Unknown.
Good questions..
My thought has always been that Marvel, DC, Image, Real world, etc, etc...are all seperate "multiverses." Essentially each are a collection of universes, comprised of different realities, which are interelated by a common link which exist within them all...such as THOTU.
What seperates DC, Marvel, Image, Real world etc so they are not defined as one multiverse?
Answer: No "common link" and the laws that each are governed by.
THOTU does not exist in the DCU, Image Universe, Dark Horse Universe, etc..etc...nor do the laws that govern it.
The Omniverse would be a a loose unlinked collection of all these distinct multiverses.
How do we know that the Omniverse in itself isn't just one big multiverse?
Short answer: We don't...but until a common link is found relating all respective multiverses..such as the HOTU..I believe its fair to assume that each multiverse is a seperate entity, or in lamans terms it has a seperate or discrete existence.
Confusing..eh.. 😕 😄
