Starbrand's power is essentially "Whatever power and power level the plot needs it to be" pre-retcon. Post-retcon it became, "Whatever power level the plot needed it to be"

[@53eric53]

If star brand is so powerful then how was the beyonders able to kill him. Also thanos with the heart of the universe was able to beat the Living Tribunal how is starbrand stronger than that. From what I understand The Living Tribunal was the forth strongest in the Marvel Multiverse.

[@staycool155]

KratosLink he’s not saying starbrand is the most powerful character in comics just that whenever he appears his power fluctuated to fit whatever story he is in and help turn things in his sides favor. Obviously the living tribunal would body him the living tribunal is beaten by very few characters and the heart of the universe made thanos god basically so ofc he would beat him I’m fairly certain thanos would either defeat or give starbrand a hell of a fight without any buffs. Just re read it I think u read the context wrong.

[@kevinnosaurus793]

@@53eric53 dont worry Starband isnt the most powerful being or such thing. Even Doom with Starbrand power still loses to King Thor with Phoenix. Starband is a big boy but theres other big boys who is above him/her.

[@Dualxboxfanboy]

@@53eric53 Well Starbrand is a plot device. For ex: Ereshkigal an deviant woman, went multiversal with the Starbrand and even maked the Living Tribunal fear her, because of the brand. Then this year Starbrand went against Old man Doom Pheonix force and lose. In Hickman Avengers run, Starbrand was captured by Morgana Le Fay and could not escape her trap. In conclusion. Starbrand=plot power device.

[@kingS-sl9wj]

@@53eric53 I suspect it's because the source star brands power is still OF the marvel omniverse. But beyonder is the sum of all things beyond the multiverse (virtually limitless space) so pre retcon beyonder was I think it was either a million or a thousand times more powerful than the sum of all the marvel multiversal. So he simply transcends starbands realm of power.

[@scinnyc]

If Blue Marvel and Sentry are too powerful, than Starbrand definitely is. But all 3 of them deserve much more appearances and character development than they're currently getting.

[@TheTsugnawmi2010]

The MCU could still use Starbrand. To cap him, the MCU would simply say the power itself is limitless but the host, Kevin Connor, is still a teenage boy so his body can't handle it. He _could_ fight off Galactus wielding the Heart of the Universe and the Ultimate Nullifier... but the power output would burn him out in the process and kill him. The Builders only care if the massive threat is defeated. If the host dies in the process it doesn't matter. Thus, the tension comes from whether the Avengers would push a kid to kill himself for the sake of the world and if the boy would be willing to use his power knowing the consequence. The MCU has already used guilt as a motive for character behaviours (Iron Man and Ultron). A possible after-effect of Kevin's death could be the Avengers obsessively hunt down other meta-humans - mutant, magician, inhuman or otherwise - to bolster their numbers. "We lost a good kid because we weren't prepared and didn't have the manpower" could be the rationale. This introduces new heroes into the fold. SWORD could be established with Cpt. Marvel as the leader. That way, Earth is never caught unawares again.

[@tightbootyhole7397]

I like that concept

[@furyberserk]

I feel like it would be killing a character for nearly nothing. The hero and threat dies so the movie just becomes Stark makes ultron to not have to sacrifice kids again villian in the next movie or something. It's a trope that closes itself like silver surfer in F42. It solves itself making the issue and story a panic attack of the characters, unless you Thanos people out of the story. I personally don't like it. Doesn't leave much on a basic level. People have to die, or something more must come from it, but must not be a self fixing problem.

He wouldn't be OP for the MCU, he'd be the perfect convenience for a plot device. Starbrand Ex Machina.

[@phantasosxgames8488]

In theory , in reality , his power levels is equal to the threat , as long the brand in itself is stronger. In short , even if the brand in itself is strong than Thor , the user will have the same power level as Thor. If the new villain had a power superior to the brand in itself , Starbrand would access 100% of his powers. It's actually way better than Sentry , which IS "his powers is what the plot demands".

Cosmic armor one shots for 1 simple kinda unfair reason DC has layers of infinite infinity dimensions and stuff Like the bleed contains infinite dimensional areas Which is contained within the time stream which is basically 4 hyper-dimensional (cause it's beyond infinite dimensional) then there's several other things of equally increasing power then you get to the monitorsphere which at this point any being within the monitorsphere could kill all the Beyonders with a snap of their fingers sort of power DC is way crazier then most people think mr.

What about Starbrand vs. Protege? Who'd win in that fight since one is basically infinite power and the other can imitate their abilities and become their equivalent, if not greater? But then Starbrand would power-up to match and so would Protege.

[@JohnnyStaffiles]

The Starbrand is "A brand granting the bearer infinite power, limited in application only by their imagination." Therefore all he would need to do is imagine that he could snap Protege out and he could. There was even an account of the Tribunal locking a universe away from all others due to the wielder using the Brand to such an extent that it was beyond the universe Infinity Gems and beyond the Tribunal. Removing the universe from the rest of the multi-verse was the only thing he COULD due; due to not even being able to stop or destroy the wielder once they fully understood their power with it.

The Starbrand was intended to be a universal defense weapon- something to prevent invaders/beyonders from getting their hooks into a universe. In New Universe, a wielder of the Starbrand becomes more powerful the longer he/she has it and becomes immortal and godlike. One if these tried to end his own life by transferring the brand into an asteroid- the explosion caused the White Event- and not only transferred the power to Kevin Connell, but gave powers to random people on the side of Earth facing the explosion.

You have No idea how happy you made me with this, 2 years ago I found out about this Guy, and when I went to look for him again, I couldnt find anything about him,i thought he was retconned out or something, because I literally couldnt find anything about him.

There's other ways to foil a character like StarBrand, mostly in character writing. Make him a little like Saitama, but maybe more depressed and disinterested. "Thanos is here again? Wake me up when there's actually something for me to do." type response. Or maybe he purposefully holds back for the fun of it, or is a big bully to the bad guys. There's interesting ways to foil a Deus ex Machina character without power caps or practical limitations.

the Starbrand first crossed over in to the main Marvel Universe in the Quasar comic in the 90's when the New Universe line was cancelled.

what if star brand..... gained the power of captain universe?

[@urbnctrl]

As a dinosaur lover, naturally starbrand became a favorite.

New Universe was so amazing at first. I wish they had stuck to the original concept.

[@vprime]

I absolutely LOVE StarBrand.

[@ViolenceCity]

Starbrand can still get bodied though. Only thing about the black order they got right in the MCU was Corvus not dying since his blade was still there.

So what would happen if a Starbrand faced another Starbrand? Infinity vs infinity?
