it's a shame because I enjoy cosmic tales as a genre but it seems authors are going waaaaay too far these days in trying to "up the power to 11" - the Beyonders even killed Living Tribunal (which is basically Marvel's "God" figure).

in contrast I find Mad Jaspers quite a delightful villain despite him being godlike, because (ironically) despite his infinite power he's written into a story that doesn't derail itself and thus we see he's absurdly powerful but still able to be stopped. I knew you were going say something like that. yeah at first i thoght The Beyonder was ength but The Beyonders went crazy by killing preety much all the powerful cosmic beings in Marvel
