The only indication that the Gems were gone was after the battle was over. Which means he burnt the Infinity Gems up, and almost all of Beyonder's power in that fight.

Which means the Celestials were written like absolute forces in that book.

That's exactly how Celestials should always be written, imo.

...Probably the best What If ever, btw.

Yeah, turns out the guy has never written Doom again. Shame considering he put a tremendous effort into the history of him for that What-If.

A lot of Sonic, and Emma Frost though...

Actually you brought up "alternate Beyonders" being = to Pre-Retcon levels.
I was simply noting how powerful even a silly Alternate was.

Nice deflection though.

Still, way to miss the point likewise.
I never said there was a pre-retcon Beyonder running around.
In fact,
[b]I clearly just said
Beyonder doesn't have to be at classic levels to be all powerful.

LOL indeed, indeed!

I never dismissed anything concerning LT > Beyonder.

In fact, I replied to Galan and said " I THINK that's an Alternate"

Pay attention son.

And yur not showing me anything that tells me Beyonder is an Inhuman/Mutant.

... sure, sure? More like ... What the heck is this supposed to prove?

On Panel,
Doom/FF, travelled through the "Cross Roads of Infinity"
to reach Beyonder's Universe
:

You do know what the "Cross Roads" are?
It's a major infinite Nexus that leads to the infinite Universes, Not pockets.

Let me know if you need scans.

Anyway, Doom and Co. pass by many Universes to reach
Beyonder's which is at the edge. Here are a few UniverseS depicted:

"Before us lies our final Universe" (Not pocket)

---------------------------------

It's no different in appearance to 616,
heck they thought they entered 616:

"Our own Universe" (Not pocket)

"Anybody else feel the Universe blink?" (Not pocket)

"You feel the Universe shift, because the Universe is all me" (Not pocket)

---------------------------------

LOL, even Owen Reece lets it be known that he himself is Infinite!

Also, when Beyonder himself claims he is Infinite, no one says otherwise:

Don't play yurself, I gave you the link before.

That aside, still looking for any on panel existence of any kind that
substantiates Beyonder being an Inhuman/Mutant.

Actually Paul Tobin wrote the Spiderman-Secret Wars mini. Nice try.

Jim Shootter had absolutely nothing to do with this re-telling.

So, Shooter's been put aside, and this so-called "portrayal" is laughable.
That's No portrayal, that's Thor (Roy Thomas) talking shit
about what HE thinks concerning these beings.

"Portrayal?" ... Beyonder didn't even appear in that issue or had anything to do with it. [/B]

what did i deflect, exactly?

you clearly said that Beyonder was retconned to his old-self in the 2006 handbooks, and you never noticed........so yeah. And that's what i responded to.

you're really jumping around with your stances. You say that Beyonder was returned to his classic levels through the handbooks (which means you're saying that beyonder is still > LT), yet now you're apparently not denying that LT > Beyonder. So you'll have to take your pick.

so much.....irrelevant scans. First off, a pocket universe is referred to as simply "universe".

Heroes reborn the return #1/ fantastic four #600. two of franklin's pocket universes are simply referred to as "universe" (not pockets):

http://i.imgur.com/45zFgbJ.jpg?1
http://i.imgur.com/5IfuRD1.jpg?1

i have many other examples.

concerning your FF 319 irrelevant scans. Beyonder was delusional the whole issue, Owen tells him that the beyonder THINKS he's above LT and eternity when in reality, he's not:

http://i.imgur.com/sZNUrWO.jpg?1

And that's how he acts, as if he's above everyone,
And that's pretty much clear throughout the issue, simplest example was when he claimed that no one can stop him, after which Kubik defeated him rather easily.

The kubik scan was meant to show that his universe is not infinite, like his beyond realm was originally shown to be -- infinitely bigger than the entire mainstream multiverse.

In regards to the crossroads, yes i know what it is, still don't see why it couldn't lead to pocket/smaller universes.

you gave me four different interviews and told me it's in one of them, im not going to search through them; that's your job, i already showed you my evidence, you still haven't. And do you seriously want me to post the new avengers Illuminati vol 2 issue 3 scans? I would gladly post those scans if you acknowledge on panel evidence (which you should) but apparently, your argument is that there isn't a bio or handbooks or anything that references the inhuman mutant on panel retcon, and that was the point of posting the encyclopedia and the handbook. Maybe the encyclopedia and the handbook are a bit ambiguous, but the fact that it does reference the on panel retcon (which was quite clear), should settle it.

It was a mistake, which i fully acknowledge, i wasn't trying anything, it wasn't meant to deceive.
Ok, if you won't take the thor annual example (even though you do choose to believe certain character claims when it suits you, like in Beyonder's case) then how about when Maker was over-powered by Thanos?

That's what a "pre-retcon beyonder running around" would be. (like you said)

Don't come at me again son until you do your home work properly.

See, my scans there clear up the missing detail in your scans. (supported in the handbooks too btw)

Now try and clear up my "irrelevancy" with on panel proof.

I don't care how delusional you say he was.
He embodied that entire Universe, and his comment concerning his "infinity" was
After Kubik stomped him.
And again, even Owen Reece lets it be known that he himself is Infinite!

Must've missed that one son.

Also, Beyonder's Universe was reached via the "Cross-Roads of Infinity,"
which is an infinite Nexus that leads to the infinite UniverseS.
A Dimensional portal/Vortex/or Space-Rift is all that's needed to venture into Pockets.

Meaningless then. Since we all know Beyonder's Infinite Universe was Not at it's
original scale during the retcon issue. We know it was just an infinite universe,
no different than any other infinite universe of the Multiverse.

Kubik's "infinity" was simply greater than Beyonder's at that point, cause B wasn't "whole."

So, Kubik warped an Infinite Universe. Nice.

So nothing of any kind On Panel After Illuminati,
that even suggest (even indirectly) Beyonder is an Inhuman Mutant.

Cool, just wanted to know.

So, the "What If" ... "Hickman's run," and the "Spidey Mini," All published YearS After Illuminati,
all portrayed the Beyonder, (and/or alternates) as the same ol' Beyonder
that came from Beyond, blah, blah, blah. (nothing to do with inhumans/mutants)

Cool, just so they know.

This is gibberish.

That Thor Annual, is a special writer's splash-page, insignificant to the book it's contained in.
I mean, you do realize that wasn't part of the story yes? Beyonder was NOT active in that book,
neither were any of the others presented. It's Not a showing, it's not even a viable
statement since it wasn't made withIN an actual story.
That wasn't even a back-story (which I would've accepted) like many comics have always had.

On the other hand, of course I'll accept On Panel IN-Story statements over that Thor nonsense.
That aside, Thor's words don't relate to reality, that goes for other comments made there as well.

The Maker was insane, it took mortal form, and it's abilities were diminished.

... meh, it was still able to K.O. Thanos one-shot style in their first encounter:

But, like it's known, the Maker made itself severely vulnerable:

Thanos himself confirmed this:

[img=http://s4d2.turboimagehost.com/t/16799455_Maker6.jpg]

*** Make no mistake though, Thanos feared the real Beyonder ever coming out of the Maker.
Thanos decided to keep the Maker's body alive to act as a prison,
the only prison able to hold the true Beyonder (his essence/omnipotence) withIN the Maker:

Thanos states his recollection of the Beyonder:

"Unlimited power ill used. Unlimited Power!"

That's Thanos talking, same guy who became "God" 3 times prior. (CCU/IG/HOTI)

You can stop being hostile now, just because i disagree with you and called your scans for what they truly are, is no reason to get upset and start getting hostile.

Let me ask you then: Do you believe that Beyonder, currently, is at pre reton power-levels?

yeah, everyone knows, yet until a day ago you never noticed that Beyonder was supposedly retconned back into his old-self.

Im not attempting to make you look confused. but anyway, we'll see what happens after you answer my question whether you consider current beyonder at pre retcon power levels or not.

I know from where your scans are (fantastic four #319), but let's face it, they don't prove anything.

That doesn't hurt at all, actually, because either you didn't comprehend my post or you're just.....posting more irrelevant scans.......you do realize that im not denying that what Franklin created was a pocket, right? what i was saying, is that despite being a pocket universe, it was referred to simply as "universe". Which means that even though Beyonder's pocket universe is called "universe" on panel, it doesn't take away from the fact that it is still a pocket universe.

Beyonder declaring that he's infinite was exactly 1 page before Owen explained to him that he's delusional, here are the 2 consecutive scans.

http://i.imgur.com/fr6m2ZS.jpg
http://i.imgur.com/FsX1GFQ.jpg

........This pretty much tells us that Beyonder's own words should not be taken seriously at all. And that's what The '89 updated handbook in Beyonders' entry tells us: that Beyonder is not the omnipotent being he BELIEVED HIMSELF TO BE:

http://i.imgur.com/LxWL7Lc.jpg?1

So he believed himself to be omnipotent (like Owen said, he thought he was > LT and Eternity), in other words, he was delusional until Owen explained to him his true origins. All your scans take place before that moment.

The Owen statement is a hyperbole, simply. Because:

I already provided evidence that it was a pocket reality, and there's more

2011 History of the marvel universe: Beyonder's powers returned to his POCKET REALM (see the last part, sometimes i have problems editing certain scans):

http://i.imgur.com/2D80HCc.jpg

Maker's bio - 2005: a REALM which he acted as god.

http://i.imgur.com/Jp8EqUr.jpg?1

that, and along with the master edition handbook, which i already posted says that it's a pocket universe

http://i.imgur.com/IXTcUPn.jpg?1

Keep ignoring the evidence, though 👆

Yes, Kubik's power was "infinite", and since he was >>> Beyonder at that point, this proves that Beyonder's universe (which he embodied) was NOT infinite. If Kubik had "trans-infinite" power, then id understand. However, that was not the case.

You just said it yourself: the ON PANEL retcon.

It's not my problem that you are disregarding on panel evidence.

Bringing up alternate versions is pointless, Hickman's 4 alternate versions do not tell us the specific origins of those beyonders. The what if....is a secret wars what if so it can be expected of them to follow what it was originally portrayed to be. Which is why doom says (exactly like in the very 1st page of Secret Wars 1 #11) that he is the mightiest being in this or any other universe (which should include 616) and thus what doom is saying, is that this Alt. Beyonder's power is greater than the 616 version. Same thing goes to the spiderman mini, everything Secret Wars-related will still be portrayed as it originally was, because it was never retconned. However, what im arguing here, is that current Beyonder's "average" isn't at pre reton power levels.

Your only hope to convince us, is if you link me to that interview, which you still haven't. Something tells me if it did exist, you would have posted the link by now.

And at that instance, Maker took Thanos by surprise, he wasn't prepared to defend himself. The very next issue, When they confront each other face to face, Thanos clearly over-powers her. And without much trouble, too:

http://i.imgur.com/6t41178.jpg

Maker was "vulnerable" in the sense that she was mortal, meaning she was able to be killed unlike Beyoner in the Kosmos form. Its power was diminished but not by much

After Maker died, nothing was "unleashed on the universe", though.

i know about that "unlimited power" statement, it's also confirmed in the next issue's recap. My point is that current Beyonder is not pre-retcon-level unlimited power.....which should be obvious.

Also that scan, may as well be an outright lie, considering that it doesn't fit in the continuity well. And Thanos never even met the Beyonder.

I'll cease from calling it the way I see it, but I will use the 'respectful' terminology you've been using to describe contents of my posts. ("irrelevant"😉

"Irrelevant" like some ironic sanctimonious drivel.

More circles forming, therefore "irrelevant" ...

If you'd been paying attention you would notice I always said in the Bios:

Like Here: (page 2)

Originally posted by Mr Master

Imo, it's either the Bio overlooks Beyonder's limitations,
because in a couple of bios including Eternity's bio
Beyonder's the poster child as a reference to what can threaten Eternity itself.

Or, Beyonder is a special case, and is being considered an all powerful being in bios,
[/B]


I even said bios are nutty on this one. ((page 2)

Also like Here: (page 3)

Originally posted by Mr Master
I think that was an alternate Beyonder.

Also my friends, if we're going to revolve Death and Beyonder's connection via [b]bios,
then we must also accept
Eternity's bio of the same year. (2006)


Or like Here: (page 3)
Originally posted by Mr Master

2006 handbooks coupled with the 2007-2009' sets,
speak directly and refer to Beyonder's historical events without guessing room.

tbh, it's a convoluted mess, cause it seems they're addressing
the Beyonder as if he were in his classic levels, or at-least an
all powerful being
.


And by (page 4) I had to get technical with you cause you kept bringing this up:
Originally posted by Mr Master

Beyonder doesn't have to be at classic levels to be All Powerful
:

*** In fact, the ONLY reason I entertained all this bio feedback is
because others were subjecting Death to be below a half Cube
being based on her destruction via the bios.
Which is why I was trying to point out how Eternity's and the Living Tribunal's bios ALSO
have Beyonder seemingly above them as it recounts major events where Eternity tried
to attack Beyonder by smooching on some of Beyonder's power,
and how the LT could not stop Beyonder from killing Death.

I was actually trying to highlight the mess here, and why the Death account has to be looked at differently.
(I even suggested how it should be perceived imo)

So ...

In fact,
it was reached via the "Cross Roads of Infinity" which leads to the infinite universeS.

Yes, we know you provided (handbooks/encyclopidias) to dismiss On Panel Proof.

Oh, and lol at throwing in the Makers's file and twisting the text into Pocket.

But anyway, seriously: On Panel >>> handbooks/encyclopidias/websites.

When you find that ON PANEL scan that defines Beyonder's INFINITE Universe
as anything other, come back.

Oh, and for the record,

power.....which should be obvious.
Also that scan, may as well be an outright lie, considering that it doesn't fit in the
continuity well. And Thanos never even met the Beyonder.


Retcon to the retcon, to the retcon, no one knows for sure what the exact story is.

Yet, still no on panel proof that substantiates the Beyonder being an Inhuman/Mutant
except for what happened in that one book, Illuminati.
Now,
it's not like Beyonder's origin as an "Inhuman/Mutant" was illustrated/depicted as an occurrence in Illuminati,
No,
it's "literally based on a suspicious mindflash that Professor X receives,
and Blackbolt is unable to confirm it."
It makes No sense, and the scene is vague/ambiguous to say the least.
Now, is it possible that Beyonder being an Inhuman/Mutant will be cemented as fact?
Sure it's possible,
Bendis has a lot of pull in Marvel and is allowed wiggle room even more than most.
It may be him via a statement or whatever, or another writer following up Bendis comedy.
Then it becomes fact.
But is this a fact Now based on the info thus far?

That's a definite No!

---------------------------------------------------------------

We all know Thanos k.o'd the Maker though that was not the point of the post.
(It was pointless for me too to post that)
Although you brought that up anyway, asking, what happened there when Thanos beat the Maker:
I explained what we've all known for Years: Thanos beat a vulnerable/weakened Maker:

End of story. No need to try and figure out for me the Maker's power level friend.
The Maker's power level obviously fell beneath Thanos' cause he stomped her, simple.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Also,
you can continue without me concerning Beyonder being "pre-retcon levels" or not,
cause you didn't get that from me. So, basically that's "irrelevant" to me,

I never made a clear/final claim like that. (especially not involving anything on panel)

But still, Thanos's recollection of Beyonder is right on point:

"In that moment I gained the powers ...

I was Everywhere ... and Everything ... and Everyone ...

In that moment, which is this moment. I remade all of creation."

----------------------------------------

"The power I now possess reaches into the Past, the Future, All Time and Space"

On Panel > Bios

btw. Off-panel accounts happen all the time, you can't dismiss Thanos' statements.

---------------------------------------------------------------

This depiction may be another "irrelevant" illustrated On Panel hyperbole and lie to you,
even though it's actually happening coupled with statements,
since, handbooks are the new thing. But until it's written off somehow, it's our latest depiction,
substantiating something new of the old?
(sure they'll let us know at some point on panel wut the actual facts are)

But anyway, guess I'm one of those who likes a kettle more than a maker. (as in coffee)
(meaning I'm old-school and still believe on panel > bios)
And I use bios, but they have to adhere to on panel truth.

Don't get me wrong, if not Bendis, if another book rides Bendis' idea, I'll accept it.
Although the continuity horror this causes makes it impossible to understand how its allowed.
It's not only a retcon of the Beyonder's origin, it's a retcon of the entire Secret Wars event.
The Illuminati story tells us Beyonder's SW experience all took place on that asteroid,
and everyone involved was a fake copy of the original, and other stupidities.

It doesn't make sense on so many levels.

There's also the Beyonder bowing, and calling Black Bolt his king....

Beyonder could've been playing around, he was acting like an all powerful kid.
the idea could've been implanted in Xavier and the Beyonder played his role.

Which is probably why Black Bolt doesn't remember this former Inhuman at all:

Even though I just discovered 3 panels that seemingly shows Beyonder
at some point entering the mysts while the Inhuman's watched,
and he looked the same it seems.
He's also smiling devilishly so not sure if its a mental conjuring. (fake memory)

Also, Beyonder was "ordered" by his "king" to leave the universe,
and instead,
Beyonder disobeyed,
came back and went right back to upsetting the natural order of the universe:

Also, Inhuman/Mutant or Cube Being, Bendis had Namor saying:

"Hate dealing with these all-powerful, all-doing, all-seeing things."

And Reed seems to oblige at the thought:

"As do I."

So, Beyonder, regardless, is supposed to be crazy powerful:

======================================

I had already known how bad this retcon destabilizes continuity,
but I found this page which really breaks it down thoroughly.

(there's more perfect reasoning in the page, I summarized some of it)

http://www.supermegamonkey.net/chronocomic/entries/new_avengers_illuminati_3.shtml

"My take on this, in order to make it as harmless as possible, is to assume
that it takes place during Secret Wars II, after a time when the Beyonder has
removed everyone's memories that he existed (so that Mr. Fantastic and Xavier
can react to seeing him for the first time since Secret Wars I even though by
the time depicted in this issue they had both already encountered him). And all
the stuff with the Beyonder as a mutant Inhuman is just the Beyonder's way of
experimenting with the Illuminati. The scene on the asteroid is just the
Beyonder replaying some scenes that were of particular interest or were
difficult for him to grok or whatever. And just to clean things up, we'll assume
that the Beyonder resets the Illuminati's memories back to whatever they were
prior to this issue. This interpretation pretty much makes this issue pointless,
but i don't really know what else to do with it.

For what it's worth, my Quality Historical Significance ratings are even more
random than usual. As i mentioned, i actually like Cheung's art and the
character interactions in this issue, but that can't possibly make up for such a
weird and poorly thought out attempt at a retcon. And based on my
interpretation of events, any Historical Significance for this issue is essentially
negated.

By design, we don't have to take any of the Beyonder's new origin at face
value; it's based entirely upon a suspicious mindflash that Professor X
receives
, and Blackbolt is unable to confirm it

Psh. Bendis/Gillen/Hickman Marvel's Trinity of Morons.

I like this comment from that page Mr. M :
"This series just looks like what's wrong with modern comics. Some modern writer decides that he didnt like some series that most of us had forgotten about. rather than just not refer to it, he goes out and tries to "fix" it by retconning it out of existence. of course, shoddy research results in the story creating more problems than if they had never bothered to begin with."

Now regarding the whole Beyonder retcons. Bendis' story makes no sense because things and events from SW II were referenced by later writers and they had lasting impact on 'real' characters, Kurse was just one example.

Likewise, Beyonder annihilated a multiversal abstract and the greatest powers in Creation were unable to stop him or undo the damage he did. This was shown on panel, confirmed in Handbooks, and "re-shown" on panel by a different writer at a later date. Post Retcon Beyonder and MM's fight was transmultiversal and Kubik straight up stated thatif MM killed the Beyonder it was cause comsological upheaval.

Other things that weren't retconed from SWII, Owen gathering all the free energy in the MULTIVERSE to reinforce his dome and Beyonder EFFORTLESSLY shattering it. Mephisto's plan to kill the Beyonder that involved all the great powers of the multiverse combining their strength through Beyondersbane manned by Eternity.

On panel, the Beyonder's feats sh|t all over even abstracts he's SUPPOSEDLY inferior to.

I declare zopzop as the definitive loser of this debate. Simply because of how much he sucks, and more so because of how much I hate him.

On a sidenote though, post-retcon Beyonder's universe was definitely a pocket realm.
