      Devil’s advocate, “above all” needs to be clarified. Above all *KNOWN* existence? Or above all *UNKNOWN* existence? If the marvel uni/multiverse is rapidly expanding into infinite, there’s nothing to say there can’t be the possibility for something to come along to be much stronger than TOAA. Records are broken every day, and there’s no reason to believe the power scaling can’t be topped by something else

She didn't really die when she fell of the cliff. Yes you saw the body but it was a super secret double and they planned the whole thing in advance! Never mind it's been a decade and three different writers since then. Marvel planned it from the beginning!

    At no point in Defenders #5 did Al Ewing say The Enigma was more powerful than the one above all.
    The crown above all things moniker just meant that it existed outside time and space (Just like the other realms past the foreshore) and pointed to the fact that the Enigma was the original Nathaniel Essex i.e the King sinister.
    He's even stated to be Enternity's enemy, not TOAA's.

      @@blackmage665 Though there are indeed powerscaling sweaties that wank off to this shit, I do mostly agree with you.
      It used to be a clear cut power set and tier that gave logic to the comics and it made us understood how logic worked on a cosmic scale. It also served well to truly hone in on how grave or dire a situation is when something of a cosmic level comes through.
      Like Galactus used to be the high ceiling, and nothing went past the Phoenix or the other Abstracts. Lately though, everyone dipshit street level character, or some obscurely powerful herald level dude just gets a random powerup to rewrite the world willy nilly because it's "cool."
      It's getting dumb and it's why it's extremely hard to follow comics. There needs to be an overarching authority that keeps this stuff in check for a sensible narrative overall, but that won't happen these days.

However the dominion seems to be limited by the fact that it originates from time. Its origin is a single thread that can be pulled in such a way that it unravels.

      in a way it can work but there is just 1 problem,if the one above all is omnipresent it sees all meaning it would stop dominion before it can become to strong unless it knows that dominon is no treath from the one above all.
      and then there is another thing that makes it impossible for dominion to be stronger and that simple fact is how can something be stronger then an eternal beeing that has made everything,the one above all is one with everything so the dominion trying to destroy it would mean destroying itself because without the one above all the marvel universe cant exist.

    I dont see how oblivion is above TOAA when he follows the commands of the Living tribunal who by default answers to TOAA, Marvel saying TOAA isn't the most powerful is just more bad writing and further destroying a once understandable hierarchy, its almost as bad as the beyonder retcons.

    • @alanguages

      I agree. Oblivion is part of the order of abstract concepts. He still has his limits which he is allowed to what he can and cannot do. Otherwise he would just have destroyed the Marvel universe already by himself, without using avatars. Oblivion still seems to need approval on what he is able to get away with.

      Just like the 1st Firmament created the Aspirants/Celestials. The Celestials beat the 1st Firmament and Aspirants. Then the Celestials created the Beyonders, who happen to beat all cosmic entities including the Celestials themselves, Eternity, Infinity and Living Tribunal.
      Afterwards it was revealed the Celestials created the Lost One who the Beyonders took his power to become as powerful as they were to begin with. At that rate, I though the Celestials were going to be the creators of the One Above All and every other cosmic entity.@@cheeseburgerfreddy6350

Seems to me Marvel has a bunch of writers having a pissing contest. Hulks writer has the Mother of Horrors we have this crown and Oblivion. Which writer decides what all powerful being is the true all powerful?

If Dominion went into the white hot room to gain all this powers, which is basically the Phoenix itself, it means Phoenix "gave" power to Dominion, it's that simple. Even in Defenders beyond, it was established that nothing could ever defeat the Phoenix in white hot room. The Phoenix Force is basically the marvel itself more or less.

What I mean is imagine Beast goes on and does some shady and villainous stuff like experimenting on people and killing humans for Mutant kind and whatnot, and Mr. Sinister joins the X-Men and other Mutants like how he is working with Charles Xavior and what not, so Beast is doing the villainous stuff and Mr. Sinister helps the heroes.
