"I am Uatu… the Watcher! For countless centuries, I have observed the Earth, taking great interest in the rise of superhumans on the planet. While these beings have existed since the dawn of mankind itself, at no point has their influence on the world and the universe beyond been greater than now. Chance acts and isolated incidents have caused a chain reaction that grows deadlier with each passing event.
Millions upon millions of years ago, when the universe was still young and new, godlike beings with unfathomable powers walked the cosmos long before life itself had been introduced into existence. These cosmic entities, known as Celestials, visited countless galaxies while experimenting on primitive and undeveloped organisms of all shapes and sizes. Some species survived their genetic tampering, while others failed. The exact objective as to why these Celestials conducted these actions is still unknown, but their actions of long ago still have consequences to this very day. And of all the planets within all the solar systems affected by the Celestial’s research and testing, no other world has been affected more than planet Earth.
Today, it’s been over a decade and a half since the very beginning of the now daily strange and unusual happenings commenced within the history of the planet. Humans endowed with superhuman abilities. These superheroes, unknown to the mass population of the world, are the direct results of the cosmic beings’ influence. Each and every one of them, although linked through their ancestor’s genetic tampering, is unique and do experience their newfound superhuman traits under various and numerous circumstances. Some through birth. Some through science. Some through magic. Others through accidents. Regardless of how they were acquired or what they are, the people of the planet now revere them as heroes while others fear them as villains. For years their epic and colossal conflicts amongst each other have remained constant. The world has seen their heroes and villains rise and fall but never cease to be. Yet their influence on their home was not restricted to their planet as they would traverse the galaxy after galaxy to find they were not alone. The universe would never be the same again.
This is just one possibility of what is to be within the multiverse of thousands of separate universes. Yet this universe, above all, remains the most prominent of the rest. Named only, as universe 616..."
