You're not wrong, just missing some info.
The Marvel Universe then (in ecret Wars as you pointed out) was a Multiverse:
This the Beyonder in SS,
the writer is telling us how he just discovered that our Universe (Eternity)
is in fact, a Multiverse
"Odd thing He had noticed about our Universe"
Namely that it is many-layered,
composed of a seemingly Endless Number of Dimensions,
indeed, it is a Multiverse"
.............................................................................
And as we know, Eternity was/is the Universe in that series/before and after:
(from Secret Wars)
Originally posted by kgkg I do agree that there has been some evidence of Eternity being Multiverse since logically if other abstacts has been shown to be multiversal effect that Eternity must also be multiversal/ or have a multiversal concept.
Right, Eternity has always been encompassed the sentience of the prime Multiverse.
Originally posted by kgkg point being marvel has never been claear on it's postion of multiversal/universal differences when showing eternity evidence for both sides exist.
Actually, Marvel has defined it clearly on panel:
"and where one Eternity would ensure a boudless Universe,
a multi-Eternity would ensure a boundless Multiverse"
.............................................................................
That's All of Eternity, or Eternity's totality better said, it's the infinite prime Multiverse!
Captain Universe, to differentiate Eternity's totality with his Aspects,
nick named Eternity, 'multi-Eternity' ... but ... he was speaking about Eternity:
"What was revealed to me through the Cosmic Entity known as ETERNITY"
Originally posted by kgkg Not necessary
how does one know if the Eternity is being referred the universal aspect or multiversal
Because universal aspects are alternate realities,
stated on panel by a Universal Aspect of Eternity:
An Aspect of Eternity (a single universal space/time continuum) was nullified.
"I am the spirit of the Universe that once existed here.
I am an aspect of all Eternity
.............................................................................
(Eternity was nigh-infinite at this time .... now Eternity is completely infinite)
"Of the nigh-infinite number of Aspects that comprise my Totality,
I am the only Aspect to succumb to death"
.............................................................................
See, Eternity's conscious totality is the infinite prime Multiverse,
his Aspects, make up individual Universes,
but notice that,
even the individual Universes, refer to themselves as if they were Eternity the Multiverse.
This is because Eternity is one consciousness, everything within the prime Multiverse.
