The Marvel Multiverse has infinite variants of iconic heroes and villains, each with distinctive abilities and strengths. While some have barely noticeable powers, many possess a power so immense that they risk breaking the very fabric of reality.
These variants can break boundaries between universes, mess with time and space, and reshape the cosmos. Continue reading to learn more about these variants and how they risk breaking the Multiverse.
Cosmic Ghost Rider (Earth-TRN666)
Ghost Rider is the spirit of vengeance who causes pain to people who have inflicted it on others. He manipulates hellfire and projects a mystical flaming chain while riding a motorcycle.
In his universe, The Punisher dies with Thanos coming to Earth, and then he signs a deal with Mephisto in hell to become the new Ghost Rider. Further, he makes another deal with Galactus and is offered cosmic power. This helps him use telekinetic powers and travel throughout the cosmos easily.
Old King Phoenix Thor (Earth-14412)
Apart from his godly abilities, Old King Thor has extraordinary strength. He can also control the weather and manipulate energy. Like his father, Odin, he has also inherited the title of All-Father. Old King Thor is a warrior with immense power and wisdom, making him a formidable character.
One thing that separates this Thor variant is his possession of the Phoenix Force. This cosmic entity popularly known for its power and ability to manipulate life, death, and reality is owned by Thor. It makes him extremely powerful as he can easily shape and destroy entire realities.
Doctor Strangefate (Earth-9602)
Charles Xavier, also known as Professor X, was rescued by The Ancient One in the Himalayas. She then takes the already powerful meta-mutant on as a student and teaches him the mysteries of the supernatural world. Xavier soon surpasses her and becomes the Lord Supreme of Order, calling himself the universe's protector.
He wasn't a typical hero as he preferred to stay in the Tower of Strangefate and observe events from that distance. This was done using his powers to manipulate others. He was powerful, could make himself invisible, manipulate time, and travel through dimensions.
Night Hawk (Earth-TRN852)
Night Hawk, a.k.a. Kyle Richmond, is another fascinating character who could be considered a clone of Batman. In the past few years, he has become one of the most dangerous multiverse characters in Marvel comics. This highly intelligent variant is one of the most powerful Marvel characters.
He is a member of Squadron Supreme of America in a world where the Avengers never existed. His powers and abilities include superhuman strength, flight, and enhanced senses.
The Maker (Earth-1610)
While the original Reed Richards is known for his dedication to humanity, The Maker is a twisted version of him with the same mind. He can manipulate his body into different shapes without disrupting the functions of his internal organs.
Driven by personal strategies and distrust in humanity, he took a darker path and became obsessed with power and control. His scientific knowledge is unmatched, allowing this evil Richards to create technology and manipulate reality on a grand scale. His moral compass is completely broken, making him a dangerous and unpredictable threat.
Weapon Omega (Earth-295)
Weapon Omega is a powerful and twisted version of Wolverine. Unlike Wolverine, this variant is a mix of human, mutant, and machine. He was initially part of Magneto's X-Men but parted ways after going on a mission that led to his transformation. Celestial and cosmic entities experimented on him, transforming him into a deadly weapon.
Weapon Omega is an Alpha-Class Mutant with powerful healing and teleportation abilities, acute senses, claws that extend from his wrist, and an indestructible skeleton made from Adamantium. However, one thing that makes him one of the most powerful Marvel variants is his mental state. After his transformation, he is driven by a thirst for power, and his reign is marked by genocide and destruction.
Kang (Earth-6311)
Nathaniel Richards, a.k.a Kang, is a brilliant scientist whose obsession with control took him down the path of temporal domination. He is more than just a villain; he is a complex character who understands time travel deeply.
Among even the most formidable Marvel variants, this Kang stands out. A conqueror of Earth with an empire that extends into the future, his ambitions are cosmic in scale, aiming to eradicate planets, galaxies, and entire timelines. He is a genius military tactician, a master of both armed and unarmed combat, and somehow managed to separate himself from his future counterpart to make himself a distinct identity.
Bloodstorm One (Earth-616)
Lt. Gregory Belial cloned Bloodstorm One using Dracula's DNA in a lab. While he may not be a direct clone, his powers and abilities are similar. These include superhuman strength, speed, stamina, reflexes, etc. Bloodstorm also has fangs and claws, can hypnotise others, and can shape-shift into bats, rats, wolves, and mist.
Bloodstorm is a unique creature stuck between its destructive nature and a desire to return to everyday life. Once Bloodstorm breaks Dracula's mind control, it grants him complete control of all his abilities and vampire powers.
Emperor Doom (Earth-15513)
Emperor Doom from Battlerealm emerged victorious after The Incursion and declared himself the cosmic tyrant. In the Multiversal war, Earth-616 and Earth-1610 collapsed, and all humanity died. This formed a new world, Earth-15513, in which the heroes and villains existed in different forms.
He has mastered time travel, reality manipulation, and several aspects of cosmic power. Emperor Doom's armour is an invincible suit that gives him strength, durability, and energy projection. This Marvel variant has almost limitless potential and influence that can reach far beyond his reality.
The Marvel Multiverse is filled with extraordinary beings, but some variants threaten its existence. Characters like Old King Phoenix Thor and Emperor Doom possess power on a cosmic scale, capable of reshaping reality. While fascinating, these individuals highlight the immense dangers lurking within all worlds.
