Sometimes a writer creates a universe almost exactly the same as ours, but with slight differences. Some settings refer to not just [[Another Dimension|one other dimension]], but to a whole ''set'' of other dimensions and universes. A system of distinct worlds exists, often interconnected in a way that allows characters to travel to and from them. It might be as a tourist who just goes to look and tries not to change anything, or as a participant who goes in and interacts with the people in the other universe.

* The Multiverse plays an important part in [http://alaxr274.deviantart.com/gallery/33810717 Super Milestone Wars] and it's sequel.
Line 61 ⟶ 59:
* ''[[Stars Above]]'' uses this concept.
* ''[[Drunkard's Walk]]'' is a [[Mega Crossover]] that is set on [[Intercontinuity Crossover|more than a dozen different Earths]], one at a time.
* ''[[A Brane of Extraordinary Women]]'' documents events occurring in several universes within a Multiverse, one of which is [[The Teraverse]].
== Film ==
* The basic premise of ''[[The One]]'' is that Gabriel [[Yu Law]] defected from a group known as the Multiverse Authority after killing one of his counterparts. By killing his counterparts he is able to absorb their power and become more powerful. His new goal in life to destroy every single one of his counterparts and become a God, not knowing that his last counterpart is equally as powerful.
* The [[Big Bad]] in the movie ''[[Last Action Hero]]'' discovers since he can cross over to other movies and other worlds, he can bring back the worst of the worst villains. They'll have a formal party: [[A Nightmare on Elm Street|Freddy Krueger]], and [[Friday the 13th (film)|Jason]] can supply the meat, Hannibal Lecter can do the catering, etc. And it will all take place in what is apparently the "Real World", because here ''[[Crapsack World|the bad guys can win!]]''.
