1	* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Aside from ''Spider-Man 2099'' (the most popular series), ''X-Men 2099'' (which along with ''Spider-Man 2099'' was reprinted in trade paperbacks), and Creator/WarrenEllis's ''Doom 2099'' run, the 2099 books have never been reprinted. The exceptions are issue #15 of ''Ravage 2099'' and issue #13 of ''Punisher 2099'', which have been released as digital issues, apparently because they were part of the "Fall of the Hammer" crossover.
2	* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
3	** In the original draft of ''Ravage 2099''’s final issue, [[spoiler:Doom would have sent Ravage and the Hellrock denizens into another dimension, while he destroyed the island]]. Doom even briefly alludes to this.
4	** ''Fantastic Four 2099'' didn't even last 10 issues, and it only had 5 before the entire 2099 staff quit. What makes this far worse is that it was shaping up to be the range's best title since'' Spider-Man 2099''.
5	** Evidence shows that Goblin 2099 was not originally intended to be Gabriel O'Hara but instead [[spoiler:Father Jennifer, Dana's sister]]. Peter David made sure to restore this when he returned to ''Spider-Man 2099'' in the mid-[=2010s=].
6	** Creator/MarkWaid had written a proposition for a ''Daredevil 2099'' ongoing series, which was never picked up. This presented a completely different character than the Daredevil who was later introduced to the setting. Rather than the descendant of Kingpin, Waid's version would have been the descendant of Foggy Nelson. At the start of the series he is content to remain in his cushy boring job as a corporate lawyer when he is thrust into the role of a new superhero.
7	** [[http://www.unseen64.net/2009/12/14/marvel-2099-psx-cancelled/ There was going to be a video game based on the 2099 comics that was meant to released on the original PlayStation in 1996/1997 called Marvel 2099: One Nation Under Doom.]] There where screen shots and playable demos of the game in its run up but it was canceled at the last minute.
8	** After the end of ''Spider-Man 2099'' vol.3, there were plans to start a new series named ''Defenders 2100'', with strong implications that Miguel was going to try reunite with his family. Those plans were discarded as the original ''2099'' run was RetGone in 2019 due to InUniverse events and then rebooted.
9	* WriterRevolt: When Marvel fired Joey Cavalieri as a cost-cutting exercise, most of the writers quit in protest. The line limped on for a while before collapsing, and Marvel wrapped things up by getting Len Kaminski to write a one-shot, ''2099: Manifest Destiny''. Kaminski was the writer of ''Ghost Rider 2099'', and the opening narration makes it quite clear whose side he's on:
10	-->This world had itself a god once. Not a perfect one, there's not a one of 'em are, but this 'un was kind and honest, and knew more'n most about creatin'.
