![]() ![]() It could also be that the brother DC Universe is considered just another parallel dimension by the Watchers. In that case, Earth-DC would be another planet watched by Uatu through the or Time-Keepers Portal.īy the way, as they, as the Time Trapper, live at the end of their timelines, there could be another link among the universe’s there, with the Trapper being a rogue Keeper exiled from his Universe. If a race of Watchers existed into the DC Universe, it could have evolved from the Oans after Krona’s Experiment, defending pure observation where his brothers recommended intervention in the matters of the universe. “All-powerful ? There is only one who deserves that name ! And his only weapon is love !” “ Galactus is not evil ! He is above good… or evil ! He does what he must… for he is Galactus !” “Though I sometimes relate events that diverge from our own, my primary task is to monitor the Earth of our universe. I have observed this world from its infancy and I have seen its history unfold” “What if things had turned out differently ? Only I know… For I am the Watcher, and mine is the power to see what was… And what might have been !” “I am the Watcher ! For countless eons I have observed your world and recorded its significant events. Lately I have peered into adjacent realities, realms that embrace the alternate paths your world’s history might have taken.” Like other Watchers, Uatu is sworn to an oath of non-interference. However, he has bent or outright violated his oath on numerous occasions in order to aid humanity. Uatu is considered youthful and rebellious by his brethren, which has put him into trouble with them in more than an occasion.Īt least once, he has been removed from his duty as Watcher of the Earth, but he nevertheless returns to his true calling, observing the world he has become so fond of. In particular, he considers the Fantastic Four to be quite intriguing Reed Richards could be said to be his only human friend. Uatu looks like a towering bald human male with glowing green lidless eyes and pale skin. His head is slightly squarer than a human’s skull. He is dressed in a white garment topped with golden belt and partial armor along his neck, arms and mid torso.Ī blue cloak hangs at his back, fastened both at his shoulders and in one point of his torso, which extends high and stiff behind his head. In more classic garment, Uatu just wears a sleeveless blue suit, a blue cloak fastened with a golden belt, and blue gloves. ![]() He is immortal, virtually invulnerable and has some degree of superstrength. He can also become living light to access hyperspace and manipulate different kinds of energies, mainly magnetism. Finally, he can hide or show his presence or the presence of other things in a number of ways (in DC Heroes terms Chameleon, Invisibility, Illusion, Hypnotism). ![]() His intelligence and knowledge about Earth facts is even higher than Reed Richards’ or Doctor Strange’s, having studied this planet for billions of years, sometimes through multiple timelines. What If…?’s narrator may have a much larger role to play than it appears.Uatu is a Watcher, a being gifted with cosmic powers of mental acuity, psionic and physical shielding and communication. His mind is superhumanly expanded to cover things happening in multiple worlds at the same time. The Watchers, and Uatu in particular, have the cosmic presence to address the TVA and its controller, which gives them a stake in how the freshly minted Multiverse unfolds. That automatically forces the TVA to consider them. But the creation of the Multiverse suggests that the animated series will have a larger hand in the events of Phase Four than previously appeared. That’s a big leap from his traditional role as observer and narrator, which he will presumably fulfill in What If…? Before the season finale of Loki, it looked like that might be his only purpose in the MCU. At the very least, his understanding of how the Multiverse works and knowledge of intimate details of each make him a source of advice and wisdom for figures like Doctor Strange, who will have to navigate the landscape that he has already seen. That, and his eagerness to observe alternate timelines, suggests he may be deemed a threat to the TVA, especially one run by Kang the Conqueror or someone of his ilk. In the comics, Uatu breaks his oath of noninterference more than once, often to help the heroes of Earth counter some cosmic threat such as Galactus or the Over-mind. Here is where the question of their interaction merits attention. ![]()
