The Dark Forbush Man of Earth-666666666 from the main comics Earth's perspective, Earth-199999 from the MCU's perspective. Earth-Minus 616 from Earth-Ecch's perspective, and Earth-Four (emphasizing the th and the F) from the Electric Company's perspective has captured at least 3616 characters from across the Megaverse and placed them in an unknown number of locations, possibly nine. You can fire up to 40 shots per day to rescue them. Bonus shots hidden throughout the board. 20 questions per day, and bonus shots can be used to boost either guesses or questions to double. At least at first one guess per post to allow others to chime in, but if no one else seems to be playimng, feel free to group guesses.
Rules I'm playing by this round:
1. If a particular version of a character was played by multiple actors, only one actor is used, not always my own favourite.
2. Conversely the same actor can appear in multiple roles, even in the same continuity.
3. No characters from previous rounds, though counterparts possible (more on this below)
4. Characters originating in the show or movie are okay.
5. Invevitably some great characters are going to be missed for one reason or another.
6. As before some characters are other Earth counterparts are possible, from other characters in this collage and also from earlier collages (still more on the below).
7. Streaming service characters are okay.
8. Some characters are from commercials. Since commercials are often done in ways that if you squint you could place them in an existing continuity, I'm trying to leave out versions of characters played by TV/movie actors playing the same character.
9. Some cosplay is okay as long is it's full costume and not just a t-shirt (for commercials I'll allow the likes of people pretneding to be a character).
10. Some characters are thus from documentaries.
11. Some characters are from unauthorized movies. I've tried to avoid anything too pornographic. When in doubt I leave them out.
12. Characters from skits okay. If a show has multiple skits, mention the specific skit unless the show always has the same skit or there's been only one skit. Due to the exaggerated nature of skits, I do treat skits involving TV movie actors as separate continuities from the other shows/movies
13. Some name variations okay, on a case by case basis (e.g. if a skit has a gender swapped version of a character).
14. No one is directly from a live show, but characters in commercials for live shows are possible.
15. I usually avoid characters with no revealed names, but I've made exceptions if such a character is particularly notable.
16. To avoid the collage being diluted by too many fan film characters, no YouTube originals and the like. Everyone here reaches a minimum level of professionalism.
17. Counterparts from artificial realities are okay, so long as it's not an existing character's consciousness in the body. It's pretty common for one character to be from the "real" world but interacting with an artificial version of someone they know.
18. Unlike with DC, trips to the past or future in the Marvel Multiverse if not Megaverse tends to involve divergent timelines.
19. While most characters were not in the 2020 collages, there's one exception: The Frost Sisters from The Gifted, previously grouped together, are now separated into individuals.
20. For possessed characters (usually from Helstrom), if the image shows them possessed, name the possessor, but name the person possessed if the image shows them in a not possessed state.
21. As always the default is the Earth the main character(s) is/are from. You may use official or unofficial reality numbers for non-default versions of characters, but descriptors are encouraged.
22. Because over half the characters in this series are MCU, don't simply put MCU as where they're from, though it doesn't have to be their first appearance as long as they were in it.
23. For groupings of characters where they are named but it's not clarified who is who, assume they are named in order of left to right,
24. Characters from deleted scenes are fine.
Making sense of Marvel Mutant movie continuity (some shows discussed seperately below):
Original continuity: X-Men, X2: X-Men United, X-Men: The Last Stand, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, The Wolverine, X-Men: First Class, parts of X-Men: Days of Future Past
Second continuity: Most of X-Men: Days of Future Past, Deadpool, X-Men: Apocalypse, X-Men: Dark Phoenix, parts of Deadpool 2
Most of Deadpool is in a continuity that diverges from the second continuity. Other continuities also seen.
Logan and New Mutants are self-contained.
Alternate and artificial realities (I'll include spoiler space for each in case someone hasn't seen a movie or all seasons of a show but intends to):
Agents of SHIELD:
Legion:The Framework (excludes characters with the consciousness of the original versions), a future reality seen in season 5 (one character diverges further), the divergent past seen in season 7.
Cloak & Dagger:Alternate realities seen in season 2 episode 6. Another divergence occurs near the end of the series.
Runaways:D'Spayre's false realities have courterparts (though Tanya is the original in all of them); different D'Spayre realities can have counterparts of the same character so be specific. Also Dark Dimension counterparts.
Avengers: Endgame:Dark Dimension counterparts, plus another artificial reality (the Healing Algorithm). A couple divergent realities seen towards the end of the series, but for some reason one visit to the past doesn't seen to cause a divergence.
Loki:The various past realities are divergent
Spider-Man: No Way Home:Multiple counterparts seen, particularly of Loki himself.
Moon Knight:Villains from previous movies diverge from their original history but two other overworldly characters from previous movies are considered the originals.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness:The afterlife realm counts if the character doesn't seen to have the original's consciousness or a fragment thereof.
During the clue round, one of the clues will be whether non-commercial characters are part of the MCU (Yes, No, Partial). For purposes of this collage series (not just this round), a character is Partial if they're from an alternate universe from the MCU perspective (Spider-Man 2002 or Amazing Spider-Man 2012 universes weren't originally quasi-MCU so they're treated as No, but variants from Spider-Man: No Way Home are Partial); or they're from the Framwork, the Dark Dimension, a D'Spayre vision, the Healing Algorithm, Duat, or pretty much any reality seen in Loki. Since the Chronicoms originated in the main MCU reality, they're listed as Yes even if only seen in the alternate reality. Bonus shorts in MCU DVDs/Blu-rays not in the MCU proper but featuring MCU actors playing counterparts of their usual characters are also considered Partial.A few additional realities seen, one in particular having a lot of screen time. Okay to use reality numbers given in the movie itself for non-MCU proper characters.
