Could be a hero, concept, series, team, etc. any company. I really like the h dial from dc and wish it was used more.

A dimension where everything takes places inside of a biological meat and bone and blood universe spanning monster. I think it’s come up a couple times in different media, the bloom in torment: tides of numenera is kinda like this. The worms living in Fry’s colon in Futurama touches on similar ideas. In comics I think the bleed in multiversity might be a little like that?
I always enjoy that, rick and morry have anatomy park
I really liked Fear Itself from Marvel. Odin having a lost, secret, evil brother who creates magical hammers to distribute to his “Worthy” (different villains and heroes who get transformed into demigods once they touch their respective hammer) to cause as much chaos as possible for him to feed on, Iron Man making weapons for the “Mighty” to fight back, and all those heroes get awesome power ups and cool temporary costumes. It’s also where Red She-Hulk gets her sword from. It’s just a big action-y event that was really fun for me to read when I was in middle and high school. Imo I think it would be an awesome event to see in live-action, possibly in the MCU.
On the opposite side, I read DC One Million a couple months ago and that one was fun. It’s kinda like a DC “What If…” where if DC were to keep publishing comics in sequence nonstop, we’d literally be in the 853rd century by the time they got to one million issues published. So in this story, the JLA of 1998 get visited by the Justice Legion Alpha of the 853rd century, where each hero basically protects an entire planet in the solar system after having them terra formed for inhabitants to live on. Future tech is crazy, so the planets are all veritable wildlife sanctuaries, while all the cities are located within tesseracts/pocket dimensions so they can expand forever. Solaris is first introduced in this story, and is one of the main antagonists, along with Vandal Savage. It kinda jumps around from character to character, and throws in some other issues of other characters to more flesh out the world they live in, like Resurrection Man and Supergirl 853, or Superboy One-Million-And-Counting (in this future, there are multiple Con-El clones, each mixed with a different hero such as OMAC or Lagoon Boy). Batman One Million is the warden of the prison planet of Pluto, where all super-criminals are sent. It’s just a really fun story.
Fear itself sounds really fun to read, hopping on that, still new to comics (got back into them, read them as a kid but only really remembered bones) so I never heard of that
Dark Reign from Marvel.
I absolutely ADORED that arc after Civil War. Hell I liked it MORE than Civil War. All the Dark teams, Thunderbolts really came into it’s own, and Osborn running the whole show as Iron Patriot was great. Dark Avengers, Dark X-Men…it was just brilliant. It also really turned Sentry into one of those “oh shit” characters.
I just remember buying every book that had Dark Reign on the title. read every single issue across various comics released for that arc, I loved it.
I really enjoyed The Witching Hour by Loeb and Bachalo. I guess it’s been 20 years or so now. I’ll have to go dig up my copy as it’s due for a reread.
Dial H was a neat idea…
I also always liked the motorcycle cowboy version of Vigilante:
I couldve sworn they were sstting up some sort of heroforce but I cant find any info online, need to reread (like speed,strength, etc. but they pulled the heroes powers)
