Respect Korvac, the clockwork god!
Welcome to the Korvac Respect thread
Who is this Korvac?
Korvac: The clockwork god, the enemy... One of the most epic enemies of the Avengers, and not very well known in this forums... Lets make something about that shall we?
This character has a history full of retcons, alternate realities, time-travel and resurrections. So he is mostly your everyday marvel villain, only this one, works in a cosmic scale. I would argue that to fully understand the deal with Korvac you have to look at his several versions independently, and draw your conclusions, I'll provide the scans here, explain them and present the character to the best of my abilities, hopefully in a way that it will make simple to all of you to look into browse his feats.
When pertinent, I will explain why I put feats together even if they are not from the exact same version of Korvac.
I'm going to divide this thread in the following parts:
I:- Korvac Battles.
- Battle feats in Korvac base form.
- Battle feats in Alternate base form.
II:- Michael Battles.
-Battle feats in Michael form.
- Battle feats of the Ancestors.
III:- Power level.
-Power feats in Michael form.
IV:- Other Powers.
-Miscellaneous Powers.
V:- Tech.
-Korvac's machines.
VI:- Alternate reality.
- Alternate Michael battle feats (What If #32)
- Alternate Michael miscellaneous feats.
VII:- Other versions.
- Other Korvacs.

Before going into the feats lets begin with some story:
"Michael Korvac was a computer technician born on the Blue Area of the Moon of an alternate Earth in the year 2997. Due to events surrounding his birth, Michael's father was killed and he was raised by his mother to have a hateful and vengeful attitude. When the Sol System and its colonies were conquered by the alien Brotherhood of Badoon,Korvac became a collaborator and traitor to the human race. Caught asleep at a machine while working, the Badoon grafted Korvac's upper body to a machine, effectively making him a cyborg."
That's what I'm calling his "base form".
"Korvac discovers the space station of the cosmic entity Galactus. Attempting to download the knowledge of Galactus from the station into his own system, Korvac is imbued with the Power Cosmic and becomes a god-like being. Korvac then recreates himself as a perfect humanoid form, and posing as a human called Michael, travels to Earth with the intent of reshaping it into a utopia."
That's what I'm calling the Michael form, when he takes part in the well known Korvac Saga.
This Korvac still prevailed into the less known storyline "Korvac Quest", where his powers passed into several hosts before being passed to Korvac again and later returned to Galactus. From the different hosts that used his power, I have the "ancestors feats", those ones however, are part of the same powers Korvac had during the Korvac saga, so they aren't really from a different character.
There are two what ifs in which Korvac appeared -one of them, the very well known What if #32 where he takes over the world-, and also two different versions of Korvac that appeared later. The two versions are to be mentioned -they appear in "canon continuity", but they are difficult to gauge compared with the base form and the Michael form that are more documented.
I post a little bio for Korvac:
