TheInfinity Stonesare some of the old and most powerful artefact in theMarvel Comicsuniverse , as they are , indeed , conduit of the ability channeled throughout the very material of the universe itself . These gems grant one god - comparable power the likes of which most someone ca n’t even comprehend , get alone wangle . However , that did n’t stop these underrated poor boy and villain from wielding them .
The sixInfinity Stones each play a different building - block of the cosmos : infinite , time , mogul , thinker , realism , and soul . And they do n’t necessitate to be together to exhibit Brobdingnagian power , either , as certain stones can be wielded alone and still make the individual using it one of the strongest life-time forms in the cosmos . Unfortunately , the Infinity Stones ca n’t always keep in line who exert them , imply they sometimes terminate up in the hands of those who have no right hand using a cosmic artefact of this magnitude . Here are the 15 most underrated champion and villains to ever maintain an Infinity Stone .
15Titania
InShe - Hulk#10 by Dan Slott and Paul Pelletier , Titania is offered the Power Gem by the former Champion of the Universe , and she utilize it to fight against She - Hulk . Despite her recent inclusion in the MCU , Titania is still a fairly dark villain for a superhero who has n’t exactly breached the A - list tier up yet herself , making the fact that she actually used an Infinity Stone all the more shocking .
14She-Hulk
In that very same story arc fork fromShe - Hulk#10 , She - Hulk was capable to take the Power Stone aside from Titania and manage it herself . For a brief minute , She - Hulk was perhaps the strongest entity in the existence , as her pre - live Hulk - strength was merged with all the office of the universe , make - quite literally - the ultimate ball of fire . However , given She - Hulk ’s more grounded storylines that oftentimes revolve around Jennifer Walters as a lawyer as much as She - Hulk as a superhero , it ’s still surprising that she ’d use ( or even have access to ) the Power Gem .
13Black Widow
Like She - Hulk , Black Widow is famous for more grounded , earthbound adventures . She is a superspy , after all , which means her storylines are usually ace of espionage . However , one such story quickly turned cosmic with the launching of the Space Stone , and Black Widow did n’t pause to use it to her advantage during her mission . InInfinity Countdown : Black Widow#1 by Gerry Duggan , Nik Virella , and Brent Schoonover , Black Widow is delight a package carry the Space Stone , and when she discovers that ’s what she was go , she uses it herself to teleport through the facility , drink down enemy silently and in a flash . Black Widow bide true to her more low - key fruit spy - side , while utilizing cosmic powers to do so . Unexpected , to be sure , but also improbably fitting .
12Drax the Destroyer
One of the more worth entry on this list commit his cosmic origins and his link to Thanos , Drax the Destroyer once hold possession of the Power Gem . However , it ’s not ‘ who ’ wielded the Edward Durell Stone , in this case , that landed Drax on this lean , it ’s ‘ how ’ he did so . During theWarlock and the Infinity Watchseries by Jim Starlin and Angel Medina , Drax accidentally rust the Power Gem thinking it was a jelly bean plant . He held the stone all right , just not in any way that would allow him to utilize its power - although , the next entrance actually test that affirmation wrongly .
11Prince of Power
The Prince of Power is essentially Marvel ’s He - Man , who ’s something of a parody of the classic action - anatomy hero while also standing firmly within Marvel canyon as his own cosmic superhero . InGuardians of the Galaxy AnnualVol . 4 # 1 by Al Ewing and Flaviano Armentaro , it is revealed that the Prince of Power get his ability from the Power Gem itself . rum enough , he was capable to utilize the Stone ’s superpower by doing something the premature entry on this listing did : exhaust it . Rather than the Stone simply pose dormant inside his stomach , however , Prince of Power was able-bodied to channel the Gem ’s energythroughout his body . This fibre certainly used the Power Stone better than Drax , too bad he ’s perhaps the most obscure on this list .
10Turk Barrett
belike most recognizable from his MCU adaptations in theDefenders Saga , Turk Barrett is a go back street - grade character who has connections within every corner of New York City ’s criminal underworld . That makes him a heavy plus to vigilante like Daredevil and the Punisher , as Turk is more than happy to give up his fellow criminals to debar a superhero beat - down . However , inInfinity Countdown : Daredevil#1 by Gerry Duggan , Chris Sprouse , Phil Noto , and Lee Ferguson , it was Turk who had the capacity to eclipse any hero who dared mountain with him , as he find himself in willpower of the Mind Stone . In fact , Turk only gave up the Stone after he made Doctor Strange promise that he ’d owe him a favour . Turk with the cosmic great power granted by the Mind Stone was sure enough a new facial expression for the otherwise unspectacular career outlaw .
9Ultimate Tony Stark
While Tony Stark is no alien to wielding the Infinity Stones ( both in the comic strip and the MCU ) , the version of Iron Man from the Ultimate Universe is less familiar with the artifacts , given their notably different nature in Earth-1610 . Rather than cosmic artifacts formed upon the macrocosm of the existence , the Ultimate Universe ’s Infinity Gems were likened to ‘ cosmic scabs ’ that would form during times of crisis . Infinity Gems manifested before those desirable to maintain them at specific power point in history , and one manifest inside Tony Stark ’s strong-arm brain ( as expose inUltimate Comics The Ultimates#27 by Joshua Hale Fialkov and Carmine Di Giandomenico ) . Tony Stark did n’t ‘ maintain ’ the Gem so much as his body create it by convey the cosmic energies of the universe in ways that he was n’t even cognizant of , make this entry as revoltingly strange as it is unique .
8Bobo the Chimp
The interpretation of Bobo the Chimp fans are likely most familiar with is the She - Hulk friend created by the High Evolutionary , though the edition of the theatrical role who wielded an Infinity Gem ( the Mind Gem , to be precise ) , survive in the Ultraverse and made their one - and - only appearance inMantra#22 by Mike W. Barr and Dave Roberts . This Bobo achieved wisdom through the Mind Stone itself , after the cosmic artifact strike down into his zoo enclosure , grant him a more advanced , human - like mind . Bobo might be the least pregnant life form on this leaning to maintain an Infinity Stone , but is perhaps the one who got the most out of their experience .
7High Evolutionary
Speaking of the High Evolutionary , he too had an Infinity Stone in his possession for a time , the Soul Stone , and he used it to do the one affair he ’s best at : produce . Or , more accurately , ameliorate . In fact , it was the High Evolutionary who gave Adam Warlock the Soul Gem that was excellently plant in his frontal bone throughout the majority of his Marvel Comics life history . This second ( which materialize inMarvel Premiere#1 by Roy Thomas and Gil Kane ) turned Adam Warlock into the cosmic hero fans know and do it today . The Soul Gem has almost become synonymous with Adam Warlock , so the fact that it was actually given to him by the High Evolutionary oftentimes goes unremembered , and is a very underrated moment in both of their histories .
6In-Betweener
After Adam Warlock was on the face of it killed fighting Thanos , the Soul Gem finally fell into the hands of the In - Betweener inSilver Surfer#16 by Steve Englehart and Ron Lim . The In - Betweener is a cosmic being exist in a aeonian state between life and last . He wished to untune the power structure of the cosmos by using the Soul Gem to destruct Galactus , though he fail miserably to do so . In the end , however , the In - Betweener turned out to merely be a footer in the history of the Soul Gem , especially after Thanos steal it from him during theThanos Questevent leading up toInfinity Gauntlet .
