Chapter 295: Chapter 189 Kamar-Taj 'Enlightenment' (Part 2)_1
The power scheme within the Marvel Universe is quite orderly. Despite some comics occasionally depicting powers that exceed their boundaries or reach their limits, there are generally rules to follow.
A common classification is the scale of the universe, from small to large: Individual Universe, Multiverse, Greater Universe, Omni Universe, and Unique, five tiers.
Most Marvel film audiences' understanding of superheroes falls under the Individual Universe level, such as Spider-Man, Iron Man, Captain America, and so on.
Those who have read some comics might understand the existence of other levels, such as the Five Gods of Creation at the Multiverse level. Of course, the most familiar is Thanos with the Infinity Gauntlet, the ultimate villain of the cinematic universe.
However, even Gauntlet-wielding Thanos only ranks at the Multiverse level, and there are many beings whose powers surpass his.
In the Greater Universe, the most famous is the Goddess of Revenge, who is the true source of the Infinity gems.
The story simply goes that the Goddess of Revenge, feeling bored with living, transformed herself into six gemstones. So, the real culprit of Thanos's snap traces back to the Goddess of Revenge in the Greater Universe.
Above this, in the Omni Universe level, there are two notable beings: the Court of Life, a typical rags-to-riches story, and the well-known Phoenix Force.
The Court of Life was originally created by the Goddess of Revenge but was later killed by a god transcending the Gods. A being named Adam became the new Court of Life, reporting directly to the "big boss" of the entire Marvel Universe, OAA.
The Phoenix Force needs no introduction. The Marvel Universe is never short of Phoenix's praise. However, it's worth noting that the Omni Universe Level Phoenix Force refers to the most complete version of the Phoenix Force. Below it is the White Phoenix of the Crown, which exists at the Multiverse level.
It's important to note: the complete Phoenix Force has never truly appeared in the Marvel Universe. Even the most powerful White Phoenix of the Crown is merely a tiny avatar of the Phoenix Force. Its powers are insignificant compared to the real Phoenix Force.
Above this level, the most famous is the omnipotent and omniscient OAA, who can be regarded as the boss of the Marvel Universe.
These delineations of levels are slightly more complex than they appear. One must also consider their standpoints, behavior logic, origins, and so forth.
For instance, although Spider-Man is at the Individual Universe level, his Spider Totem is at the Multiverse level, and so is the Morlun Family.
From this example, we see that there are differences within the Multiverse level itself. The Morlun Family and the White Phoenix of the Crown are all beings at the Multiverse level, but their powers are vastly different.
You might wonder, how weak can a being at the Multiverse level be?
Yet, in the comics, the Morlun Family does not have any impressive performances. Their so-called power absorption depends more on inhibiting factors, and their opponents are mainly at the Individual Universe level. Their attainment of the Multiverse level is essentially due to the assistance of the Weaver. It's pure nepotism.
Returning to the topic of Dimensional Demon Gods, this term refers to a group inclusive of both the Multiverse and Individual Universe level beings.
Among them, the Lord of the Crimson Dimension, Setorak, is considered a boss-level being at the Multiverse level. Not only does he ignore the effects of the Infinity Gems, but he also chooses whom to beat in his own domain.
Those slightly inferior to him are Dormammu of the Dark Dimension. In the older setup, he was incredibly powerful and was described as a being only second to the old version of the Court of Life, but later his performance became somewhat slack.
Then there are beings with origins in the Cthulhu Mythos like the Eye Demon and the less known but supposedly stronger Zom.
And of course, there's the trinity Emperor Mount Wey, and so on.
There's also Hell Lord Morpheus, Lucifer, Heart of Darkness, and so on who are considered demon gods as well.
These settings may sound confusing and intricate, but they are easy to understand when approached from a different angle.
For example, these demon gods aren't isolated from each other. They recognize and are familiar with each other, forming organizations, and cooperating when faced with trouble and crises. After their collaboration, they have also split up.
Doesn't this sound familiar?
Right, they're like an enlarged evil version of a superhero team. They understand and are familiar with each other, living in different areas but occasionally conversing. They form temporary combat committees when faced with issues and fight when there are disagreements.
They also strategize in alliances, leverage, weak over strong, and so on. For example, Morpheus once had doubts and suspected Dormammu wanted to wipe him out, so he called on Hela, Mephisto, Hades, and others to hold a combat meeting to conspire against Dormammu.
Their meetings are no different from the superheroes'. They sit around a table, express their views, then leave in discord, leaving matters unresolved.
In the side story of "Fear Itself," even the Lord of the Crimson Dimension Setorak, the Great Shadow Xeseon, and Eye Demon have joined in the meeting. Everyone made a circular formation and spoke in turn. Finally, Morpheus made a shocking statement, but it didn't accomplish anything.
This shows they have a solid social relationship and their own interests and stands.
