Doctor Doom Stands Alone Against the Beyonder! The mystery of desire was still at the forefront of his mind: as an omnipotent being, he couldn't understand what it meant to want something and not be able to get it (ironically, the one thing he was unable to do was understand desire). The Beyonder attacks them, but Doom persuades him that they are there to talk. Boom Boom remarked that they didn't seem to worried about him, and he said they were, they just didn't show it. After the death of Death, the Beyonder increasingly began to become the target of conflict on a large scale. Doom, however, began to wrestle with his new limitless nature, and started to become unstable. [11], Intrigued by what he has witnessed during the first Secret Wars, the Beyonder comes to Earth during the Secret Wars II story line to walk among humans and study them and learn of human desire firsthand. Eventually, they decided to bring Adams' parents back, feeling that that such a thing could not be wrong. In the meantime, the Beyonder went back into his machine. They then said that this was not true, because he was created by his mutant gene, as if that were not natural. Still cocky, the Beyonder tried to defeat Protege, but Protege's powers continued to grow until it was more than the Beyonder could handle. For the Beyonder it was like when the Dutch inventor Van Leeuwenhoek, looked through his microscope and discovered little paramecia swimming in a drop of water. She hoped that with the current universe destroyed, the Beyonder would lose interest in it, and would at least not destroy the future universe, whereas if he continued on his present course, he would probably destroy not only the current universe but any future ones as well. He was, however, missing his memories of the time he spent in the other man's body. The heros attempt to stop the assult and don't suceed until Iron Man fires a laser to knock the Lizard out. Fueled by rage and The Beyonder's energy, Phoenix drops the celestial-god to his knees, a feat no other Marvel Comics character ever achieved. This was the first time the Beyonder was actually "seen" on panel; he appeared simply as a omnipresent energy surrounding Doom. He further altered his physical appearance, giving himself black curly hair and maintained this form for most of the rest of his existence on Earth. The future Molecule Man is too weak to absorb its full power. [2], The Beyonders were greatly expanded upon in Al Ewing's Defenders: Beyond series. The Beyonder considered this request to be reasonable but was stopped by Shaper of Worlds and Kubik. The Beyonder sought to make Alison Blaire (Dazzler), his lover, and even went so far as to bestow half of his power upon her so that they would be equals. The Beyonder resurrected Scion and returned to our universe. The Beyonder then argues that he can do this and introduces a planet Spider-Man might consider a "paradise", civilizations have good but no concept of evil. The Beyonders are a race of beings that exist "beyond" the Marvel multiverse. He later said that even as he was a human who was learning to be omnipotent, they were omnipotents who were learning to be human. He took a trip to soak up the good things about life on Earth. Powers and abilities The Beyonders have been witnessed killing all of the Celestials in the Marvel multiverse at the same time, destroying abstract entities. It turned out that the Secret Wars I-era Beyonder, sensing that Doom was dead in that time, brought him back from the current time and put this current Doom into place in the Secret Wars. She returned to the Defenders' compound and attacked them again. He quickly dispatched them with a nuclear-style explosion. Nonetheless, he possessed vastly limitless psionic abilities allowing him to control and manipulate numerous matter and energy at a cosmic level beyond all, but the strongest and most powerful of cosmic entities. Here is an explantion of the Beyonder's powers and power shifts as a result of the rectonned storylines. He then decided to try to take over the world in a more "limited" fashion than he had before: by doing it legally. The Beyonder simply walked out the window, and Cage jumped out to get him. Outraged Spider-Man told the Beyonder he could not do this and attacked only to jump right through him. Oracle revealed that the source of her madness was the Beyonder aspect inside of her. The Beyonder later met a street walker named Toots. Where he encounters some of the most powerful heroes and villains. The Beyonder is almost omniscient and omnipotent, capable of altering the fabric of reality to his will. Before, the Beyonder had been far more powerful than our entire multiverse. When Did the Molecule Man's Personality Change So Dramatically? Key: Beyonder Drones | The True Beyonders Notes: Before making any changes to this page, please read and follow the Power-scaling Rules for Marvel and DC Comics. [19], After being encouraged to find enlightenment by Doctor Strange, and failing, a frustrated Beyonder decides to destroy the entire multiverse, leading to several more battles with various Marvel superheroes, all of which end up with the Beyonder victorious. Captain Hero stopped by, looking for Iron Fist. He was first properly depicted by Al Milgrom in Secret Wars II #1. As the Beyonder himself replied, "But I'm part of the universe's natural order. He visited Alpha Flight and took a ring from Shaman's bag for her as a gift. [31], Furious, the Beyonder now believed that he had no role in the universe at all, and decided that he would be happier if he destroyed the Multiverse so that he would be alone once more. Then the Avengers attacked, but to no avail--he just lay there, listless, ignoring their attacks. The Beyonder is a recurring antagonist of Avengers Assemble. She later explained to Kubik (another sentient Cube like herself) that she felt that taking on the female form would obviate some of her previous problems, which had been partly derived from her male format. Doom uses his powers to force Spider-Man and the heros against a wall. The Puma was now brought to the absolute limit of his anger and his sense of righteousness in his cause. Nothing you dream of is impossible for me to accomplish!" I also added scans and references. Slay your enemies and all you desire shall be yours! Beta Ray Bill and Power Pack came up, and they were able to stop Kurse by having Energizer drain the energy from their hammers and shoot it all out as an energy ball. They continued to tour the multiverse together as Kubik taught Kosmos about existence. He left, once again putting the destruction of the universe on hold, fully realizing that it had all been an act on Rosenberg's part, but not caring, since Reece had been brought to despair in any case. The Beyonder was about to do it, but then suddenly Kubik and the Shaper of Worlds appeared. The Beyonder sensed him on his ocean base; he was there as part of a SHIELD mission to destroy it, but is now unsure if it's the right thing to do. These included a A Celestial, Eternity, Order and Chaos, the Living Tribunal, Uatu, the Gardener, the In-Betweener, and others. Their origin story was revealed and were tied to the Celestials; the "Beyond" space that they dwell was revealed to be formerly the Second Cosmos, the first multiverse that formed after the Celestial War. Galactus was rendered unconscious by the Beyonder's defenses, once again showing his limitless power. As a result, death, portrayed by Mephisto, cannot destroy him. Then, trying to teach her a lesson, he gave her an enormous amount of power--enough to kill him. She was now bluish white, instead of gold. Back in San Francisco, Rachel was only more determined to kill the Beyonder, and she still retained the power he had given her. [5] He eventually regained his power as the Molecule Man but damaged his relationship with Marsha. [3] When the Molecule Man extracted the Beyonder from Kosmos, their battle took place in more than three spatial dimensions, and threatened to cause vast destruction across the multiverse. By the time Mephisto planned to drop his contract with Thing, nearly all of the Legion Accursed were defeated. The Beyonder also had Klaw persuade Doom to grant him part of his power. Unfortunately, the Lizard's primal instincts kick in, and Doom is assaulted. He learned about Havok and became obsessed with him, although he wasn't sure why: he just had a subconscious feeling that he need to find him. Even this was not enough, and he took over literally every molecule on the planet. Reaching out to it, the Professor was overwhelmed, and found himself being pulled within the Beyonders consciousness. They agreed enthusiastically, and he cured Jones' cancer, turned Clark back into Starshine, and erased the Dire Wraith from Adams' mind. While the Beyonder's legacy is forever tied to Secret Wars, there are a few key issues that expand--and challenge--his character, as well. One of the passengers, Tabitha, ran up and started to walk with him. The Beyonder tried to court Dazzler by zapping her around to a number of exotic places throughout space, but she reacted with anger and fear, not knowing who he was or what he was trying to do! Having nothing else to do, he decided to go along with the man. Beyonder displayed the ability to control others without them knowing it even while being absorbed. He had collected the power that the Beyonder used to kill Death; this would make up the bulk of the power of the machine. He would fight against problems big and small, from muggers to tidal waves to cosmic forces like those of Mephisto. Impressed, the Beyonder kept his word and allowed existence to continue for another day. Her love had helped him overcome his own self-hate, and enabled him to love her back more freely. You can drink more potions of the same pathways without problems but it doesn't increase your strenght or at least not much, but the excesive acumulation of the beyonder characteristic will make you more prone to losing control, but this can be solved by having a child or using specific beyonders abilities or artifacts, so you could get rid of the excesive characteristic. Owen Reece, the conduit for the Beyonders' power, transferred that power to Reed Richards, leading to the Multiverse's recreation. In order to talk about the Beyonder's formative moments (his "childhood"), they went to the Beyond-realm and the Beyonder showed him the pinhole that first showed him our universe. However, Spider-Man stopped the Puma long enough for him to gain doubt in his role, and he lost his power, and was unable to hurt the Beyonder--a result that disappointed both the Puma and the Beyonder. [37], Despite his power, the Beyonder has shown moments of vulnerability. The Beyonder, once again sensing the possibility for an experiment, turned Cadwell into Thundersword. All was as it used to be. With regards to the two retcons, when Marvel re-assessed Secret Wars and Secret Wars II for the Official Handbook to the Marvel Universe in 2011, they cleared up the Beyonder's nature some what. The Beyonder would try to get a human (Peter Parker) to renounce his ideals, and Mephisto would try to keep him on the straight and narrow. Sue Richards provides a barrier until Storm is able to use her weather manipulation to recharge the bases defense mechanism. Chapter 3 "Doom" Spider-Man and the Lizard walking through a desert and are on their way to the kingdom of Doctor Victor Von Doom; they had been given coordinates by the Fantastic Four as to where they will all meet. Reece left in a fit of pique after saying his piece, and Dave finally understood. However, his scale of power has been stated as below that of the Living Tribunal and Eternity, the Celestials, or the Molecule Man (when unfettered from his emotional weaknesses). The One from Beyond asked him if this was how he really wanted it, and Reece said it was. There was now nothing left for him to desireexcept the challenge of defeating the Beyonder himself. Angry at Kurse, Power Pack dropped a building on him. Which Secret Wars Should The MCU Adapt for Film? Following Secret Wars and Secret Wars II, the Beyonder experienced many notable retcons. Beyonder demonstrates his abilities by splitting the Hulk and Bruce Banner apart before sending them to the other parts of Battleworld. Felicia's father disappeared for several years.Later, the Kingpin, Wilson Fisk, captured Felicia and agreed to keep her free of harm if her father gave Kingpin the formula,the agreement was made and Kingpin received the formula. [30] Upon reaching the House of Ideas, he decides to leave the story, promising to return on his own terms. (He was originally described as millions of times more powerful than the entire multiverse.). When she got back to Earth, she called the Avengers, who got together to attack him. This accident was of such importance for all of existence that it pierced through from our universe to "his," creating a pinhole through which he could peer through. [45] Lastly, while in his own words "technically omnipotent" this depends on the circumstances he is placed in as he doubted he would even stand a chance against the true Phoenix Force in the White Hot Room which suggests that the limits of his powers or how he measures up to other cosmic beings depends on the context of the situation (such as location or the authority of the other cosmic being in the hierarchy of existence). Venom is often considered the strongest overall because his powers and abilities are the most versatile. With this purpose in mind, The Beyonders create the Savage Land to analyze the evolution of mortal beings on Earth. Finally he gave her half of his power (making her more powerful than anyone else in existence), but it didn't matter. And so, as the narrative ended,"within the new universe begat by the Beyonder's powermortal beings live their mortal livesgiving meaning to the infinity in which they dwellthus, finally, is the desire of the One from Beyondfulfilled!". RELATED: When Did the Molecule Man's Personality Change So Dramatically? During the battle, he famously said, "The trouble is, lesser beings can't really perceive the bulk of the action--the billions of feints, thrusts, and parries per second--or the countless levels, besides the physical, upon which this fight, however one-sided, is taking place!" The Shaper developed from a Cube made by Skrull scientists. Kubik said that he and Kosmos were pure power--that if their power was taken, they would be nothing. Beyonder claims that the war is over and teleports everyone to space. omnipotent status. This statement was the prologue to a war between the two groups, as the villains attempted to fulfill the Beyonder's mission, and the heroes simply tried to return home. Ben informs everyone that Doom created a device to seperate powers, he can transform into the Thing at will. In the Marvel Apes universe, the Ape-Beyonder kidnapped the Earth heroes and villains to Battleworld to fight, as in the Earth-616 reality. Spider-Man then tells the Lizard the whole situation, convincing the Lizard to fight along side the rest of the heros. Unable to answer or even counter the questions posed by Loki, Those Who Sit Above in Shadows fled. Although the Beyonders were successful in destroying the Multiverse, Doctor Doom used their power to salvage its remnants and created Battleworld. Later on, the Avengers split into two groups to defeat Beyonder and his forces. This would probably suggest he was from a different universe. He teleported into Nebula's ship and, thinking he was helping the Avengers, teleported her away from the scene. He showed that he could change his physical form and erase the memory of others. The Beyonder begged him for enlightenment. Instead, he learns the incursions are being caused by the Beyonders, whom he also refers to as the Ivory Kings. [28], The Beyonder appears to the Defenders after they left the multiverse. He explored New York City in a naive fashion, trying to replicate basic human experiences like eating and wearing clothing, but inevitably made innocent mistakes, like eating a soda bottle along with its contents. The Beyonder of this reality was annihilated by The Council of Reeds using a dangerous and powerful weapon called Sol's Anvil. He later appeared in front of her, Professor Xavier, and Magneto. Much like Thanos, The Beyonder can shape, change and--if desired--destroy worlds and realities. First he had an affair with a beautiful woman named Sharon Ing. First, however, it was time for revenge. [36], The Beyonder proved capable of destroying, and recreating, the abstract entity known as Death across the multiverse, although it extremely exerted and weakened him to do so. Spider-Man is contacted and is informed that the rebels are getting impatient and are in need of assistance while fighting cyber skulls. He told the Beyonder that he must fight for what is right, and that such a fight must involve sacrifice. Cage was still angry, but Rand calmed him down, and Cage eventually went on to explain more about the importance of time and money.

The One-Above-All's powers and abilities The One-Above-All is Omnipotent (All Powerful), Omniscient (All Knowing), and Omnipresent (Everywhere). He appeared in his silvery armored form which he had once used in the Avengers. The Beyonder then appeared, and gave her what she asked for, then left. All that Phoenix experienced--the totality of life, in all its forms, in all its infinite glory--is now his." Later, he visited Power Man, Iron Fist, and Falcon, who were discussing their building that he had turned to gold. Victory tried to warn the Beyonder of his target of amusement but the Beyonder would not listen, and brought them back to his universe (the Beyond-realm attached to that reality). When entire universes throughout the Multiverse began to collide with each other, with each universe's respective Earth being the points of impactevents known as "incursions"the Avengers send Hank Pym to find answers at the start of the "Time Runs Out" storyline. [42], After his creator, Jim Shooter, left Marvel, writer-editor Tom DeFalco re-tooled the Beyonder, diminishing his power greatly: He was no longer nearly omnipotent, and several of the cosmic beings who were previously established to be below him in power were vastly upgraded in conjunction.[23][43][44][45]. Also, his power is omnipotence. But even the man of steel has his weaknesses. Secret Wars II: A Complete Guide to Marvel's Forgotten Crossover, Doctor Strange 2 Just Gave the MCU a Better Dark Phoenix Story, One of Marvel's Most Powerful Villains, The Beyonder, Returns for a New Defenders Story, Marvel's Secret Wars II Was Ahead of Its Time. These rebels plan on assulting the Red Skull's base. An example being when the Celestials lost to Beyonder; in the revised story line they wanted to observe his actions. Kosmos and Kubik then departed as a couple. While this version of the Beyonder wasn't as powerful as the original Pre-Retcon Beyonder, he shares the same feats, this is because because beings of higher power allowed him too. They were not above manipulation of beings that they saw as being "below" them: at one point the two of them created a moon-sized space station and ran the Fantastic Four through a series of exercises like lab rats. More heroes arrived, but the Beyonder continued to mow them down. Thanos instructs the Shi'ar that the body should be kept alive but brain-dead, or the Beyonder essence would go free again. He had never possessed a true form of his own before, but now he created for himself a physical form that resembled a composite of the bodies of various participants in the "secret war," in order that he could walk amongst humanity and fulfill his own desire for experience in this world. Stripped of their power, Kubik and Kosmos would not exist, while Reece would still exist. Doom asks all the heros to live in his kingdom, and Reed Richards accuses Doom of only wanting praise and servitude. (Since it was implied that her essence would escape if her body was killed, then it would seem that her essence should be on the loose, but this has never been dealt with or mentioned.). Powerful beyond all comprehension, The Beyonders live in a universe beyond the Marvel Comics multiverse. They were both sentient Cosmic Cubes--Cosmic Cubes that had evolved into having self-awareness and personalities. [20], Long after the Secret Wars II crossover had ended, a Deadpool special featured the "Secret Wars II continues in this issue" corner tag that was used during that original storyline. Sphinx quotes: "He who questions training only trains himself at asking questions." The Beyonders are a omnipotent (but not omniscient) alien race that exist outside the omniverse (basically living beyond all of reality, time, space, and the dimensions).. The Molecule Man, narrates The Beyonder's origin story while Doctor Doom and The Fantastic Four listen on. He is an extradimensional being who has been depicted as a cosmic force with unimaginable power. Druig is a member of the genetically engineered Eternals, which came to Earth around 5000 BC. He began a life of vice, gaining weight until he realized how bad it looked. Every Inhuman enters Terrigen Mists to gain the superhuman powers that the race is known for. [22] When the Molecule Man's lover Volcana leaves him, he becomes angry, extracts the Beyonder from Kosmos, and proceeds to attack him until Kubik intervenes. The most omnipotent character in Marvel is arguably the cosmic entity known as "The Beyonder". He intervened, and saved her. They are powerful enough to kill every abstract and cosmic being rather easily. Upon discovering the truth of the Ivory Kings, Pym returns to the Illuminati to warn them about their enemy: the Beyonders. As everything once again settles down, Spider-Man explains how all this occured. It is unclear whether this was at the beginning of Secret Wars I (attracting him to our universe for the first time) or at the beginning of Secret Wars II (attracting him to come to Earth). Doctor Doom, however, did not help matters. Madame Web comments on how Spider-Man has already led the heros into battle, and the Beyonder agrees that this is a good start, but he decides to see how everything ends. Since he was still somewhat naive, and often intentionally limited his awareness of the world in order to experience things more like a true human would, they were able to draw him into their tenement, telling him that they could provide him with true happiness through their drug. Kosmos takes on a female form and is tutored by Kubik, touring the universe with him. Within his universe the Beyonder was complete; indeed he was all of his reality. This, obviously, did not work, and the diners got in a shouting match with him, ultimately punching him in the face, at which point Cage stepped in and beat them up. Demons from Limbo attacked. However, the Beyonder had ulterior motives for wanting this power. Because of this, Strange decided to let him out of the illusion. It is unclear whether Black Bolt did or did not remember the Beyonder. So Doom now asked the Beyonder to restore his memories. Unable to control and trust himself enough to battle the heroes on his own, he gave Klaw enough power to "blacken ten thousand suns." The Beyonder intentionally limited his power to that of a "normal" super hero, and enjoyed the complexity and pressure of battle. The others were finally able to convince Magik that the Beyonder's gift wasn't right, that it took away their individuality and free thought. In Kosmos' 'Maker' incarnation, she was stated as capable of reversing The Crunch itself, essentially collapsing the entire universe. Remains to be seen. And yet Doom remained Doom, and his will was indomitable. The Molecule Man, however, convinced the Beyonder that existence was meaningless without death, and so the Beyonder brought Death back into existence by using his power to kill the reporter Dave, who willingly sacrificed his life. It can directly absorb energy such as Cyclops' optic blasts or even the entire energy of a sun. Who can measure the advantages that would result if the magnificent abilities of these women could be devoted to the needs of government, society and home, instead of being consumed in the struggle to obtain their birthright of individual freedom? They first came to the attention of Earthlings when they commissioned the alien Nuwali race to create the Savage Land as part of their study of evolution. After observing humans, and ultimately interacting with them, the Beyonder still did not feel fulfilled. He increased the Thing's power a hundredfold, then had him go attack the Beyonder, which would hopefully keep him in one place. The Beyonder then says he will introduce evil to the planet; he teleports Doctor Octopus, Alistar Smythe, the Lizard, the Red Skull, and Doctor Victor Von Doom to this planet. He followed the path to power logically, and decided to simply take over all the life on Earth (except the Molecule Man, whom he called a "special case," but said he could take care of him later if necessary). This edit will also create new pages on Comic Vine for: Until you earn 1000 points all your submissions need to be vetted by other Living in a self imposed exile for centuries, Druig led his secret . Owen Reece saw a newspaper story about his new approach, and started to get nervous. [4][12] While still a child,[3] the older Beyonders began their grand experiment where they transformed Owen Reece into the Molecule Man;[2] this "accident" poked a hole into the Beyonder's universe.
