History PlayingWith / UltimateUniverse

* '''Exploited''': The last saga of Captain Rectitude was not meant to be set in an Ultimate Universe, but fans received it as a DorkAge. So, it is RetGone by saying that NeverWasThisUniverse.

** The sales of the Captain Rectitude are decreasing, and the network attempts this to say "WereStillRelevantDammit".

* '''Double Subverted''': The new DarkerAndEdgier comic is [[EarthAllAlong the original universe all along]]... [[TheEndOrIsIt or is it?]] The author left things vague, and the fandom is forced into WildMassGuessing.

Back to UltimateUniverse

'''Basic Trope''': An adaptation in the same medium as the original, [[AlternateContinuity but within its own universe]].

'''Basic Trope''': The original universe is reimagined as a new one, with a more modern approach.
* '''Straight''': The adventures of Captain Rectitude are relaunched again, as if it was a new character. Most things are changed, [[FairForItsDay to fit with modern standards]].
* '''Exaggerated''': Captain Rectitude has been modified so much, that now it's Captain Rectitude InNameOnly.
* '''Downplayed''': It's an ultimate universe only in paper. Everything about Captain Rectitude is still the same as in the original universe.

** RevisitingTheRoots
** The Ultimate Captain Rectitude line is finally closed... but Ultimate Responsibility Kid and Ultimate Loyalty Dog are so darn cool, that they move to the original universe as {{Canon Immigrant}}s.
* '''Subverted''': A new comic featuring Captain Rectitude is DarkerAndEdgier, with very heavy stuff going on, and the secondary characters are so different... but, after some introduction, we are told that it was [[EarthAllAlong the original universe all along]].

* '''Zig Zagged''': After some years of paralel continuity, writers began to lost track of which things belong with the original Captain Rectitude and which things with Ultimate Captain Rectitude. They begin to mistake the characters, motivations and past events, provide explanations for the {{Continuity Snarl}}s generated, those explanations cause even greater problems... and, finally, [[ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths the Anti-Monitor comes to put them out of their misery]].
* '''Averted''': The Captain Rectitude universe is never reimagined.

** Ultimate Captain Rectitude was designed specifically for people wanting to get into the original comics, but are too scared due to [[ContinuityLockout the excess continuity]].

** Ultimate Captain Rectitude makes a MythologyGag to the original universe.
** Ultimate Captain Rectitude suddenly recovers the memory of the "original" universe, and notices that, somehow, the whole universe has changed.
