History:
Abraxas presumably came into existence when
this universe was formed, spontaneously assuming the
embodiment of destruction that is the counterpart to the
very act of creation embodied by the being known as Eternity.
Abraxas grew within the core of Eternity,
although into each
reality, Eternity made certain a being existed to keep Abraxas
from emerging. This being would later be known as the
planet-devouring Galactus.
In
recent years, however, the Galactus of the prime reality died,
allowing Abraxas to emerge. He soon began to cut a swath
of terror through various alternate realities, including the murder of
other versions of Galactus. He used the head of Galactus to target and
home in on the prime reality Earth and to plant a mole in the version
of the Herald known as Nova. On Earth, Abraxas attacked Uatu the Watcher
and stole half of his signature medallion. Abraxas taunted the Fantastic
Four with the inevitability of his coming, enticing the team to search
for the Ultimate Nullifer, the clues to the location of which were scattered
among alternate realities. Ultimately, the Four found the Nullifer when
Abraxas suddenly appeared and stole it from them. Abraxas called forth
an army of Novas to attack Earth, but the Fantastic Four held no hope
of defeating him. Instead, Franklin Richards, the son of the Four members Mister Fantastic and the Invisible
Woman, combined his cosmic powers with those of his sister Valeria, resurrecting
Galactus and thus restoring balance to Eternity, at the cost of burning
out his powers. Galactus took the Nullifer from Abraxas, giving it to
Mister Fantastic, who used the weapon, destroying himself and Abraxas.
The result served to re-create reality in which Abraxas never existed,
and since all that was had ended, all that is was realigned, allowing
Mister Fantastic to survive along with all those who died in Abraxas'
reign of terror.
