Eson the Searcher

Eson the Searcher is a minor antagonist of the 2014 Marvel film Guardians of the Galaxy. He is a giant Celestial known for destroying a planet with the usage of an Infinity Stone.

Role
When the Guardians paid a visit to the Collector by delivering the Orb (containing the Power Infinity Stone), the Collector explains to the Guardians about the origin of the Infinity Stones. To further prove the point, the Collector shows a footage of Eson the Searcher, explaining that the giant Celestial found the Power Stone and placed it in his staff for his own ambitions of conquest. Eson would later use the power of the Stone to destroy an entire planet civilization to satisfy his own ambitions of taking over the planet. Despite succeeding in taking over the planet for himself, Eson would later lose the Power Stone to several cosmic beings, who later died trying to harness its power, leaving the Stone to be hidden in the planet Morag It is unknown what happened to Eson afterwards.
