History: (Marvel Adventures Fantastic Four#47) - Sorcerer Supreme Norrin Radd received a request for help from Susan Storm, the brain of the Terrific Trio. She had discovered a background signal out of sync with the universe and constructed a television-like string harmonizer to view it, but the signal was too weak. Arriving at the Baxter Building, Norrin was happy to help and used his mystical powers to boost the signal, which displayed a warning from Fantastic Four of Earth-20051 about their reality being rewritten.

(Marvel Adventures Fantastic Four#47 - BTS) - Following the instructions from the alternate Reed Richards, the Terrific Trio traced the source of the anomaly and were able to restore the reality to normal, diverging the altered reality from Earth-20051.
