Hey I was just wondering: with the new Un-Set next on the dockett, would it work to have them have their own plane and general story? maybe something small and open-ended like the plane for Conspiracy sets. and if they do introduce new planes, would they be off-limits for Creative and the main story? the multiverse is vast, after all.
and if they do get their own plane, wouldn't that mean they get native planeswalkers?
Unstable has its own plane and story to go along with the set. The Plane is set in the "Un-"Multiverse so there are (presumably) other planes along with it but they are not connected to the canonical Multiverse of normal sets.

"So the Domina Multiverse, Un-Multiverse, and Sparks Multiverse are all separate, right? Are there any other Multiverses we should know about?"
Oh oh, I've just read the links above... Dominia and Un-multiverse I now of, but what is the Sparks?!?
"Sparks" is a "sitcom" type comic that Mark Rosewater puts out on his Blog and Twitter. It features a number of Planeswalkers (basically any that have Funco figures) and is more or less all the planeswalkers living in an apartment together. And Nicol Bolas is the landlord. The comic sometimes, but not always, mirrors the actual Magic storyline as best as can be done in the different setting. For example, the most current ones are about Jace losing his memory. One of the readers on Blogatog provided the name "Sparks" for the storyline. Here is an example:
So, the story today pretty much confirms that the events of Unstable take place on a plane called Bablovia. As well as being pretty funny, it details the origins of each of the five major factions, as well as the squirrels. Who knew Mark Rosewater was so good at worldbuilding?
I would've laughed so hard if they showed the Earl of Squirrel at the end of the story. I definitely am glad that they touched on the squirrels briefly.

He was a writer before magic (he credit with two Roseanne episodes) and was on creative for sometime. If he wasn't so busy as head designer, he'd probability be doing stuff in creative as well.

The story was a bit over-exposition-y, but still great for what it was. I liked the explanation for the WG color identity of the Crossbreed Labs (and it poking fun at the idea of "otherkin").

They're not meant to be taken seriously at the end of the day, so their existence not being canon in the multiverse wouldn't be a big deal IMO.

So would you say that the Un Multiverse and the "normal" Multiverse are part of an even bigger Omniverse?

Solution? Make it a dream of Jace or something.
