Can a Single Character Kill the Entire DC and Marvel Universe?
Can a Single Character Kill the Entire DC and Marvel Universe?
Introduction
In the vast and complex multiverses of DC and Marvel, there have been numerous debates and discussions about the power of individual characters. The question often comes up: Could a single character have the power to destroy not just a single universe, but the entire DC and Marvel multiverse? In this article, we explore some of the most powerful characters with the potential to do just that, along with a unique perspective from two unlikely friends, The Brothers Yin and Yang.
Brothers Yin and Yang: Peacemakers or Destroyers?
While the universes of DC and Marvel may seem locked in eternal conflict, two unique entities, The Brothers Yin and Yang, could potentially be the key to their harmony—or destruction. Anthropomorphic personifications of both the DC and Marvel universes, they came close to annihilating each other due to their inherent opposites but were eventually swayed by the experiences of Batman and Captain America. Realizing the devastation that their constant rivalry could bring, the brothers decided to become friends, setting aside their differences for the greater good.
The Most Dangerous Superheroes
Let's take a closer look at some of the most powerful characters in the DC and Marvel universes and their potential to destroy an entire multiverse. We'll also see how a somewhat unconventional choice could top them all.
1. Legion
In the Marvel universe, Legion has incredible control over his reality-bending powers. With the right mental control, he could theoretically manipulate reality on a cosmic scale, making him a potential candidate to destroy the entire multiverse.
2. Thanos
Thanos has proven his worth as a multiverse killer with the Infinity Gauntlet. Dropping a single "snap" could obliterate half of the universe. While doing it to the whole multiverse would be a massive undertaking, his capacity for destruction is unquestionable.
3. Doomsday
Doomsday from the DC universe, while formidable, may not be able to single-handedly destroy the entire multiverse even with the combined efforts of all superheroes. His invulnerability and sheer strength could shield him from almost any attack, but taking down the entire multiverse would be a monumental task.
4. Amazo
Amazo excels at copying and utilizing the abilities of others. He might require significant effort to handle multiple universes, but with enough time and resources, even Amazo could potentially conquer the multiverse.
Deadpool: The Meta-Fiction Destroyer
Perhaps the most controversial and unconventional choice among these is Deadpool. Once, Deadpool killed the entire Marvel Universe for fun. Given his unmatched ingenuity and ability to adapt, he could certainly take on the challenge of destroying the DC multiverse as well.
Reality Warpers: The Ultimate Destroyers
Some characters have the power to warp reality itself, making them the most potent destroyers in the multiverse. Here are a few examples:
MCU Dr. Strange: With the Time Stone, Dr. Strange could travel back to the Big Bang and reset the universe. He could also theoretically do so universe by universe, making him a terrifying force.
The Scarlet Witch, Franklin Richards, Superman Prime 1 Million, Mr. Mxyzptlk, Mr. Kltpzyxm, and Yz: These reality-warping beings have the power to manipulate the very fabric of reality, making them potential candidates for multiverse destruction.
Thanos with Gauntlet and Infinity Gems, and Rogue after touching any of the above or in the case if those that need an item touch the item: Even with these items, Thanos and his Infinity Gems, or Rogue after touching one of these entities, could carry out their wishes with the power to warp reality.
Beyonder: This character is considered the second most powerful in the Marvel universe, more powerful than The Living Tribunal and the entire universe combined. The Beyonder can easily achieve multiverse-wide destruction, making him a formidable contender.
The Living Tribunal: Answering only to the Beyonders, The Living Tribunal can nullify the effects of the Infinity Gauntlet. However, this power is not held by anyone else, making the Beyonder a more likely choice for complete multiverse destruction.
Protege, The Living Tribunal, and Thanos with Gauntlet and Gems: Each of these characters can replicate the powers of others and even nullify the effects of the Infinity Gauntlet, making them potential multiverse annihilators in their own right.
Final Thought
While all these characters are capable of immense destruction, the potential for multiverse-wide devastation lies heavily with the Beyonder, due to his unparalleled power and destructive capabilities. However, it's worth noting that the actions of other powerful characters such as the Protagonists (Protege) and even thanos with infinities gems, with the right circumstances, can also contribute to the same end.
But what about the ultimate decider? In a conversation with two unlikely friends, The Brothers Yin and Yang, they agreed that the Beyonder would take the top spot. Despite their cosmic power, the Beyonder is a character of endless potential and destructive capability.
