Introduction
According to the latest physics theories, our universe has been expanding at an ever increasing rate ever since the Big Bang, and that rate will continue to increase. The stars aren’t just moving away from each other, new “space” is actually being created in between the existing space. We may be receiving light today from a galaxy that was 10 billion light years away from us 10 billion years ago, but today, thanks to expansion, that galaxy is more like 30 billion light years away. And it’s moving away ever faster. In fact, the rate of expansion isn’t even bound by the law that nothing can move faster than the speed of light, so 10 billion years from now it will be so far away, we won’t ever receive light from it again.
And 10 billion years is a drop in the bucket in cosmological terms. Scientists think that eventually, the universe will have existed so mind-bogglingly long and be expanding at so mind-bogglingly fast a rate that it will rip itself apart. Keep in mind that at this point nothing will exist but black holes and they will be so far spread apart that any stray photons they would happen to emit would never reach each other. But the cool thing is this: you know what happens when you rip a nearly infinite number of black holes spread nearly infinitely far apart? You get an infinite number of Big Bangs, creating an infinite number of new universes that will start the process all over again.

Even better, though, in another part of the infinite cosmos, Batman is real, and he is kicking crime’s ass. Because if all of what I’ve written above is true, there has to be a God. There is no way that every possible thing can be true and God cannot be true. And if God is true, then – get ready for it – somewhere out there is the perfect universe, the one true universe that all other universes are just pale imitations of. It is a universe like our own, but turned up to 11, where all of the coolest things imaginable are all mashed together and coexist side by side in the real world.
Here, then, is that thought experiment. Call it a leap of faith: this is the world that I believe in—the world that I live in. In short, this timeline won’t necessarily reflect what you’re used to in your history books, your literature, your films, your television shows or your comic books. This is what really happened.
Enjoy, ladies and gentlemen, enjoy.

A Note about Canon
Weaving the great tangle of alternate histories into a coherent ultimate timeline is both an art and a science, and it is a gift that I believe God has blessed me with. (Although if you check the Internet, you will see that I am not alone. I will try to give credit wherever I can when I steal other people’s ideas.*) I have been compiling this chronicle for many years, and I have learned a few things along the way, some ultimate truths to guide me in my task:
- No time travel. I love Doctor Who, I really do, but if you start introducing time travel, even just a little, everything unravels into an incoherent mess. No, in the one true universe, there is only one timeline. Things happen and that’s that. Move on. (Caveat: there are multiple, parallel universe within the multiverse. See below...)
- If the universe we think we know is a shadow of the one true universe, then the one true universe shouldn’t deviate too much from our own, or it would become unrecognizable. For the most part, that means world history remains intact as we know it.
- It takes a miracle for someone to come back from the dead. Jesus Christ did it. Unless someone’s narrative is similarly compelling, they stay dead.
- When there is a conflict, the strongest storyline wins. Because the universe should be beautiful and mysterious and interesting, above all.
- I have a pretty high threshold, but even I have my breaking point, so the moronically bad story lines just never happened. (Highlander II: The Quickening? The Godfather Part III? Red Superman and Blue Superman? I honestly don’t even know what you’re talking about.)
* However, note that the timeline I have created ignores one of the most common “shared universe” concepts: the Wold Newton family. I believe the Wold Newton concept is flawed for three reasons: 1)
it relies on a meteorite to explain phenomena that already have explanations; 2) it forces relationships where none need exist; and 3) it is far too limited in overall scope for my tastes, focusing more on certain time periods and characters than others.

Regarding Turok and Andar: How were you able to determine the year date for when they went to and returned from the Lost Valley?
ReplyDeleteIn the original stories, the only indication we have of the time frame is that it was before the arrival of Columbus (1492). Since the original Turok series ran for 28 years with Western Publishing (1954-1982), I simply subtracted 500 years, putting Turok and Andar in the Lost Valley from 1454-1482.
DeleteThe level of detail that went into this is absolutely staggering. Well done, sir.

ReplyDeleteIEEE Project Domain management in software engineering is distinct from traditional project deveopment in that software projects have a unique lifecycle process that requires multiple rounds of testing, updating, and faculty feedback. A IEEE Domain project Final Year Projects for CSE system development life cycle is essentially a phased project model that defines the organizational constraints of a large-scale systems project. The methods used in a IEEE DOmain Project systems development life cycle strategy Project Center in India provide clearly defined phases of work to plan, design, test, deploy, and maintain information systems.
ReplyDeleteThis is enough for me. I want to write software that anyone can use, and virtually everyone who has an internet connected device with a screen can use apps written in JavaScript. JavaScript Training in Chennai JavaScript was used for little more than mouse hover animations and little calculations to make static websites feel more interactive. Let’s assume 90% of all websites using JavaScript use it in a trivial way. That still leaves 150 million substantial JavaScript Training in Chennai JavaScript applications.
