Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)

- The main continuity for the MCU, including the films, One-Shots, tie-in comics and all of the Disney+ series (excluding for What If...? and most of Loki)
- Home reality of "Peter-One".
- The original designation for this reality of Earth-199999 was revealed in Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A-Z Volume 5 hardcover book, which was released in 2008.[2]
- This designation was never referenced to as such in any subsequent official media (with the exception of Sony Animation’s Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)) in the following years nor was referred as such by Marvel Studios themselves, and was confirmed as Earth-616 in Multiverse of Madness. Kevin Feige – head of Marvel Studios as well as former-chief creative officer of Marvel Entertainment – later began referring to the main reality of the MCU as Earth-616 as well.[3]
- An event known as the Blip played a major role in the events of this reality, with half of all life within the universe being erased from existence by the villain known as Thanos in Avengers: Infinity War (2018) before being restored back to life five years later in Avengers: Endgame (2019) by the Avengers.
