Marvel Animated Universes (2000s) - Timeline

Not sure if this question can be ask here, but do we have a chronological order of watching the MAU? Because I'm pretty sure watching that they went into the past is still a continuity of the same timeline/year.

Just finished the viewing order.

Now, when you get to Avengers: Black Panther's Quest (aka Avengers Assemble season five), what I've been told is that the Spider-Man we see in that season, despite looking like MSM's Spidey, is actually the same one we saw in Ultimate Spider-Man. Yes, Drake Bell's version of Spider-Man but now voiced by Robbie Daymond and in MSM's design. (But it's NOT MSM's Spider-Man in Black Panther's Quest.)

After the events of Season 4 ("Secret Wars") not everything went back together properly when Earth reformed. Meaning, this supposed Counter-Earth where Marvel's Spider-Man (2017) took place had parts from it's world placed/merged onto the main MAU Earth. From what I gather, that included Horizon High (which I theorize "USM" Spidey took it upon himself to guard, possibly teach at, after graduating S.H.I.E.L.D. Academy) and MSM's Vulture; who might have been a present threat as soon as he arrived on the main Earth.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. I'll do my best to help.
 
Unrelated, but holy **** if this is real.

I... actually want Disney+ now, especially for the 90s shows (which, depending on who you ask, are in the same universe).
X-Men
Spider-Man
Iron Man
Fantastic Four
The Incredible Hulk
Avengers: United They Stand (?)
Spider-Man Unlimited
Silver Surfer
Last time I checked the continuity errors were minimal, so I always thought of them as the same dispite the "official" word, cause X-Men connects to Spider-Man connects to Iron Man connects to The Incredible Hulk connects to Fantastic Four connects back to X-Men and Spider-Man. Silver Surfer is probably not connected because of continuity errors with Fantastic Four, but maybe Avengers: United They Stand could be, dispite Captain America's episode in Spider-Man.

Those shows consist of 5 or 6 different realities; officially. Hardly a universe, even if people like on YouTube want to argue it's one...

Then again, I'm the only person who's actually paying this much attention to the current (and only true) Marvel Animated Universe; outside of folks who want to whine and rant about it for views on YouTube.
I'll stick with that one. I don't think I could sit through most of those 90s shows.

5 realities.
Interestingly, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man and Fantastic Four used to be separate realities before being merged, so I don't think they always get it right. In fact, the 1967 Spider-Man show is in two realities, Earth-67 and Earth-6799 because a guide book contradicted Spider-Verse and Into the Spider-Verse.

They might as well be a single reality, at least 5 of them anyway. The X-Men in their show form appear on Fantastic Four, Iron Man is in Spider-Man, etc..

This isn't the only Marvel Animated Universe.

Spider-Man/Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends/Hulk

X-Men/Spider-Man

Iron Man/The Incredible Hulk/Fantastic Four

Marvel Anime

Wolverine and the X-Men/The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest heroes!

The Offenders
I don't think I could sit through most of those 90s shows.
To be honest, the only good ones were X-Men and Spider-Man, and those two officially share a reality.

So I tried looking through old posts, and it didn't seem like this has been brought up yet, but forgive me if I'm mistaken.
For your Earth-8096, apparently Christopher Yost has confirmed on Twitter that Spectacular Spider-Man is part of this Universe.
Reference:
I noticed you didn't take statements from the creators as canon unless a Canon Universe Number was given, but seeing as Earth-8096 is the "Yost-Verse" I personally believe this statement is a bit more credible.
However, Spectacular Spider-Man is already designated to Earth-26496, so I guess it's really up to the person whether they consider it canon or not.

Either way, I think adding it couldn't hurt, especially since it's really easy to figure out when the show would take place. The episodes take place really close together, and they're almost always mentioning what holiday it is, so you can in the very least figure out the months.

But it's all up to you since it's your timeline.

I'm not sure what you're asking me to do. Add something to the Earth-8096 timeline or...?

They believe that you should add it, but acknowledge it's your choice.

Considering that it was only Spectacular Spider-Man at heart, I don't see it as a canonical series.

I'd probably add it, but if you don't include it due to a pre established reality number, I'd understand if you decided not to.

It really comes down to preference. It's the person who created this Universe vs The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A-Z Volume 4.

I'd say to do whatever feels right to you.

Technically, he never confirmed that it was the Spectacular Spider-Man Spider-Man, just that it was originally intended to be.

When I get Disney+, I'll begin adding timestamps to this and the Earth-8096 timelines.

I kinda want to do a DC Animated Universe timeline next, but I know that Matt of Watchtower Database is already working on one currently. So I'll wait on that.
 
Okay Earth-8096 should be done for now. Aside from some comic and movie material I'll have to dig up, am I missing any flashbacks in Avengers: EMH and Wolverine and the X-Men?

EDIT : I should mention that Disney+ lists "Powerless" as last; presumably because of the Surtur cliffhanger.
Maybe they'll make a movie on there that will wrap everything up? Fingers crossed.

Disney+ might just have an error. It's mostly sound on episode order, but they often mess up unfortunately.
 


Oh for Christ's sake, eyepatch/Stormbreaker Thor is in MSM2017's next episode.

Screw it, he time travels 6 years in the past to Counter-Earth. That's my reasoning.
 
I'm not the only one who notices these continuity errors btw. Many Marvel Animation followers have pointed out the glaring inconsistencies that are in these animated shows when they try to connect to each other.
They even get original voice actors back like Nova's from USM in the GotG cartoon, yet connect it to MSM? Oooof.

Marvel needs some kind of guidebook or something to explain these inconsistencies, no matter how convoluted.

Pahaps it's an alternative Counter-Earth Thor with Stormbreaker?

Nope. One Asgard per universe. Counter Earth doesn't mean Counter Asgard.

Then again, that's only my theory because it's the only way this fits together when I try to make sense of it.

Crap, your right.

I guess time on Counter Earth isn't synced with the primary Earth. I can't think of any other way other than to sci-fi it.

Okay I watched the episode.

1.) It wasn't Stormbreaker.
2.) You don't see Thor without the symbiote so therefore you can just assume that he might not have the eyepatch.
