History
The Cosmic Avengers were formed byLoki to stopGamora from destroying the universe. He specifically picked members he deemed uniquely suited to wield aInfinity Stone. After first recruitingEmma Frost, Loki then recruitedMs. Marvel andKang the Conqueror and laterAnt-Man and theHulk. Loki tried to recruitAdam Warlock, but he insisted that they stay in the Soul Stone and fightDevondra who was responsible for corruptingSoul World. So, Emma used telepathy to call for various heroes to help Adam.[2]
The Cosmic Avengers later found duplicates of the Infinity Stones unintentionally created by Gamora when she createdWarp World in the possession of a young version of Gamora. Using their set of Infinity Stones, the Cosmic Avengers left Soul World and confronted Gamora at theQuarry of Creation. They managed to defeat Gamora by taking the Infinity Stones from her, but Loki used his sorcery to take Gamora's set of Infinity Stones and used them to wipe out the Avengers' Infinity Stones, banish Gamora to Soul World, and enter the realm below the Quarry of Creation to learn why was he always destined to lose.[3]
After finding the answer he sought, Loki gave the Infinity Stones back to the Cosmic Avengers. The Avengers then reentered Soul World and rejoined with Adam Warlock. After Hulk used the Space Stone to defeat Devondra, the Cosmic Avengers used the Infinity Stones to restore the universe as well as ensure Warp World remained in existence. They then escaped Soul World with Gamora,Star-Lord,Rocket Raccoon,Groot, andalternate reality versions ofMoondragon andCaptain Marvel whileDrax the Destroyer stayed behind to keep the portal opened. After landing inEgypt, Adam Warlock decided to send Gamora someplace where she could redeem herself and then gave the Infinity Stones sentience so they could determine their own fates so no one else could fight over their power.[4]Paraphernalia
