Cosmic Entities,[1] or Cosmic Beings,[2][3] are powerful primordial beings. Exalted and enigmatic, they are often the subject of statues erected across the universe, such as at the Gates of Eternity.[4] They are associated with the Infinity Stones.[1]
History[]
Death, Entropy, Infinity, and Eternity had their likenesses portrayed on the walls of the Temple Vault on Morag.[1]
In 2014, the Collector explained the history of the Infinity Stones to the Guardians of the Galaxy, and one of the holograms he showed them was of the image from the Temple Vault, showing their likenesses.[5]
In 2023, during the planning of the Time Heist, the Avengers learned about the Cosmic Entities while they were retracing the history of the Infinity Stones.[6] Following the Time Heist which eventually resulted in Loki and Sylvie Laufeydottir freeing timelines of the Multiverse,[7] The Watcher began observing some of the timelines,[8] and later founded the Guardians of the Multiverse to protect the Multiverse from Ultron.[2]
In 2024, Gorr, Thor, and Jane Foster arrived at the Gates of Eternity, where there were statues of Eternity, Infinity, Death, Eon, the One Above All, the Living Tribunal, and The Watcher. Once in Eternity's Realm, a dying Gorr, upon seeing Thor choose love and comfort the dying Foster, changed his intention to wish for the death of all gods and and instead wished for his daughter to be returned to life. Eternity complied and brought Love back while seemingly empowering her with his cosmic power, as her reflection in the water displayed her as an outline showing the universe.[4]
Later that year, Doctor Strange and America Chavez traveled the Multiverse and passed through a universe containing statues of the Living Tribunal.[9]
In the Void, a dimension located in the end of the time, there is a head of a statue of the Living Tribunal, that was pruned by the Time Variance Authority.[10]
