Captain Universe

The Enigma Force is a god of light that purportedly originated when the universe was created as a reaction to the appearance of the dark god Knull, to whom it was diametrically opposed. For billions of years, the God of Light waged a war against its opposite, but realized that bonding to multiple individuals spread its power too thin to stand against the Dark. The God of Light began selecting a singular host to bond to and bestow its power upon, with that host coming to be known as Captain Universe.[2] The Enigma Force is also a tool used by the Beyonders via their Concordance Engines to help them maintain the universes within the Multiverse.[7][5] It is also connected to the Spacewall that separates the Macroverse and Microverse, selecting a being within the latter to serve as its living embodiment.[8] When the Enigma Force chooses a partner, it endows that person (or, rarely, people) with the powers, memories, and costume of Captain Universe. The partner can use the powers of Captain Universe until the peril is surmounted. However, if the partner tries to use those powers for personal gain or for evil, the Uni-Power immediately deserts them.[citation needed] Captain Universe is the protector of Eternity and an avatar of life.[3]
