History ComicBook / Marvel2099

* CocaPepsiInk: The Stark-Fujiwara company, based in Japan, was created after the end of the era of heroes, when the Fujiwara company bought Stark Industries. By the time we see it in the comic, they are entirely Japanese in terms of leadership and aesthetic, but specialize in {{Powered Armor}}s just like Tony Stark did.

* KillEmAll: [[spoiler:The final issue of ''Ravage 2099'' is one of the most thorough deck-clearing exercises in comic book history. Doom shows up, douses the entire island in liquid Adamantium with Ravage and his entire supporting cast on it, then fires the lot directly into space. The end. Even the ''letter column'' is pretty matter-of-fact about this.]]

In the year 2099, however, four individuals suddenly get pulled into superheroism. Miguel O'Hara, a geneticist working for Alchemax, [[ComicBook/SpiderMan2099 accidentally splices Spider DNA with his own]]. Paul Philip Ravage, executive for an environmentalist Alchemax subdivision, discovers corruption in his employer and goes on the lam to fight it. In distant Latveria, [[ComicBook/DoctorDoom a long-lost dictator suddenly returns, and prepares to retake his homeland]]. Jake Gallows, a member of the private police force, [[ComicBook/ThePunisher2099 becomes a violent vigilante when the law fails to condemn his family’s killer.]] Later, a [[ComicBook/XMen small group of mutants]] gather in the Nevada desert. An amoral Hollywood producer turns on the Knights of Banner and is [[ComicBook/IncredibleHulk pelted with Gamma Rays.]] A hacker finds his personality trapped on the net, [[ComicBook/GhostRider2099 and is transported into a robot body to avenge his own death.]] Not to mention the many, many other heroes that began to crawl out of the woodwork...

* SuperpoweredEvilSide: Averted. You'd expect for Hulk 2099 to be even worse than [[ComicBook/IncredibleHulk the original]], but not only was John Eisenhart a CorruptCorporateExecutive and borderline sociopath ''prior'' to obtaining his powers, but after the event he undergoes a complete personality change and pulls an epic HeelFaceTurn. At worst he's GoodIsNotNice. No split personalities here.

** Daredevil 2099 was established to be Samuel Fisk, ComicBook/TheKingpin's grandson (originally in 2004's ''Marvel Knights 2099'', and later in the alternate timelines of the 2016 ''Spider-Man 2099'' series) but Fisk's only known descendant (his son Richard) was murdered in ''ComicBook/{{Daredevil}}'' in 2002.

Aside from some brief revisits, the entire 2099 franchise has largely become another part of geek trivia. Spider-Man 2099 has received some new attention from being featured in 21st-century ''Franchise/SpiderMan'' video games, most notably ''VideoGame/SpiderManShatteredDimensions'' and ''VideoGame/SpiderManEdgeOfTime''. Oh, and he was also part of the Comicbook/{{Exiles}} for a while, and in the months just prior to Comicbook/MarvelNOW, writers tease the fans the Peter Parker's replacement in ''The Comicbook/SuperiorSpiderMan'' would be his 2099 counterpart, [[TrollingCreator though this would eventually be proven false.]] However, he ''was'' a major player in some arcs, which led to Alchemax being created in Earth-616. Miguel starred in a new ongoing series, and took part in the ''ComicBook/SpiderVerse'' BatFamilyCrossover. In 2015, the 2099 timeline was one of the alternate universes featured in the third season of ''WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderMan'', with Miguel appearing as one of the major characters. One of the mini-series featured in ''Comicbook/SecretWars2015'' was ''Secret Wars 2099'', a title focusing on the 2099 version of Comicbook/TheAvengers (featuring analogues of ComicBook/CaptainAmerica, Comicbook/IronMan, Comicbook/BlackWidow, and ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}}).

In 2019, in celebration of Marvel's 80th anniversary, a storyline running through ''ComicBook/NickSpencersSpiderMan'' sees the 2099 universe rebooted as Peter and Miguel team up to save the future as well as a series of one-shots looking into 2099 versions of various characters, even Franchise/ConanTheBarbarian!

* CosmicRetcon: In the 2019 series, branching off ''ComicBook/NickSpencersSpiderMan'', the Marvel 2099 universe is rebooted due to too many changes occurring in Earth-616 to sustain its original form.

* TimeyWimeyBall: Whatever the hell happened between ''ComicBook/NickSpencersSpiderMan'' and this resulted in the universe crashing. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Miguel and Peter when the latter sees the former in the modern era.

** ''Manifest Destiny'' also explained that the Solar System was enveloped in a bubble of cosmic energy which formed a nigh indestructible barrier put there by aliens to isolate Earth from the rest of the galaxy. Conflicting with this is that several different alien species had previously shown up in various 2099 titles.
*** Creator/PeterDavid retconned all the above after he returned to the series in 2014.

''Marvel 2099'' was very much a product of UsefulNotes/TheDarkAgeOfComicBooks, with Liefeldian physiques and ridiculous future slang. Nonetheless, the first four series (''ComicBook/SpiderMan2099'', ''Ravage 2099'', ''Doom 2099'', and ''ComicBook/ThePunisher2099'') sold extremely well. ''Spider-Man 2099'' would become the most well-known series, and came to directly interact with [[Franchise/SpiderMan the mainstream series.]] ''Doom 2099'' featured exceptional writing, turning Doctor Doom into an AntiHero while still keeping him a MagnificentBastard. Ravage was the only fully original character, and was written by Creator/StanLee for the first eight issues. ''Punisher 2099'' was... well, a Dark Age comic.
