KINGDOM OF COMA

Type: Astral dimension

Environment: Earth-like (as far as we know; we only saw the walls and the inside of King Coma's middle age castle)

Usual means of access: Falling into a coma

Significant Inhabitants: King Coma

First Appearance: (Mentioned) Fantastic Four: True Story#3 (November, 2008); (seen) Fantastic Four: True Story#4 (January, 2009)

History: (Fantastic Four: True Story#3 - BTS) - The Kingdom of Coma was adjecent to the Kingdom of Anestesia and the Nightmare Dimension (Nightmare considered both realms petty and shabbily run). When human author Stephen G. Diesner turned Nightmare into a fictional character the Land of Fiction became also a neighboring dimension of the Kingdom of Coma.

(Fantastic Four: True Story#3 - BTS) - Injured by one of Nightmare's soldiers Mr. Fantastic fell into a coma and welcomed it because the coma sent his astral form to the Kingdom of Coma.

(Fantastic Four: True Story#4 (fb) ) - Mr. Fantastic had an audience with King Coma, who confirmed Reed's suspicion that Nightmare was behind the conquest of the Land of Fiction. King Coma was worried about Nightmare's conquering ways and Mr. Fantastic gave him military information for free passage through his realm to the unguarded crossroads to the neighboring dimensions....and in the end Nightmare got defeated by the Fantastic Four.

The Kingdom of Coma should be considered between the scenes whenever a character falls into a coma.

CLARIFICATIONS:
The Kingdom of Coma and King Coma have no known connection to:


King Coma

King Coma was a large, aged man with a calm demeanor.

(Fantastic Four: True Story#4 (fb) - BTS) - King Coma was the king of the Kingdom of Coma. Nightmare had no respect for him and considered King Coma and his realm petty and shabbily run. Because of that Nightmare had the borders to King Coma's realm not even guarded.

(Fantastic Four: True Story#4 (fb) ) - King Coma confirmed to Mr. Fantastic that Nightmare was behind the conquest of the Land of Fiction. He was worried about Nightmare's territorial ambitions. Mr. Fantastic gave King Coma military information in exchange for free passage through King Coma's realm to the unguarded borders of the neighboring dimensions, which King Coma granted him.
