![]() Like most of the "cosmic entity" characters that dot the landscape of the early Marvel Universe stories, Ego was a "big idea" character created in collaboration between Jack Kirby and Stan Lee. ![]() Oh, and for you philosophy students reading this: Yes, there is in also a "Living Universe" named Super Ego, a twin rival named Alter Ego, a rampaging humanoid "cast-off" named Ego Prime and a related fellow named Id The Selfish Moon - but this is going to be confusing enough without explaining everything about all of them, too. And since he's kind of a jerk about the whole situation (the devouring), he's frequently an enemy of any cosmically-inclined Marvel superhero (or villain, for that matter) who crosses his path having scrapped with the likes of Thor, The Fantastic Four, The Hulk, Quasar and Spaceknight ROM. Ego originated in an unidentified sector of (relatively) near-Earth space called "The Black Galaxy" (canonically assumed to actually be a large-scale nebula somewhere within the Milky Way) is capable of traveling through space in a non-orbital trajectory, at one point propelled by an engine gifted him by Galactus and much like that fellow esoterically-unimaginable cosmic threat, Ego has been known to devour smaller planets, living things and other things that get in his way in order to sustain himself.
