#ComicBytes: 5 most powerful items in the Marvel Universe
What's the story
The Marvel Universe has a host of powerful items of celestial, magical and technological origins that have either been used by heroes or villains.
Over the 80 years of comics, there have been several times that the very existence of the universe was threatened by these objects.
With such cataclysmic powers, it is time to see the most powerful items in the Marvel Universe.
Mandarin Rings
If you like it then put a ring on it
The 10 rings assembled by Mandarin have alien origins.
They are Remaker, Influence, Spin, Incandescence, The Liar, Lightning, Zero, Spectral, Nightbringer, and Daimonic. They have the souls of dead cosmic warriors in them, and the wearer of the rings are influenced by their sentience.
With powers like mind control, altering reality, fire and laser blasts, the rings are extremely formidable items, individually or together.
Cosmic Cube
The cube that rocked the cosmos
The cosmic cube was first introduced in 'Tales of Suspense'.
The incredibly strong item has the power to alter history, reality and is only limited by the user's thought. Its power almost matches the Infinity Gauntlet.
To put the cube's power in context, it has been used by the Red Skull to create a new reality and by Black Panther to create new worlds.
Infinity Gauntlet
The deadliest assembled weapon
The Infinity Gauntlet is harmless but when combined with the Infinity Stones- mind, power, soul, space, time and reality, it gives the wielder Godlike powers of omnipresence, omnipotence, and omniscience.
The most notable instance of the Gauntlet was when Thanos used it to almost destroy the universe as seen in comics and the recent 'Infinity War' film.
It is Marvel's most infamous weapon.
Ultimate Nullifier
The power of being and nothingness
The Ultimate Nullifier is one of the most terrifying items in the Marvel Universe and is dangerous to the user as well. It requires immense willpower and concentration to wield, else it might destroy the user as well.
The item's power includes eliminating anything and anyone, even abstract concepts like multiple timelines.
The eliminating power scared away Galactus, one of Marvel's strongest beings.
Heart of the Universe
Marvel's heart will go on
While all items on this list are potentially 'Godlike', none of them match the Heart of the Universe.
It has infinite power and the user can become more powerful than One Above All, who is the God of Marvel.
Notably, this item was crafted by Marvel's Supreme Being to fix the imbalance in Marvel's universe. The all-powerful item rarely appears in mainstream comics.
