Look they kept that evil Japanese Pagoda the Hand built for Shadowland up for like 5 years until Dan Slott decided to actually clean it up, if Limbo wants an embassy fine can’t be worse then the Latvarian Embassy
Matt is actually dealing with his “guardian angel” of sorts as well, heaven is real while dealing with Frank Castle running the Hand so he has a bit on his plate right now
In fairness, the Sanctum Sanctorum is like 4-5 storeys tall. You can't see it unless you're on that street. Spidey and Daredevil can get on with their business and it doesn't really need to be referenced or visible.
This building is fucking massive and dominates the skyline. You can maybe handwave it with Daredevil and just say its not visible from Hell's Kitchen, but you can't really do that with Spidey. This is just a thing he has to swing passed now.
What was the name of that fanatically religious, Anti-Mutant faction that would totally use this as "See, mutants must be evil, the leader of Hell's embassy is one!"
Okay, see, I have no idea who Asbestos Man is, if he exists, but I'm just gonna choose to believe that that's what people call Montana because of his gimmick of using an asbestos lasso, back when he did that.
shit, i'm kind of out of the loop for marvel e-listers, i don't know if the enforcers have shown up for anything outside of the spectacular spider-man cartoon in the past couple of decades
Asbestos Man is a Fantastic Four villain who went around in a full asbestos suit that the Human Torch couldn't burn through. It gave him incurable cancer and left him nearly bedridden.
It's New York in the Marvel 616 and with amount of B.S. that happens there constantly, I doubt the only thing the residents would care about is what it may do to their rent.
This is a city that has had Hulk waging a world war, the Avengers and their bullshit, the X-Men and their bullshit, the Fantastic Four and their bullshit, people swinging around on webs, guys dressed like devils flipping around, soldiers wearing skulls on their chest gunning down any criminal possible, an invincible man as mayor, and fucking Galactus showing up.
The demon tower is nothing.
I can only assume that having to deal with the expenses of New York living is going to lead Limbo to use those wailing souls as cheap labour for manufacturing, then pocket all the revenue (they don’t seem like they’d pay their eternally enslaved souls anything, much less a living wage).
Why does your governmental building need to be a giant evil castle from Conan the Barbarian. Why are there just a bunch of bat demons flying around the NY skyline and no one gives a fuck.
Actual answer, probably because an embassy is technically land belonging to the other area. So New York didn't build it, Limbo just threw a tower there.
The Marvel US government would work with a literal hell on earth before accepting mutants.
If anything, Cyclops' Krakoan delegates hindered the process.
Tbf the mutants already have their own heaven
Having one of their own run a hell/ another as sorcerer supreme of a hell its just completing the set.
Besides of all the marvel hells limbo is less biblical and more like the negative zone with some ghouls
What kind of mandate do Marvel's higherups have for Hell opening up diplomatic relations with other nations/the human world? It's happened here *and* in the Mister Sinister Age of Apocalypse-style dystopian future event that just started last week.
"Opened diplomatic relations with Hell? Try solving New York's homeless problem!" "By feeding them to Hell?" "Meh, details."

It was hilarious in superior spider-man when Otto just calls out the insanity of it being there and nobody doing a thing about it
Would love for Dr.Strange try dealing with this, but I think that would need the mutants okay it or have it after the island stuff is over
Jed MacKay is about to start his ongoing Dr. Strange run and he loves to be aware and incorporate ongoing continuity so there’s a good chance he will
Cool, hell maybe he even asked for it if he is known for doing so
It looks like something from one of the more supernatural set ups of TMNT
This better mean Rek-Rap can visit Spider-Man whenever he wants.
"WHAT'S TINGLING, PETER-MAN? HOW'S ABOUT WE SPIDEY-SPRANG SOME EVIL-DOERS?" "Oh ***fuck off...*** "
I know that people don’t like this event, but like, Dr Strange probably lives a block away, this could be a fun lil thing like that.
Daredevil comes across a demon curse, goes to the Hell Embassy, needs to get past Hell’s Beuracracy to find his info, etc
A whole story of a hero going through the same stall 5 times cuz they don't have the right form would justify all of this.
need the form a38
There's [an entire game made around this concept.](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=axGMMWyGaic)

And Wanda's now running her own little Sanctum-esque boutique shop with a magic door
All these magic places just have yelp reviews now
I mean I suppose that's the natural evolution of the afterlife being a real place that living people can visit
Gotta love how Madelyne was one of the people who started everything in Dark Web, and yet she gets the happy ending and everything is blamed on Ben.
“That demonic tower is new. Limbo? Eh that’s cool.” “ARE THOSE MUTANTS!? FUCKIN YUCK!!!”
What was the name of that fanatically religious, Anti-Mutant faction that would totally use this as "See, mutants must be evil, the leader of Hell's embassy is one!"
The Purifiers, wasn't it? Had a fire obsession too, if they're the ones I'm thinking of.
What they gonna do with Asbestos Man? >!Asbestos Man isn't actually a mutant tho.!<

Asbestos Man is a Fantastic Four villain who went around in a full asbestos suit that the Human Torch couldn't burn through. It gave him incurable cancer and left him nearly bedridden.
Asbestos Man was a villain who was created in the 60's, back when construction companies still used Asbestos for fireproofing.
As long as you're familiar with Joshua Waldemeyer, that's all you need.
That day the Goths rejoiced

Yes no you gonna pay so much property taxes for that tower you're going back into hiding
How much revenue does Limbo even generate? "The wailing souls of the departed" is not legal tender.
> "The wailing souls of the departed" is not legal tender. You're just not trying hard enough.

I mean have you seen the rats
because conan needs to feel at home too (reminder hes apart of the marvel universe now)
I FORGOT THAT WAS A THING.
I think they actually JUST lost the right to him.

Being a New Yorker, I can say that yeah, that would probably be our reaction.

God this event is stupid.
…ya know opening a portal to Hell really isn’t making me like mutants more
Tbf the mutants already have their own heaven Having one of their own run a hell/ another as sorcerer supreme of a hell its just completing the set. Besides of all the marvel hells limbo is less biblical and more like the negative zone with some ghouls
XMen comics really went all out knowing the MCU wasn't going to use them for a decade, huh?
What kind of mandate do Marvel's higherups have for Hell opening up diplomatic relations with other nations/the human world? It's happened here *and* in the Mister Sinister Age of Apocalypse-style dystopian future event that just started last week.
At least diplomacy is being attempted.
Isn’t Madeline the goblin queen? Which is kinda a funny title the more you say it
Is she alive again? I lost track of how many times she's died.
What is it with Marvel and ruining Spider-Man stories to prop up Mephisto and hell?
As normal as that Hell-Casino run by demons Dr Strange accidentally made in Las Vegas
