Edit request on 2 May 2012

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I'd like to request a change for the 1960's portion. Currently it reads "In an apparent bid for power the character engages the universal embodiment, Eternity, in single combat, but is defeated and banished." There are three key problems with this as is:

1)Dormammu destroyed Eternity's avatar and was transported to another dimension as a result of his own unrestrained attack. Dormammu's massive spell caused Eternity to explode, and the resultant explosion caused one of Eternity's internal planetoids to collide with Dormammu, which, as was eventually revealed, lead to Dormammu being transported to a random dimension. The use of the word "banished" implies some amount of volition; no one intended for Dormammu to be transported to that dimension, so that wording is very misleading.

2)Additionally, the word "defeated" implies that Eternity won the battle, ignoring the fact that Dormammu's "banishment" was the result of his own rage-fulled actions; it also ignores the fact that Eternity exploded, and whether dead or not, Eternity was left completely incapacitated by Dormammu's attack. If I were to walk into a bank with C4 strapped to my chest and blew himself up with the whole bank, writing "Building defeats Dormammu!" would be a pretty bizarre way to recount the events.

3)And finally, Dormammu attacked Eternity out of frustration due to Eternity's constant interference with his goals. Calling it a "bid for power" implies that Dormammu expects to gain physical power or the like from the encounter.

Question: Would you please suggest a specific wording for the replacement? ~Adjwilley (talk) 02:46, 11 May 2012 (UTC)
Not done: please be more specific about what needs to be changed. Requests need to be in the form of "please change X to Y", not simply "please change X." elektrikSHOOS (talk) 01:33, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

wikilinks wrong linked

@ character section "to have clashed with Agamotto hundreds of millions of years ago; to have served as the primary enemy of the Vishanti ever since; and to have been considered an extreme threat by the mages of "pre-cataclysm" Atlantis." pre-cataclysm links to "kull the conquerer" from DC comics, atlantis links to the marvel universe atlantis. isn't it supposed to make the 2 things link to the same thing, to the MU atlantis...? that DC link doesn't make any sense. greetings from germany
