Definetely not John Constantine.
High Evolutionary is the absolute best example. The guy Literally, ............LITERALLY! has a machine in his basement that can turn him into a god or cosmic being of the highest order. no hyperbole, or child like exaggeration either.. literally i say! (not to mention the fact that he can take on just about any cosmic or "god" just as he is right now)
Count Nefaria is next in line
next would have to be Absorbing Man. if he werent so damn dumb, he would be the Boss
Cool but I prefer characters that sought out power rather than just being bestowed. The guy who became Captain Marvel just happened to have powers bestowed on him and maybe this is the case with the GLs. I just prefer guys like Promtheus and Dr Fate who I assume actively took a part in gaining their powers.

Norin Radd was just an average human(like) alien before becoming the surfer.
He sort of sought power by making the deal with galactus. am I right. 😎
I dunno from what I can remember big G threatened to eat his world and he offered him self up to be a Herald. So he didnt seek it, it was just circumstance.

The new Captain Marvel is actively taking a part in gaining his powers 😐
Thats why its called "Trials of Shazam"
The most powerful human being in Marvel that went from a normal man,
to a "god" in an instant beyond even Eternity/Infinity/Death and even Oblivion,
is ... Edifice Rex.
This cat gained his power by finding a mysterious globe of energy (its never been defined)
he touched it,
and gained the power to literally fold the entire Marvel Universe back into its Cosmic Egg.
He was never defeated, (he was confronted by the 616 hierarchy)
but he was fooled into not folding Marvel cause he's dumb like a stump,
but he's out there somewhere wandaring reality with all that power. 🙂
