HistoryEdit
During the reign of King Arthur, the villain Chthon used the Darkhold to unleash a zombie virus on the populace of England. It was stopped by a group of inter-dimensional heroes: Howard the Duck, Jackie Kane, and Machine Man.
Within modern times, United States has become something of an isolationist nation. The Soviet Union has survived into the twenty-first century, and is beginning its sixteenth five-year-plan under Premiere Yuri Mikhailovich Luzhkov. China dominates spacial colonization, having established several space stations (such as Harmony), moon bases, and spaceplanes (such as the Great Enterprise).
While the existence of super-humans was not unheard of, it was also not publicly known. In the United States, superhumans are monitored by "troubleshooters", and intelligence on their activities are collected in "black files".
The White Event was a paradigm shift that acted as a cosmic trigger and happened at 06.48 UTC on March 2 2006. The previous minute the Chinese, Russian & USA's early warning systems went offline. The event, in which "Everything went White", could be seen from everywhere in the world (including New York, Optima Down, San Francisco, Latvia & Fort Meade).

- The Beatles' John Lennon survives on Earth-555, and was born on either March 1 or 2, 1940 (and not October 9, 1940 as in real life). Paul McCartney, on the other hand, was shot to death in Liverpool on that same day in 1987.
- On Earth-555, Oklahoma is apparently adjacent to a large body of water.
