Regions and countries

  • Atlantis : A small continent with many human settlements. Over 20,000 years ago, an event called the "Great Cataclysm" caused it to be submerged into the sea. [30] The inhabitants of ancient Atlantis built an enormous glass-like dome over the capital city, also known as Atlantis. When barbarians sent by the Deviant Lemuria empire attacked Atlantis, King Kamuu opened the magma-pits which were the city's means of heating. This caused the continent to sink. [31] Kamuu was warned of the Great Cataclysm by the seer, Zhered-Na. When she refused to recant, he had her exiled to the mainland, where she was later stabbed to death by survivors of the submersion. [32] [33]
  • Attilan ( /ˈætɪlɑːn/ ; also known as the Hidden Land): Home of the Inhumans. [34] Originally an island in the North Atlantic Ocean, it has moved several times, including to the Andes, the Himalayas, the Blue Area of the Moon, and the homeworld of the alien Kree, Hala. Attilan is destroyed during the events of Infinity by Black Bolt when he detonates the Terrigen Bomb. The remains of Attilan subsequently reside within New York, in the Hudson estuary. The remains become a sovereign state, New Attilan, ruled by Medusa.
    • Attilan in other media
      • Animation
        • Attilan appears in The New Fantastic Four episode "Medusa and the Inhumans". This city is ruled only by Medusa.
        • Attilan appears in the Fantastic Four (1994), animated series three-part episode "Inhumans Saga". In the episode "The Sentry Sinister", the city is destroyed by Black Bolt, after destroying the barrier while trying to save the Inhumans.
        • Attilan appears in Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. episode "Inhuman Nature." [35] Crystal takes A-Bomb, who falls in love with her. Hulk, Red Hulk, She-Hulk and Skaar track him down and meet the Inhumans upon being captured, but they break free to stop Maximus from using a weapon that he plans to use to destroy humanity. Failing, Attilan is locked in a barrier by Maximus that protects the city from the rest of the world, but is ultimately destroyed by Black Bolt.
        • Attilan appears in Ultimate Spider-Man episode "Inhumanity." [36] The city is controlled by Maximus as king to destroy humanity. Spider-Man and Triton defeat him and with the help of Black Bolt, Attilan falls into the ocean.
        • Attilan appears in the Guardians of the Galaxy episode "Crystal Blue Persuasion," [37] when Ronan the Accuser threatens to destroy the city. In "Inhuman Touch", the Guardians of the Galaxy go to Attilan again to speak with Maximus about the location of the Cosmic Seed, while he plans to escape his cell to control it and destroy a nearby planet. [38]
        • Attilan appears in Avengers Assemble . In the season 3 episode "Inhumans Among Us," [39] the Inhuman Royal Family arrives on Earth; they helps the Avenger stop Alpha Primitives and support a newly emerged inhuman called Inferno. In "The Inhuman Condition", Attilan is taken over by Ultron who uses the Inhumans to create a dangerous weapon on Earth; Terrigen mist spreads on Earth and Attilan lands to search for new Inhumans. In "Civil War, Part 1: The Fall of Attilan", after the Avengers capture Maximus and bring him to Attilan, he causes Inferno to enrage and destroy all of Attilan. Truman Marsh goes ahead with the Inhumans Registration Act where the Inhumans will have inscription discs imposed on them after the destruction of Attilan. At the end of "Civil War, Part 4: Avengers Revolution", Attilan is rebuilt again. In the season 5 episode "Mists of Attilan", Black Panther takes Ms. Marvel on a mission to Attilan.
        • Attilan appears in the second season of Marvel Future Avengers . Following an outbreak of Terrigen Mist, the Inhumans claim custody of the afflicted and take them to Attilan. As a result, the Avengers, Future Avengers and Ms. Marvel attempt to broker peace between Earth and Attilan to reunite those taken with their families on Earth.
      • Live action
        • In Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 2, Gordon, an Inhuman, reveals to the already transformed Raina that there is an island not explored by man where Inhumans live, implying that he refers to Attilan. This is its first reference in Marvel Cinematic Universe and foreshadowing of its appearance in the Inhumans series.
        • In the Marvel Television-produced TV series Inhumans , at some point in history, a civilization of Inhumans decided to leave Earth to colonize the Moon. [40] They built the city of Attilan in a protective dome, protecting it and keeping it hidden from humans and Kree. After Triton's disappearance, Maximus starts a revolution by taking over Attilan. This causes the Inhuman royal family (Black Bolt, Medusa, Gorgon, Karnak, Crystal, and Lockjaw) to escape to Earth, while Maximus sends his allies to pursue them. In the series finale, Attilan's protective dome is compromised by Maximus's plan to retain control and ultimately collapses. The royal family organizes an evacuation to Earth with the help of NASA to save the people of Attilan. The destruction of Attilan seems to send a signal to Hala or possibly another Kree outpost. With the help of humans, Black Bolt and Medusa lead the Inhumans to build a new Attilan on Earth.

The usual means of access to this dimension is through magic.
  • Latveria : A country in Europe ruled by Doctor Doom. [50]
  • Lemuria : A small continent and group of islands in the Pacific Ocean 21,000 years ago, which was ruled by the Deviants. Lemuria became the center of the Deviant Empire, and the only remaining free land was Atlantis, the continent that held its greatest enemy, the Atlantean Empire. When the Deviants attacked Atlantis, the Atlantean King Kamuu opened the magma-pits which were the city's means of heating. This caused a chain reaction which collapsed and sank the continent. At that same time, when the Second Host of the Celestials came to Earth, the Deviants attacked them. In retaliation, the Celestials sank Lemuria in what is now known as the "Great Cataclysm." [51] The Eternal Ikaris guided a ship of humans to safety.

The High Evolutionary artificially creates a Counter-Earth specifically located to hide it from "True Earth"; on his planet he has greatly accelerated evolution and the passage of time. Due to a lack of superheroes, the High Evolutionary enlisted Adam Warlock to keep the peace. On Counter-Earth, the Fantastic Four never existed as its Reed Richards became Brute, its Ben Grimm and Human Torch never mutated, and its Susan Storm was placed in a coma, Bruce Banner never became Hulk and has a son with Betty Ross named Bruce Banner Jr., Peter Parker did not become Spider-Man due to dying from radiation overdose from the spider bite, Stephen Strange operated as Necromancer, Tony Stark did not get the shrapnel near his heart when he was attacked, and Victor von Doom did not hate Reed Richards.

    • "Franklin Richards's Counter-Earth": The third Counter-Earth was created by Franklin Richards in the transition from the Onslaught storyline to the Heroes Reborn event. As Franklin watched the Fantastic Four, Avengers and others sacrifice their lives to defeat Onslaught, he unwittingly tapped into his latent cosmic power to create a pocket universe and divert the heroes there to prevent their deaths. On the Earth of this new dimension, the heroes relived altered versions of their pasts, unaware of their previous lives in the "mainstream" Marvel Universe, where they were presumed dead.
    • "Onslaught Reborn Counter-Earth": The fourth Counter-Earth was also created by Franklin Richards after the events of House of M unexpectedly resurrected Onslaught, who immediately resumed his mission to appropriate the power of Franklin Richards.

Satellites and planetoids

  • Blue Area of the Moon: An artificial, self-sustaining, Earth-like environment on the near side of the Moon, that was created roughly 1 million years ago as part of a competition between two alien races, the Kree and the Cotati. The Skrulls, then a benevolent race, moderated this contest, whose goal was to determine the worthiness of both races by discovering which could achieve more within a set period of time. After being taken to the area of Earth's Moon where the Skrulls had created the artificial atmosphere, the Kree used their strength and rudimentary Skrull technology to create a giant city, while the Cotati were taken to another barren world in a different solar system where they created a long-term sustainable ecosystem. Learning that the Cotati were going to win the contest, the enraged Kree first slaughtered the Cotati and then attacked and killed the Skrull delegation, stole their starship, and initiated the millennia-long conflict now known as the Kree-Skrull War, which would force the Skrulls to become a society of warriors. [101] The Blue Area of the Moon was also the home of Uatu the Watcher and a brief location for Attilan.

Space stations

  • Avalon: One section of the pre-existing station from the future called Graymalkin which belonged to Cable and was destroyed when S.H.I.E.L.D. tried to claim it. Magneto evidently discovered it and using his own ingenuity, as well as Shi’ar technology he had obtained during his time with the X-Men, Magneto rebuilt the station into a fortress in the sky. The station was eventually crippled when Holocaust crossed from his native timeline, the Age of Apocalypse, into the restored main one.
  • Asteroid M : The secret base of Magneto.
  • Starcore: an orbiting laboratory satellite space station, which first appeared in The Incredible Hulk (vol. 2) #148 (February 1972).

Outer space prisons

The following prisons are located in outer space:

  • The Kyln were a series of artificial moons at the edge of known space, which served both as a superhuman prison and a source of nearly unlimited power. Operations at the Kyln were overseen by the Nova Corps. All life on the Kyln moons was extinguished in Annihilation Prologue #1.
  • Negative Zone Prison Alpha was Introduced in Civil War: Frontline #5, it is a prison originally constructed to house super-villains but which acted as a holding facility for unregistered heroes during the civil war. The portal to the prison is operated by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents. The prison itself is an automated facility. Designed by Reed Richards and built by Stark Enterprises and Fantastic Four Inc., it is located in the Negative Zone. The inmates call the facility "Fantasy Island" and "Wonderland", probably because prisoners who are unable to manipulate technology to their own ends are connected to virtual reality systems. It is also referred to as "File 42" due to it being the 42nd item on a list written by Tony Stark, Reed Richards and Hank Pym of ways to make a world with super-powered beings safer. The prison is an extremely secure, clean facility with cells custom-designed for each inhabitant. Notable inmates during the war include Iron Fist (Daredevil stand-in), Robbie Baldwin and Cloak and Dagger. After the war, it is now used for super-villains, and was known to house at the very least Taskmaster and Lady Deathstrike until Taskmaster made a deal with Camp Hammond to become an instructor and Lady Deathstrike somehow escaped as she appeared in X-Men: Messiah Complex. However, the prison was later overrun by Negative Zone ruler Blastaar.
  • The Stockade is a 31st-century prison planet in the Guardians of the Galaxy universe, shown in Guardians of the Galaxy #21 and #51–53. Known inmates of Stockade have included Charlie-27, Tork and Teju.
