* Although ''[[Countdown to Final Crisis]]'' is largely [[Canon
* Hal Jordan as Parallax was responsible for this in ''Zero Hour: Crisis In Time'' when he erased all of existence save for a few individuals that he spared just so he could remake the universe as he wanted it.
* In ''[[The Metabarons]]'', at some point in its storyline our universe gets invaded from a parallel universe. A member of the eponymous noble family saves our universe by destroying the other universe {{spoiler|with his [[Psychic Powers]]}}.
Line 155:
* The [[wikipedia:Simulation hypothesis|Simulation Hypothesis]] puts forward the possibility that reality as we know it is no more than a simulation. If its creators or some other outside force were to turn it off...
** If they're running more than one simulation, this would be X-5.
** [[Digimon Adventure|Wait, you mean to tell me that we're in one giant computer game]] [[Star Ocean: Till the End of Time|and none of this is actually real?]]
* It all depends on what the true nature of dark energy is. One hypothesis is the Big Crunch, stating that the universe will slow down in its' expansion and eventually go into a sort of reverse Big Bang, collapsing back into a singularity. The more optimistic Big Bounce idea is that the Big Crunch happens, but the revertion of the universe into a singularity again will trigger another Big Bang. The universe thus remakes itself with a bang and a crunch through cycles of rebirth, maybe for all eternity.
** Contrariwise, another hypothesis suggests that Dark Energy will eventually accelerate the Universe so fast that it will even overpower the energy bonds that hold matter together, so that even subatomic particles will be ripped apart. Strangely, this acceleration would still continue until it reaches the speed witnessed during the inflationary period of the Big Bang, allowing the creation of new particle-antiparticle pairs from the vacuum energy, just as it did originally. In this scenario, again, the destruction of our Universe potentially brings about the birth of a new much larger and potentially much richer Universe.
