Today's article will be devoted to the topic of the most powerful entities of the Marvel universe. These include the so-called abstract entities - phenomena with which you can talk. Most of these entities live in the so-called “Superspace” (Overspace), where you can get, having increased well. Only the most developed minds can avoid going crazy when they find themselves in Superspace. For example, Henry Pym, a scientist who has changed a bunch of heroic nicknames, was able to have a nice chat with one of the inhabitants of Overspace (no less, the Living Tribunal), and the Absorber (a supervillain with the power to absorb the properties of materials and turn into them) fainted after 10 seconds contemplation of the “world of the gods”.

Eternity

We will begin the tale about the inhabitants of Overspace from Eternity (Eternity) - living time concept. Eternity (with its sister, Infinity) is a representative of the pantheon of Necessity - one of the “fundamental cosmic forces”. The other two powers are Balance (c) and Retribution (Death and Oblivion). The first person Eternity came into contact with was the Sorcerer Supreme. Most of the time, Eternity lives on its own, contacting the heroes only when the entire universe is facing a chilling danger. However, in order to better understand people, Eternity visited Earth several times, taking the form of a man, bearing the name “Adam Quadmon”.

In fact, Eternity is the united consciousness of all forms of life; it exists everywhere in the universe and still tries to prevent catastrophes on a universal scale. He has several “children” - separate intelligent concepts and concepts that separated from him. Empathy, Expediency, Epoch, Entropy, Hostility, and more. During the cosmic trial of , who was accused of not killing Galactus, Eternity was summoned and testified in Richards' defense, temporarily imbuing everyone present with cosmic wisdom and letting them know that Galactus was the "orderly man of the universe." However, for all his power, Eternity is not omnipotent. He was able to defeat and capture him, taking possession of all the Infinity Stones, and in relatively recent comics he was killed (Beyonders) .

Infinity

Infinity (Infinity)– sister and other side of Eternity. Sometimes Eternity and Infinity appear as one entity, halved. If Eternity represents time, then Infinity represents space. Eternity and Infinity are in a state of eternal opposition, but not enmity, with Death and Oblivion. Eternity and Infinity expand the universe and increase life, Death and Oblivion destroy life and shrink the universe. And Galactus chose neutrality and does not take one side. To counteract the Vortex (Maelstrom), champion of Oblivion, Infinity empowered Quasar (Quasar) Having made him his “avatar”, Thor’s father possesses a tiny share of the power of Infinity.

One-Above-All

The main god of the entire Marvel Multiverse, One-Above-All (One-Above-All), which is often confused with the one with the same name. One-Above-All is omnipotent. There is no power higher than him. The Living Tribunal was considered extremely powerful, but it is nothing compared to this comrade. “There is no trick against a crowbar if there is no other crowbar” - so, there is no trick against this crowbar. He is stronger than all other entities combined. He is Stan Lee and Jack Kirby rolled into one (and sometimes appeared with their appearance). And that is why he quite rarely interferes in the life of the Multiverse.

Death

Death is one of the most sociable entities. She can be found in Superspace, but usually she lives in her own dimension, the afterlife, where all the dead go. Death often manifested itself in the form of a pale girl or human skeleton, under the name Mistress Death. In this form, Thanos, a powerful titan, fell in love with her, and for her sake he killed a bunch of creatures, exterminating entire species. In addition, Death has an affair with, but since Deadpool cannot die, he is not destined to meet his lover often. Death spent some time in the body of Marlo Jones, the wife of Rick Jones, a friend, in order to learn human emotions.

5

Oblivion

Oblivion (Oblivion)- brother and another aspect of Death, just like in the situation with Eternity and his sister, Infinity. Oblivion is a counterbalance to the expanding universe, it destroys life. Most often, he lives in his own pocket universe, called the “External Void” (Outer Void). Oblivion has a daughter, Mirage, who briefly dated Iceman (from the X-Men), and wanted to use him to confront her father. Oblivion wanted to use Iceman to straighten his daughter’s brains. As a result, Bobby (that’s the name of Icy) sent both of them to hell, saying, solve your own universal conflicts. Quite often, Oblivion acts with the help of “avatars,” endowing some already powerful character with cosmic powers.

Living Tribunal

Living Tribunal (Living Tribunal)- one of the most powerful beings even among the endless cosmic forces. Its power is also indicated by the fact that if Eternity, Infinity and other entities are different in each world of the Multiverse, then there is only one Living Tribunal for the entire Multiverse. His three faces symbolize Revenge, Necessity and Balance. He can easily transfer worlds from one universe to another, and destroying a planet is a piece of cake for him. The Living Tribunal is considered the first after the One-Above-All. However, he was also killed by the Beyonders.

7

Interval

Interval (In-Betweener)- a product of Order and Chaos, combining elements of both. It is considered the complete opposite of Galactus, who is also a force of balance, but is neither order nor chaos. The gap simultaneously exists and does not exist, it is everywhere and nowhere. He was put in an interdimensional prison for the gods seriously and for a long time when he set out to kill Galactus.

8

Lord Chaos and Master Order

Master Order and Lord Chaos are two entities unable to exist without each other. Chaos always asks tricky questions, and Order tries to answer. To find a compromise, they both created the “Between,” an entity that unites their abilities. However, this entity decided to cut hardcore and madness, so she was arrested and hidden away. However, this entity is worth special mention.

9

Abraxas

Abraxas (Abraxas)– the living embodiment of destruction. Abraxas was born and raised in the center of Eternity. To counter him, Eternity created an entity with similar powers, embodying balance - Galactus. When Galactus died, Abraxas, who had previously been in hibernation, woke up and began traveling through various parallel realities, killing people, aliens and other Galactuses. Once on Earth-616, he stole the Nullifier, a device capable of destroying anything. and Valeria Richards, the children of Mister Fantastic and , used their cosmic powers to revive Galactus, who already dealt with Abraxas, and Reed Richards used the Nullifier to “reboot” the universe, erasing Abraxas from it forever.

10

Wanderer

Wanderer (Stranger)- a mysterious entity that at different times either tried to destroy the Earth or helped the heroes. The Wanderer himself claimed that he was the result of a merger of the minds of several billion inhabitants of the planet Gigantus. However, the Living Tribunal said that this was a lie, and in fact the Traveler was a breakaway aspect from the Living Tribunal, its “fourth face”, which greatly interfered with the Tribunal’s performance of its divine functions. He also pretended to be the Beyonder for a while, doing the same thing as the Beyonder himself, kidnapping heroes and villains for a crossover battle.

11

Aegis, Lady of All Sorrows

Aegis, Lady of All Sorrows (Aegis, She of all Sorrows) - one of the Ancient Gods, whose task was to remove all bad deviations from the universe. When life in the universe began to develop, it turned out that the Ancient Gods were no longer needed. To prevent their disappearance, Diablerie (one of the ancient gods) gathered his followers (including Aegis and her companion, the Gloomy) and planned to conquer the universe with them, but Galactus stopped them all and imprisoned them in a mechanospatial prison. Aegis and Grim were freed and were about to continue, but they were destroyed by the Silver Surfer, luring them to the barrier separating our universe from the Negative Zone. And then Aegis completely died, fighting with energies from a rotten parallel universe.

12

Century

One of the children of Eternity and Infinity - Century (Eon), patron of time. It's hard to imagine, but he is a good guy. He resisted Oblivion by giving powers to lower beings. In particular, Vek created the Quantum Bracelets, items that are in many ways reminiscent of the Green Lantern Rings from the DC Universe. The Children of the Century inherited his power.Marvel Comics

Observers

Observers (Watchers)- one of the oldest races in the universe, all they do is observe the development of other peoples without interfering. They adopted a policy of non-interference after they helped one alien race - they gave out nuclear technology. Nuclear weapons were quickly built from technology, the aliens staged a real planetary pogrom for themselves, and then they also blamed the Observers for this.

15

Watcher Uatu

Despite the ban on direct intervention, at least one Observer constantly intervened in the events taking place. Uatu watching over the Earth. Uatu is the son of Ikor, the Watcher who wrote the code of non-interference. He has been observing the Earth for several billion years. Uatu settled in an abandoned Kree settlement in the so-called "blue lunar region" - an area on the Moon where Earth's atmosphere exists. According to the Sleeping Celestial, Uatu has intervened 400 times throughout Earth's history, which is unforgivable for the Watchers.

However, with all his kindness, Uatu sometimes has to persuade him and beg him for help - sometimes his “I am the right observer” mode turns on, and he can even ignore someone who is dying right under his feet. Although most of his adventures boil down to “I swore never, ever to interfere, but now I will,” it’s always like that. Most of the time, Uatu watches the Earth from his observatory on the Moon, but sometimes he comes in person, and if this bald giant showed up in person, then something epic is coming that is too boring to watch through a telescope.

Uatu has helped the Fantastic Four on numerous occasions, even providing his home for Reed and Sue's honeymoon. He was a good and interesting character, kind at heart, despite the principles of non-interference that were hammered in from time to time... it’s a pity that he was killed, yes, he was killed. In the Original Sin storyline, villains broke into Uatu's house, stole several of his instruments, and tore out his eye. And then Nick Fury came, shot Uatu and tore out his other eye. This storyline outraged many comic book fans.

Uatu is the most famous Watcher. But there were a lot of them, it’s just...who is interested in Observers who are not watching the Earth? One can note Kyra, who discovered a cosmic race that had been hiding for many billions of years from the eyes of Observers. The aliens sued Kayra in a space court, and he was ordered to “sew his mouth shut” so that he would never tell anyone about this race. You can also note Aron, Uatu’s nephew, who started cutting hardcore. Uatu punished his nephew, but this was regarded as the last and most blatant interference, and Uatu was then fired from his official post as an Observer, turning his work into a hobby.

What do children love most? Of course, cartoons. It is in this section that we have collected a variety of foreign and domestic cartoons.

An art form such as animation has been around for quite a long time. During this time, the quality has improved, which is good news. Children of any generation absolutely love cartoons; everyone, as a child, loved cartoons. Many adults at one time had to wait on TV and had to watch what was shown. Some people were lucky at one time if their parents bought cassettes or discs.

They are dominated by entertainment, adult jokes, and teenage problems. These are mainly foreign multi-part cartoons, such as “The Simpsons”, “Family Guy”, “Futurama”, etc.


Don't forget about adults. Yes, they also draw for adults, only they are somewhat similar to teenagers, but they are more rude, there may be curse words, intimate overtones, and adult problems are touched upon (family life, work, loans, midlife crisis, etc.).

Biography

Abraxas is the living embodiment of destruction in the Marvel Multiverse. There is no exact information about its origin, but it can be assumed that it appeared along with the birth of the Multiverse and was a living embodiment of destruction. Abraxas grew up in the depths of the Multi-Eternity, an immortal being that includes the entire Multiverse. Eternity feared that Abraxas would destroy the Multiverse, so he created beings that could resist him. These beings were sent throughout the universes and later became known as Galactus. It was they who restrained the villain inside his “father”. This continued until Galactus of Earth-616 was killed. After this, Abraxas broke out of captivity and went to destroy the Galactuses from parallel universes, as they could prevent him from destroying the Multiverse. Although he had enough power to destroy the universe, he nevertheless needed the Ultimate Nullifre to accomplish his plan.

Abraxas attacked Uatu the Watcher and knocked him unconscious so that no one could tell the heroes of Earth about the threat approaching them. He knew that the location of the Nullifier was known only to the Human Torch and therefore, to attract the attention of the Fantastic Four, he threw the head of the dead Galactus from a parallel universe onto the ground, hoping that the Fantastic Four would find the Nullifier, which he wanted needed.

Due to Abraxas' actions, a hole was formed in space, which allowed creatures to move between universes. Through this hole, Nova from a parallel universe entered the universe of Earth-616.

After this, the Fantastic Four, along with Silver Surfer, Quasar, Moondragon, Nova and Captain Universe, went to the Moon to find Uatu the Observer there. On the Moon, the Silver Surfer was killed while trying to protect Uatu from the minions of Abraxas. After the fight was over, Abraxas showed the heroes his hologram, which depicted him all on fire and laughing at them. Captain Universe later asked Eternity to show him and Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic) how powerful Abraxas is. Eternity agrees and shows them Abraxas around whom the dead Galactuses lie.

They then learn that the Human Torch only has partial knowledge of where the Ultimate Nullifier is. Upon learning of this, they set out to find the remaining Torches in order to find the Nullifier with their combined knowledge.

After they found him, Nova betrayed the team. Having stolen the Nullifier from the heroes, she gave it to Abraxas, thereby showing that she serves him. After this, Abraxas learned that Roma had teleported Franklin Richards and Valeria von Doom to her to help her deal with him. Then the villain teleported to them and killed Roma, but the children managed to escape. After some time, the heroes began to fight against the army of Abraxas. Seeing that they were losing, Franklin Richards, along with Valeria von Doom, joined forces and resurrected the dead Galactus. While Abraxas was distracted, the resurrected Galactus took the Nullifier from him, telling him that the Nullifier was as much a part of his body as his heart. He then gave it to Reed Richards, who used it to destroy Abraxas. After that, everything returned to its place. All the dead creatures, including Galactus, came to life, Franklin lost his powers, and Valeria turned out to be an unborn baby in the womb of the Invisible Woman.

Powers and abilities

Powers

Abraxas is able to change his appearance and his powers have no clear limits, but he is known to be able to manipulate an almost limitless amount of comic energy. He can change reality on a huge scale to achieve his goals. His powers are so great that they are enough to single-handedly deal with more than ten Galacti at a time or destroy the entire universe.

Abilities

Omniscience: Abraxas knows almost everything about the universe.

Alternate universes

Abraxas existed in a single copy.

  • Abraxas can kill with a kiss.
  • Abraxas killed all the Galacti in the Multiverse.

Abraxas is a Gnostic cosmological deity. He and similar deities are depicted as a zoomorphic creature - with a human torso and animal body parts.

The Gnostic world-making system is very complex. It contains countless heavens and aeons (in Gnostic terminology, these are spiritual beings - emanations of the Divine). Therefore, there must be some kind of force that will move the world, personify all time and space. Abraxas is considered to be precisely this driving force.

Abraxas

Who is the god Abraxas? Since the 2nd century AD, in Syria and Alexandria it was believed that he is the heavenly head, demonstrating in all his ways the Absolute, the completeness of the Universe, He is the universe.

Abraxas was depicted in different ways. On finds from the 2nd century we see a creature with a human body, the head of a rooster, human hands and snakes instead of legs.

Often, a round shield was depicted in the right hand (identified with the Sun), while in the other the god was clutching a weapon (a whip, a club). It is believed that the image of a deity can be carried with you - it is a powerful talisman.

According to the followers of Basilides, the uncreated father (the supermundane good) created the mind, the word, the mind, which gave rise to wisdom and strength. Such creations are collectively equal to the image of Abraxas.

Abraxas leads all spirits, is the strongest of the gods, but is equal in strength to all gods. According to Basilides, the Gnostic guardian of the Universe can be a mediator between all people and the divine absolute.

The Guardian of the Universe is a warrior who fights darkness in all its forms. He is fair, he understands what patterns there should be in the world and what needs to be done so that everything corresponds to the creator’s plan. He was represented with a rooster's head; he personifies the rising of the Sun - this bird is the first to greet each new morning.

It was often associated with knowledge and prosperity, which is achieved only through victory over circumstances, enemies, and everyone who wishes evil. There is no doubt that Abraxas will be able to defeat all enemies, since the whip (club) in his hands symbolizes strength and victory over his rivals.

Name decoding

Symbol Abraxas Sign of the Gnostic god from an antique gem

His name may be a transformation of the Hebrew word "abberaka", which translates as "blessed". Adherents of another theory agreed that the name is an image of a magic formula, which stands for “Do not harm me” (“Do not touch”).

The name of the deity consists of 7 Greek letters, which can already be regarded as a sign, since some sources indicate that “the magic number 7 symbolizes the general idea of ​​the Universe.”

In the system of Basilides, the name “Abraxas” is endowed with a special magical meaning. To understand this, you need to add up all the numbers that are identified with the letters of the Greek alphabet (which are in the word):

Α = 1, Β = 2, Ρ = 100, Α = 1, Σ = 200, Α = 1, Ξ = 60.

As a result, we get 365 - the number of days in a year. Also 365 is the number of Gnostic heavens.

Jung on the Guardian of the Universe

Carl Jung argued that the Guardian of the Universe is truly a universal deity, since he is both a monster and the personification of love, a hermaphrodite, something that combines both principles. Jung was so struck by this image that, mentioning it in “Seven Sermons to the Dead,” he said:

In that world, man belongs to Abraxas, who creates or absorbs him, man, and the world.

Where was the image of Abraxas, guardian of the universe, used?

The image of God has been used for many centuries. For example, in the 13th century he was depicted on the seals of the Templar Order. The peculiarity was that he was associated with the powerful Baphomet.

Seal of the Templars

At the same time, the image of the creature was applied to talismans; the symbol was very common among alchemists. Over time, the name of the guardian of the Universe began to be associated not with a Gnostic deity, but with demonic and black magic.

Today, Abraxas is a frequent hero of comics, TV series, and books. We meet him in Marvel comics, in the series “Charmed”, in the film “Jupiter Ascending”, in “Harry Potter” this was the name of Lucius Malfoy’s father.

As you can see, the image of Abraxas has been transformed over time. Initially, it was an image of the all-encompassing absolute, which later became associated with black magic and humanism. However, to this day, Abraxas is not just one of the forgotten deities of old, but an important Gnostic symbol.
