History
Limbo is the name for two separate dimensions in the Marvel Universe. Each Limbo shares some characteristics though neither are explicitly intended to be the Catholic Limbo. Each is a sort of "pocket universe", whose physical and temporal scope are extremely limited compared to the universe that ordinary human beings inhabit. To those within each, it appears roughly analogous to a planet, with a solid surface at one earth gravity and a sky devoid of stars. The first Limbo, also known as "Otherplace" is a magical dimension of demons which were historically ruled by Belasco and was primarily featured in X-Men comics. The second Limbo, also known as "True Limbo" is a place outside of time historically ruled by Immortus and the location to which Rom the Spaceknight banished the Dire Wraiths.
