This is the Marvel Comics 2 Universe. This particular reality has been designated Earth-982. First appearance: What If..!? vol. 2 #105. Most of the writing comes from Tom Defalco.

The Marvel Comics 2 Universe is set in the present day, but suggests that the main Marvel Universe was set around fifteen years ago, One example of this being Captain America being on the verge of retirement as he is so weakened. Although many characters are in this universe exactly as they are on Earth 616, due to the time difference some characters are of a different age, and some younger characters have come through as main characters.
