Originally posted by "Id"So its settled Sise-Neg is a Universal force,
per plot, and word of the writer.
You cant get any clearer than that.
Actually per plot/story and On Panel feats/illustrated depictions,
Sise-Neg was sucking all the power out of entire UniverseS.
Every entire Universe that's located from the 31st Century on down
to before the Original Big Bang that spawned the First Universe. (616)
He jumped from Alternate Reality to the next with ease. (simultaneously absorbing)
He handled Strange/Mordo like children from entire universeS away.
He plucked Mordo while standing in some Alternate Universe while
Mordo was in-between Universes,
he did the same thing to Strange on another occasion.
He remade the alternate reality that Shuma was in.
In the end, it's clearly stated On Panel and artistically illustrated,
that Mordo/Strange rode the explosion of Creation forward in Time,
UNTIL they reached their proper ERA (Universe 616) which is the Present.
Everything I just mentioned took place On Panel!
I could care less if ol' Stevey (almost 40 Years Later)
doesn't understand the cosmic implications his story would have, but they did.
====================================
Again, I argued with Galan about this extensively concerning World's Funnest,
the Writer told me the same shit ...
+++ Mr Master asks Evan Dorkin (Writer of World's Funnest) +++
I'm having a debate with some friends as to what Mxy destroys/
recreates in World's Funnest.
One side says 3 Multiverses ... the other says 1 Multiverse.
Our discussion revolves around the end when Mxy states:
"no more Infinite Earths"
"no more Alternate Universes'
"no more Pats or Futures"
So again, one side equates this to 3 separate Multiverses (Infinite Earths = 1 ... Alternate Universes = 2 ... Pasts/Futures = 3)
While the other equates this to a Multiverse of Infinite Earths, which are
Alternate Universes or variations of Prime Earth logically with Pasts and Futures.
+++ Evan Dorkin (Writer of World's Funnest) Replies +++
"I didn't give any of that any thought, to be honest. The lines you
mention have more to do with summing up the situation/Mxy's
frustration than figuring out or worrying about how the alternate worlds/
universes/dimensions all worked. That stuff's pretty nuts and that was
an obvious point of the comic. I just treated every dimension or world
as a place for the characters to travel to, mess with, and destroy.
Organizing it all was enough work, I wasn't trying to understand it."

----------------------------------------------------------
The Writer had no intention of turning Mxy into a Multi-Multiversal power,
but that's what ended up occurring when WF became canon.
Doesn't matter On Panel the writer defined what Mxy destroyed as a Multiverse,
because Galan gave me the argument how what Mxy destroyed becomes 3 Multiverses,
reasons the writer could have never known since one, that wasn't his aim like Stevie's,
and two,
the cosmological make-up of DC warrants several MultiverseS to be affected by the feat,
something that was obviously of NO concern to Evan Dorkin, just like Stevie. 馃槵
* That aside, I'll never use this "Writer Perspective" garbage again.
One: Many times these guys are more ignorant than we realize (concerning the overall picture)
and two, (most importantly) it spoils the fun of debating.
Heck, we keep running to Writers for answers and we can do away with KMC.
Only respect thread would survive,
and not even since writer's ignorant comment > On Panel occurrences.
