Originally posted by Mr MasterI've been giving this thought, and I realized after some research,
that I'm not sure this applies to Beyonder anymore good friend.That statement by Kubik concerning himself and Kosmos, was made in 1993.
Since then: (1994 - 2007)
Beyonder has depicted some incredible feats,
when he battled MM reality withIN Realities across the Omniverse were warped.
He's proven to operate on a Multiversal scale,
and he's proven to be able to affect reality in a Multi-Universal fashion,
he's even become, it seems, essential to the Multiverse.Even when he limited himself more recently withIN the "Maker"
he was still able to destroy the 616 Universe,
by contracting the "Crunch,"
that's big time.This is why Thanos was afraid if the Beyonder's essence escaped the "Maker's" body,
Thanos said, what he re-called about the Beyonder was,
"unlimited power" ... he actually repeated that.So, has Beyonder been powered up?
Definitely,
but is he above a Celestial?I have no definite idea,
but Beyonder is a powerhouse nonetheless.
Does it concern both of them is the question, or just the Beyonder.
(I'm going to research this further)
Originally posted by guy222'bout time.. I haven't seen Exitar since Sue pwned his ass over a decade ago.
possibly...hearing strong rumors, exitar maybe among the celestials to return
Originally posted by Mr MasterThe aftermath of Beyonder's battle only shows about 10 Celestials [being giving with that figure], that he beat h2h. Still an excellent feat, and I'm sure Beyonder could've wiped out their entire race - but in that particular instance, we only saw a handful of them beaten.
A whole Planet full of them, stomped hand to hand. 😄
Originally posted by UtrigitaAny official statement that would put the CCU beings above the Celestials,
do they even place themselves above them?
It's just based on what Beyonder's accomplished since the 1993 conversation.
Although admittedly, for now, I haven't reached a definitive conclusion yet.
(I'm flipping pages as we speak)
Originally posted by UtrigitaBut I have no idea on how to draw a line between the different incarnation of the Beyonder
they seem to flucurate in power from my point of view...
1. Classic Beyonder = Supreme being
2. (Post-Retcon) a Half-Cube = embodiment of a Universe weaker than Eternity
3. (Full Cube) - Kosmos = Universal warper
4. (2nd-Retcon) - The Maker = Global warper - limited due to mortal form:
(withIN the Maker) Beyonder's essence - potential omnipotent/616 destroyer.
5. (3rd Retcon) Beyonder is back in Illuminati, (and he's not an Inhuman/Mutant btw)
he demonstrated a few pretty impressive feats, but nothing major,
we don't know yet where exactly he is right now on the scale,
but when he makes his next appearance in that arc coming soon,
we'll have definitive answers I'm hoping.

It's a fair assessment,
that could certainly be true, considering the artistic depiction,
so I can agree.
But it could also be,
that the artist just couldn't fit 100-1000 Celestials in one page,
those bad boys are supposed to be 2000 ft. each,
not a simple artistic vision to create on a comic book size page.
Beyonder would have to have been drawn very, very small,
and, I don't think it's even possible, at-least not if Beyonder stayed that size.
I'm not definitively saying there were more Celestials there,
but imo, there could've been more, many more,
for said reasons above, and for other reasons:
Like this:
I forgot it wasn't just a Planet, but a World made of PlanetS.
And it was the Head-Quarters of the Celestials:
A Celestial Host has had up to 7 Celestials (maybe more)
imo, I'd believe that their "Head-Quarters" would have many more Celestials,
then again, maybe not, like I said, I'm speaking in absolutes here.
But on the artist's interpretation being compressed by space in a comic book page,
look at this example.
Like this scan G, a Universe full of Celestials, yet all we see are Seven Celestials:
This is obviously because the artist can't draw millions or billions of Celestials, on panel.
This is another one concerning the Celestials, the Entire Race of Celestials:
Now the artist is doing his best to give us a reference of what that would look like,
but look at how small he has to draw them
in order for us to get an idea of what the Entire Race of Celestials would look like.
Also notice the page is nearly filled up with less than 15 other drawings there.
................................................................................................
There's nothing definitive here,
but I'm just saying,
there's a comprehensive reasoning concerning lack of artistic representation of numbers on panel,
imo.

He's below Eternity (Multiverse)
not Eternity's aspects (single Universes)
but if the Maker was really able to reverse the "Crunch"
man ... I just don't really know then.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding you but are you saying that Eternity's aspects is below the average Celestial?
Didn't surfer manipulate the Crunch?
Originally posted by UtrigitaMaybe I'm misunderstanding you

616 Eternity is above the 616 Celestials.
This is why it's possible, that Beyonder being below Celestials was retconned.
Originally posted by UtrigitaDidn't surfer manipulate the Crunch?
So let me get this straight
616 eternity>616 Celestials>Beyonder>Aspect Eternity>alternate Celestials?
Is that correctly understood when put together with you above post?
What puzzles me however is that the Celestials appear to be more ore less the same when they appear on the different planes of reality, The scan from Nova with the Celestial head that leads to everywhere, and Thor entry into Exitar.
Maybe not.
hey mr. master, i was in the belief that the celestials served the real eternity and like him can get M-bodies for each of their race in any and all universes, becasue (not sure which issue) it has been stated that celestials can be in multiple places simultaneously.
like i said before, arishem the judge has to judge over millions of planets at the same time.
it takes upwards to a millennium to judge a planet and in one universe there are millions of planets under his jurisdiction most likely needing judgment durring overlapping time periods.

Celestials range in power btw,
so it may concern only some of them.
Feat wise?
Beyonder's done more,
but that means little to me when it concerns the Celestials or Galactus,
because neither of them (due to character purpose)
is going to destroy realities, or re-arrange them without a dire reason,
which seldom if ever is the case.
In fact,
it's in the interest of the Celestials and Galactus for Reality to endure in balanced consonance.

In other words,
Arishem was judging two planets withIN the same Universal continuum.
There's no proof that Celestials' omnipresence in one universe ranges across separate realities.
