ever since Avengers end game was released comic fans have been hungry
over the suggestion that our favorite superhero cinematic universes might have
reached the point in time where others from their heavily detailed multiverses
might be explored big sentence big concepts this extends past the Marvel
Universe to having the concept of a multiverse introduced in one of the
biggest an successful franchise films is an honor that is theirs but it also
opened up mainstream audiences to becoming familiarized with the concept
of multiverses in general meaning it wouldn't be surprising if comic
adaptations of the future took more liberties and were set in alternate
universes so today we have drafted up our wish list of alternate universes
we'd love to see adapt it up on the big screen with our list of the top 10 ultra
universes that needs to be movies be sure to stick around to the end of the
video to let us know if you groove our picks and tell us what other universes
you think should have made the list now let's get to it
at number 10 the Marvel Zombies universe earth to 149 a good old zombie killin
flick featuring our favorite Marvel heroes and villains where morality is
thrown out the window and is literally a bloody struggle for survival yeah sign
me up Marvel Zombies takes the basic premise
of most zombie films and adapts it into a universe populated by super-powered
individuals characters are infected then they go around trying to eat one another
infecting others til the earth has turned into complete chaos although it
does have a pretty bleak ending with a handful of heroes most member leave the
Hulk eating Galactus and thus having enough power to completely devour the
entire universe much to their dismay when food starts to run out it's still
like a really fun read it's also worth noting that this universe at one point
did crossover with the 6-1-6 universe but we'd fear that incorporating that
into a movie might get messy and we'd probably lose a few characters that we'd
like to keep kicking around the MCU and at night the larval universe earth eight
three one one earth eight three one one is known as the larval universe get it
cause it rhymes marvel marvel and while it's often seen as a parody universe of
sorts its characters do have a lot of merits like the spectacular spider ham
alongside other animalized versions of our favorite characters including the
van plastic fur iron mouse and many more it
is a really fun and kid-friendly superhero bash that would surely
entertain in cinemas not only would it make for a great family-friendly PG film
but if done correctly in an animation style like into the spider verse we
could really have an awesome hit on her hands and hey we could all do with a
little bit more good wholesome fun am i right in at number eight Superman
metropolis this one is probably you film buffs out there super mad metropolis the
first part of a trilogy that came out in 1999 is part of a trilogy that is based
on German expressionist cinema specifically three stories that are
patterned after three classic films metropolis Nosferatu and the Blue Angel
each one starring one of DC's Trinity Superman Batman and Wonder Woman taking
plot points and stylistic cues from these films each parts continues a story
that loosely adapts them and makes for some stark and memorable imagery
throughout also Batman Nosferatu like combined until one character is scary as
how and so interesting and at number seven and Gotham by Gaslight if German
Expressionism is a little bit too heavy for you then Gotham by Gaslight might be
the answer to your period piece comic book cravings one of DC's most iconic
alternate-universe stories con by Gaslight is a one-shot comic that takes
place during the 19th century with Bruce Wayne making his debut as Batman at the
same time that serial killer Jack the Ripper arrives and got them considered
to be DC's first Elseworlds story it has Bruce rubbing shoulders with historical
figures the likes of Sigmund Freud and even comes across the 1889 version of
the Joker Emanuel and his wife tried to commit suicide but was left with a
permanent grin thanks to said poison the majority of
the story though follows Bruce trying to solve the Jack the Ripper murders and it
ends with some shocking revelations and at number six the 1602 Universe r31 one
from one period piece to another let's take a look at one of Marvel's universes
up pop comic book characters into another era we're talking the 1602
universe which takes place in the year 1602 and largely in Europe with our
heroes filling in for some major historical roles at the discovery of the
new world North America in case you've missed that day in history class 1602
was created by Neil Gaiman and Andy Kubert and explores a simple concept
what if the Age of Heroes began in the Age of Exploration now there's a whole
plot line that actually ties earth 3/11 to earth-616 thanks to Captain America
we think the cinematic adaptation of this story could just skip over that and
merely established itself as a different earth in the multiverse don't complicate
something that's already good on its own and number 5 the Dark Knight Returns
Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns exist on the alternate earth of Earth 31
if we are going by pre flashpoint standards here people but for the sake
of this hypothetical that is neither here nor there the Dark Knight Returns
is one of the most iconic Batman stories that DC has ever produced and one that
explores the age psyche of Bruce Wayne in a way that has been replicated time
and time again in other DC works it is a storyline that was partially borrowed
for Zack Snyder's Batman vs Superman although was watered down heavily Bruce
wasn't old which was kind of a big theme attic thing throughout and also it just
wasn't good thanks to the inclusion of a billion other adapted storylines and
really part Direction choices sorry it's not a good film controversial opinion
come at me in the comments I apologize it's just true anywho opinions aside if
the Dark Knight Returns is properly adapted it could make for one of the
most grim and fascinating cinematic takes on Batman yes I don't know about
you guys but I would love to see an aged Bruce Wayne running around with Cary
Kelly's Robin in a futuristic but familiar dystopian Gotham could be dope
if done right that is in at number four Kingdom Come
speaking of iconic DC alternate universes the 1996 Kingdom Come
miniseries is one Elseworlds imprint that we would love to see come to life
created by Alex Ross and Mark Waid it tells a deconstructionist tale set in
the future where traditional superheroes are now considered ahead of touch while
new vigilantes grow increasingly immoral and irresponsible as you can imagine
these two factions have a whole lot of conflict brewing between them and who of
course is in the middle of all this none other than Batman who has assembled a
team to try to de-escalate this conflict and prevent a world ending super human
war it's considered Ross's grand opus and it's even been compared to Alan
Moore's Watchmen at times plus the artwork is brilliant and it'd be really
cool to see a talented director take that as inspiration use something really
fascinating stylistically with the story and at number three Age of Apocalypse
earth to time five while we may have adaptations kicking around and include
parts of Marvel's earth to 95 Age of Apocalypse timeline looking at you
Legion we've yet to have a fully comprehensive adaptation of Age of
Apocalypse because arguably one of the publishing giants most intriguing
alternate realities to date long story short lead
who is Charles Xavier son goes back in time to try to kill magneto but instead
accidentally kills his own father then when apocalypse shows up in that
newly divergent timeline everything goes to thanks to Xavier not being around to
rally the troops magneto does step up but it's almost too late the world is in
shambles and apocalypse manages to conquer large portions of it timeline
follows the resistance against apocalypse and features a slew of brand
new characters along with reinvented versions of ones that we already know
and love beast becomes dark beast and evil alternate who is sadistic AF
Wolverine and Jean Grey are a couple and rogue gets hitched to magneto and has a
family the original story has quite the explosive ending - pun entirely intended
there that would make for one hell the poaching conclusion - a feature film and
at number two the ultimate universe earth 16:10 the Ultimate Universe is a
beloved one of Marvel's it essentially took all of Marvel's characters and the
universe itself and rebooted it reimagining it and modernizing it many
characters were given brand new origin stories to look for example Hank Pym and
Janet Van Dyne have an incredibly toxic and destructive relationship Janet can
also transform into a humanoid wasp and Hank at one time tries to murder her
with bug spray yeah there's some dark stuff that happens in this one guys the
Hulk is a complete monster pretty much doing whatever the hell he wants and
Miles Morales takes up the helm of spider-man it was arguably one of the
most noble and likeable characters in that entire universe in addition to this
the ultimatum storyline that occurred in it many credit to destroying this
universe and it left a lot of characters dead maimed or graphically defeated
shocking readers worldwide Doctor Strange got strangled by his own cape
and his head popped it was gross don't even get me started on what Hank Pym
does the blob ah and finally at number one Superman red Sun Superman red Sun
has a simple premise but dire and complicated consequences what if some
rent ship landed in the Soviet Union rather than the USA Superman red Sun has
a simple premise but it comes with dire and complicated consequences so what is
it what if Superman's ship landed in the
Soviet Union rather than in the USA now thanks to a slight shift in the Earth's
orbit kal-el lands on the other side of the earth and is raised by Soviets
becoming a weapon and a symbol used by their government that inevitably has the
rest of the world frantic and falling to their knees this Superman ideologies are
twisted and Lex Luthor who becomes the president of the United States takes on
the role of a hero trying to work to save the planet in a
brand-new context that is utterly terrifying Batman of course falls into
the role of rebellion leader has with most evil Superman narratives all in all
it's an evil Superman story that still resonates today and makes for one hell
of a scary hypothetical scenario as in the film that could come out of that or
this series oh all right there we have it friends what other alternate Earth's
