...So I guess it's not completely without grounds. srug
I was more thinking of it as a attempt to streamline the various creations stories that Marvel has had over the years. Sise-Neg, Ultimate Nullifier, The Alien Entity, Captain Marvel and Entropy along with the Rebirth of Galan to Galactus from the previous Multiverse and more I'm probably forgetting. I also like that they have established that there is no difference between Eternity and Multi-Eternity as was once the case, building on the way Eternity was once portrayed in a Doctor Strange comic iirc. It'll change again though in the future most likely.
In the end I'll give Al Ewing props for trying to connect the various lines, but interesting to see how the War between the Abstracts will play out in the longer run.
