@rakaithwei The cyclops and Wolverine trophies were nothing more than sly nods in AVP: Deadliest of the Species because Chris Claremont was writing both series around that time.
Yes, yes, yes... I know, everyone knows. Back then it was a neat nod and Easter Egg, but then this happened and I had happened to come across that the universe which Deadliest of the Species was set was listed as an official Marvel universe within the Marvel multiverse just seemed interesting.
I also got some answers from the folks over at the Marvel Database Wiki who answered my question. The universe listing of Earth-91445 which could be the AVP Universe, came from the Marvel Appendix website. According to the folks at the Marvel Database website, the Marvel Appendix website IS mantained by writers and information gatherers who have worked on the official Marvel handbook guides and is even reputed as being a reputable site by the handbook guides and Marvel themselves... While interesting, this... doesn't really answer whether or not the universe designation for the AVP Universe, Earth-94415 is Marvel's official designation for the AVP Universe. This isn't the first time where Marvel has given numerical designations to outside company properties... as they've listed universes where DC and Marvel co-exist, as well as Capcom and Marvel.
So if Marvel designated the AVP universe, prior to the Disney purchase or sometime after, is something interesting to think about.
I've still yet to get an answer from the folks at the Marvel Appendix website.
