"Wow, that is weird. I mean, even for worlds like ours." He paused to think about it. "Although, not the weirdest parallel universe stuff I've seen."
He'd had to bury an alternate version of his brother on the moon, after all. And had pretty much died in a Lovecraftian nightmare version of his own universe before somehow getting pulled into this one.
"I wonder if you're from the same world as me or not. You could be from a close alternate - I've seen it before and I've never heard of the Ultimates, although we do have the Fantastic Four and the X-Men. I'm pretty close with the Fantastic Four, actually." A pause. "Or at least I was until recently. Although my beef's more with Dr. Richards than Mrs. Richards, the Hothead, or the Thing."
They'd always been good to him, the Fantastic Four. Quite a few times that he'd been trouble or needed help with his powers.
At least, until Reed freakin' Richards ignored his summons to get all the heroes into space to stop the Annihilation Wave and chalked it up to a Kree-Skrull border skirmish. For that? He was dead to him.
"What year is it there? Did you have the incident at Stamford? The Superhero Registration Act?"

He wanted to narrow this thing down.
