History
The being known only as "Him" was an artificial creation of the Hive, which was trying to create the perfect human. This being, emerging from his cocoon, wished nothing to do with his "fathers," and destroying the Hive, became a cosmic wanderer. Happening upon Counter-Earth, he befriended the High Evolutionary, took the name Adam Warlock, and allied himself with the Soul Gem. The paradise of Counter-Earth was soon overrun by the forces of the Man-Beast, who destroyed Adam. However, Warlock rose from the dead to restore harmony to the planet.
He once more took to the space-ways, and discovered the Magus, his evil future self, had enslaved a thousand worlds. Determined both to defeat the Magus and to make sure he never became the Magus, Warlock gathered allies that included Gamora, Pip the Troll, and Thanos. He fought his future self and defeated him by erasing Magus' time-line and destroying any chance of the Magus' ever existing (by going a short distance into the future and absorbing the future Adam Warlock into his Soul Gem -- essentially committing cosmic suicide.) Discovering his ally Thanos actually intended to destroy the Universe as a gift to Death, Warlock traveled to Earth and contacted the Avengers for help. Mortally wounded the following confrontation, Warlock found himself face-to-face with his past self and was absorbed into the Soul Gem. Unfortunately, Thanos still had enough power to destroy Earth's sun; Warlock's spirit was called forth from the Gem to stop him.
For many years, Warlock's spirit lived in contentment within the utopia he found inside Soul Gem. However, discovering that Thanos was alive and in possession of the Infinity Gems, Warlock resurrected himself (and his two companions Pip and Gamora) to confront the Mad Titan. After the ensuring battle, Warlock himself ended up with the Infinity Gauntlet, becoming the Supreme Being of the Marvel Universe. Ordered by the Living Tribunal to divest himself of the Gems, Warlock divided them between six different care-takers, retaining the Soul Gem for himself, thus forming "the Infinity Watch." The Infinity Watch defeated several other attempts to conquer the Universe, including one by a reborn Magus and another by Warlock's feminine counterpart, the Goddess.
