History

Celestial War[]

Gammenon was one of the Celestials who rebelled against the Aspirants and First Firmament. They shattered the First Cosmos into the Second Cosmos, the first Multiverse, and later created the Omegas as servitors.[1]

The Celestials were split across the Multiverse. Their counterparts are interconnected aspects of themselves and not separate beings.[2] Thus, the Gammenon of Earth-616 is one aspect of the true Gammenon.

Earth-616[]

Gammenon is one of the Celestials, and is sent out to find various plant, animal and humanoid specimens for experimentation. He reports to Jemiah and often travels with Eson. Gammenon is the Celestials' data collector and gatherer of specimens.[citation needed]

Gammenon was among the First Celestial Host that visited Earth approximately one million years ago. He captured man-ape specimens which became Earth's first Deviants and Eternals.[3][4]

As part of the Fourth Celestial Host, Gammenon landed on Earth, where he was sighted by Ajak and Dr. Daniel Damian.[5] Gammenon captured S.H.I.E.L.D. agents Tyler, Parks, and Stevenson, and reduced them to atoms.[6] Gammenon allowed Ajak to temporarily restore the captured S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.[citation needed]

Gammenon also encountered Thor, and captured an airliner full of passengers, including Donald Blake, S.H.I.E.L.D. agent Johnson, and Ereshkigal. Gammenon witnessed the transformation of Tyrannus by the Deviants' Flame of Life and his dissipation into space.[7] Gammenon stood assembled with nine of the other members of the Fourth Host in Peru, and participated in the repulsion of the attack by the Destroyer, the Uni-Mind, and Thor. He then left Earth with the other Celestials.[8]

Gammenon was one of the Celestials allegedly encountered by the Beyonder during the second Secret War.[9]

Gammenon was the Celestial tasked with keeping an eye on an unnamed planet to judge its society's worthiness. Along with the other Celestials, Gammenon was influenced by the actions of X-Factor into declaring that the planet's societies were fit to continue existing.[10]

Gammenon later witnessed the near-destruction of the universe by a black hole created by Maelstrom.[11]

Multiverse[]

Quote1 Unlike you and me, who have separate aspects in each universe, the Celestials exist as aspects of one being linked across the Multiverse simultaneously. Quote2
Dark Beast[src]

The Celestials exist across the Multiverse simultaneously. A Celestial's alternate reality selves are actually aspects of the same being.[2] Despite this, their alternate aspects may have very different histories from the ones in the mainstream Marvel Universe.

Earth-4162[]

Gammenon (First Cosmos) from Exiles Vol 1 53 013

Gammenon and Jemiah were Celestials whose eons-long genetic experiment with the Trinarians got ruined when Ego the Living Planet threw them into a black hole. For retribution, the Celestials found Ego guilty and sentanced him to death, but he got away. Gammenon and Jemiah followed him to Earth, whom Ego turned into a living planet like himself. The Earth turned on him and Ego was killed with a little help from Blink of the Exiles. Gammenon and Jemiah then warned Blink of the "Timebreakers,"[12] as the Celestials knew that they were the ones behind the broken realities of the Multiverse that the Exiles were tricked into cleaning up.[13]

Earth-9997[]

Gammenon (First Cosmos) Earth X Vol 1 12

Gammenon is a member of the Celestial race. Having long since evolved past physical bodies, the Celestials reproduced by impregnating a planet with their essence, which in time would gestate into an infant Celestial. To protect the growing fetus, they would genetically modify the people of said world, greatly enhancing their evolutionary potential and imbuing them with a certain level of aggressiveness.[14] One of these impregnated planets was Earth. After the populace of Earth fully mutated prematurely, Gammenon and other Celestials travelled to the world to purge it of all life before they could threaten the infant Celestial.[15] They were met with opposition from Black Bolt on the Moon, Gammenon and the Celestials would kill Black Bolt and then set their sights on Earth.[16]

On Earth, they would be opposed by Namor and an army of sea creatures, Tony Stark in a giant robotic factor and an army of Iron Men robots, and an army of Asgardians led by Loki. This bought the Earth precious moments for the arrival of "Galactus" (actually Franklin Richards) who was called to Earth by Black Bolt before his death. Galactus was able to fight off the Celestials, and Gammenon was one of the Celestials felled in the battle.[17]
