    I think that in a full-on multiverse where absolutely anything is possible, you’d have to expect some of both now and then.

    Perhaps another way to look at it is, what are the chances that you’re going to encounter a more similar universe, vs a less similar universe? As far as I’m aware, none of the MCU multiverse stories have necessarily attempted to answer that question, as yet… but if I were to take a crack at it:

    I’d say that it largely depends upon the method used to traverse universes. If your method is intelligently directed, you could assume that encountered universes are more likely to be similar to your own universe. If on the other hand, your method is more random and chaotic, you’re more likely to end up someplace completely unfamiliar.

    But then again, with characters like America Chavez – who directs her travel with her own mind, and still has greatly limited control over where she ends up – the entire notion of what constitutes “intelligent direction” kind of comes into question… so it’s all rather too complex to analyze effectively, isn’t it?
