute. The nurses neglected to bring his comic books. This greatly disturbed Clyde, and begin to manifest and control the comic book characters. Which jump started the entire fiasco in Marvel’s 1985 series. http://img528.imageshack.us/img528/65/1985016.jpg http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/4479/1985017.jpg
1985 #6
Clyde’s childhood friend Jerry, confronts Clyde. Returning his comic book collection, and pleading him to stop. Red Skull seemingly kills Jerry, which triggers Clyde to act and return the characters from where they came. Clyde then leaves with Marvel hero’s, back to the Marvel Universe where scientist are more accustomed to “such” talents.
Fantastic Four #568
Back in the Marvel Universe (Apparently Reality 616). Clyde is subdued due to his brain damage, and a cybernetic machine of Reed Richards design. Yet in the near future, several Marvel Villains unite and break into Clyde’s holding Cell (Area 87). Awakening Clyde, also awakens his appetite for destruction. Apparently killing all intruders (among them a watcher). He lives for billions of years, becoming the master of Time and Space, crisscross through realties. http://img213.imageshack.us/img213/5310/5682425.jpg http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/5330/56826.jpg

so, not to "spam" the thread, but where exactly is the link between 1985 clyde and the 'marquis of death'? i read the 1985 series, though i don't remember as many details as i probably should, and i know that millar spoke of all of his works tying together, but where's the transition? what lets us know that clyde was/is doom's master?
Oh-ha, another nigh allmigty mutant reality warper? Seems as if Marvel never runs out of those - four or so down (MJJ, Proteus, SW, FR) another one to go.

Clyde Wyncham :
Originally responsible for bringing about the events of 1985, Clyde Wyncham was imprisoned for his crimes by Reed Richards and locked away in Area 87 on Earth-616. His alternate-reality self is The Marquis of Death, Doctor Doom's former Master and a being of God-like power.
Alternate Versions
The Marquis of Death is a future incarnation of Clyde Wyncham from a Parallel Universe where he escaped his imprisonment from Area-87 and had his mind fully restored following an attack led by several incredibly powerful supervillains...all of whom he killed with but a thought.
Another future version of Clyde is the Doctor Doom of The Old Man Logan timeline.
---
the 616 "Dooms master" version, the 1985 version, and the Old man Logan version are alternate reality counterparts.
