Alternate Timelines was a fic archive focused on X-Force, Cable and Domino, created by Jen Morrioghan. It was later merged with Alicia's archives - Dayspring Archive and various others - making it one of the largest archives since Fonts of Wisdom.

The original archive was set up by Jen in January 1999[1] and besides the fanfiction archive included a "Feature of the Month"[2], Announcements and a Story Challenge. Background art was provided by jilko-art. The site also hosted discussion message boards and Dex's IMHO review column.

Between September 2001 and December 2001 (according to the Wayback captures), Alternate Timelines relocated to a new domain and became an "archive group" similar to Alara.net. It collected a number of pre-existing archives, including Alicia's Cable and personal fanfic archives, her DuAnn and Dandelion collections and the Shadowlands site.[3] Submissions were accepted for some collections via the Alternate Timelines mailing list on YahooGroups.

Around March 2004, the archive group was merged with the Itty Bitty Archives to create Comicfic.net.

Collections

The archive featured the following collections:

I strongly recommend these stories. IMO they represent some of the best you will find on the web. Enjoy and be sure to send lots of feedback to the authors."
