New page

'''Hypertext Time''' is the metafictional pseudoscientific theory that time is like a web page. History resembles a vast mosaic of discrete events, much like web pages, joined by metaphorical hypertext links that connect one moment to the next. When time travel or [[retcon]]s change these events, the "links" may not be updated immediately or at all, resulting in temporal anomalies. Paradoxically, this increases the stability of the timeline, allowing structurally-important events to stay in place even as everything changes around them. Furthermore, the previous versions of history still exist, and may be "restored from backup" via temporal change or [[Writer]] fiat.

Like all ridiculous theories in comics, it's absolutely true, and the term "Hypertext Time" also refers to the layers of superseded history that result from this. Higher-dimensional beings, like [[Mister Morrison]] and [[Chaos Theory]], have the ability to navigate this possibility space.

(It's also a blatant parody of DC Comics's Hypertime, but shhhh.)
