This powerful group has controlled many aspects of Marvel stories and now we are going to have it in the MCU
The Illuminati are a group that were born in the 18th century. They were originally called the Order of the Enlightened and originated from bavaria. This group has been consolidated by very powerful people in our society and there is really a lot of mysticism about them. Obviously comics and Marvel are not something that is on the fringes of society and at one point in their long history they decided to take the plunge and create their own group.
The group was originally created by Tony Stark, i.e. Ironman. This group as in reality is something quite mystical and secret, only these people have superpowers. The group was initially made up of Ironman, Doctor Strange, Professor Charles Xavier, Reed Rechards, Namor and Black Lightning. At the beginning, T’Challa was also invited, but he did not want to be involved in secrecy.
Now it seems that we will be able to see this group within the UCM since they will appear in their new movie, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Since they are going to be included on the big screen we have reviewed who would be the most powerful. Seen what has been seen so far, the most powerful is Dr. Strange. At least in the mystical and magical.
In the comics, the most powerful is obviously Professor X. Charles Xavier He is the one who has the most power since his superpowers could eliminate the face of the earth with a stroke of the pen, as shown in some comics than another.
Physically, there is, so to speak, a draw between Namor and Black Lightning, since both have supernatural strength. Doctor Strange is not such a powerful character in the Marvel comics, but we will have to see what happens in the cinema.
