As the globe is exposed to hundreds of thousands of stories in all media forms, the pantheon of superpowered heroes in pop culture keeps growing. Some of the most famous and extraordinarily powerful people in human history have been made known to the general public through comic books, video games, and manga, but the list is yet unfinished.
It is not appropriate to judge a fictional character’s strength just by their physical prowess or accomplishments. Which fictional characters are the most powerful of all depends on a variety of factors, including their overall command of their assigned talents, their capacity to overcome personal shortcomings, and their strength of character.
Anime, manga, comic books, video games, and more have all included some incredibly strong and powerful characters. They include Greek and Norse gods as well as cosmic entities made of living energy.
These are the strongest of the strongest, whatever the situation may be. Here are the most strongest fictional character:
- Dominions
Of all the forces in the Marvel Universe, the One Above All is without a doubt the most powerful. However, the traditional ultra-cosmic entity faced fierce competition when Dominions appeared in Marvel Comics.
Fundamentally, Dominion are intelligences, or collectives of intelligences, that have developed to the degree of a particular kind of omnipotence that guarantees them a place to live that is independent of both time and space.
Usually, Dominions are the result of multiple artificial intelligences collaborating with one other in a well-planned attempt to bring about the emergence of their own machine god. It was discovered that the AI leadership of the anti-mutant group Orchis had been covertly pursuing precisely this goal.
They were unable to assert Dominionhood as their own, though. Rather, Nathaniel Essex, also referred to as Mister Sinister, rose to become the Dominion currently known as Enigma. By putting everything inside and outside the boundaries of the Marvel Multiverse in danger, he not only endangered his mutant adversaries but also secured his place at the top.
- Arceus
Arceus was the most recent in a long series of legendary Pokémon when it made its debut in the fourth generation of Pokémon games, Diamond and Pearl. Nothing could have prepared players for the discovery that this new Pokémon was actually in charge of creating the entire universe, even though it had fans excited for Arceus’ arrival and increased the tension surrounding its position in the narrative.
In addition to being mysterious in and of itself because of its special Multitype ability, Arceus is also shrouded in a rich, old mythology. Pokémon Pearl indicates that Arceus predated the universe as players know it, however Pokémon Diamond claims that Arceus created the same cosmos “with its 1,000 arms.”
Furthermore, despite the fact that Arceus lacks 1,000 arms in every shape that fans have seen it assume thus far, gamers haven’t yet been given any cause to mistrust its abilities to bend space, time, and reality.

- Miracleman
It should come as no surprise that Miracleman is one of the most potent characters of all time given his lengthy history, which dates back to the 1950s and spans multiple publishers and eras.
Nevertheless, no version of him exists that probably possesses more strength and resources than the one found in Miracleman: The Silver Age by Neil Gaiman and Mark Buckingham.
Miracleman: The Silver Age does not have a protagonist, but it does offer viewers a comprehensive and in-depth look at the world that its namesake hero has created. Miracleman created a utopia free of hunger, conflict, and disease by using his superhuman strength, speed, and senses, as well as his complete invulnerability, regenerative and self-sustaining tissues, and extensive telepathic talents.
But even while it demonstrates his true might, that isn’t enough to elevate him to the status of hero in the most recent installment of his ongoing drama.
- Eddie Brock
Eddie Brock made his Marvel Comics debut in David Michelinie and Marc Silvestri’s Web of Spider-Man #18 in 1986. However, none anticipated that he would go on to become the next big adversary of the Wall-Crawler and even the next living deity in the Marvel Universe.
Nevertheless, Eddie’s life in the comics has followed just that path, and after going through such dramatic transformations for almost forty years, he is still growing stronger.
Eddie learned that he could self-resurrect using the symbiotic Hive thanks to his Codex only after Knull killed him; similarly, Eddie only realized the seemingly limitless scope of his powers as the new King in Black after killing Knull.
Since then, Eddie has developed the ability to control time and space, transcend dimensions with a single thought, rise from the dead at any time, and even devour his own past and future selves to recapture the power they carry.
Even though Eddie Brock’s current persona may seem unclear at first, more investigation into his true nature reveals that he is rapidly approaching the status of the most potent being in the Marvel Universe.
- The One Below All
The One Below All is the complete opposite of the One Above All, if the latter is the ultimate, divine being of the Marvel Multiverse and beyond. In addition, the One Below All is, in a sense, a dark, vindictive alter ego of the One Above All itself.
The One Below All, originally revealed in the pages of 2018’s Immortal Hulk #4 (by Al Ewing, Joe Bennett, Ruy José, and Paul Mounts), resides in the Below-Place, the lowest location in Hell and the hub of its connection to the gamma radiation in the Marvel Universe.
The One Below All gains apparent immortality through access to the ethereal Green Doors, which enable characters like the Hulk to successfully self-resurrect, and this also connects them to the gamma mutates of the Marvel Universe.
- The One Above All
Similar to The Presence in the DC Comics universe, The One Above All is the ultimate deity in the Marvel Comics universe. He is the ultimate fount of life both within and outside the multiverse. The One Above All is the only architect, thus he normally leaves basic issues to his subordinates, including The Beyonder and The Living Tribunal, rather than getting involved.
The One Above All, in contrast to other comic book deities, created The One Below All to counterbalance and balance his abilities. Depending on the writer, he also usually acts as an avatar of Jack Kirby or Stan Lee. Even though The One Above All doesn’t accomplish as many miracles as some formidable fictional characters, he nevertheless easily takes fifth place in the rankings.
- The Presence
The Presence is the ultimate power in DC Comics. Another name for him is Yahweh, which is a variant of the same-named Judeo-Christian Deity. The DC Comics Universe was born out of nothing at all, a universe and multiverse formed by The Presence.
The Spectre, Phantom Stranger, Asmodel, and other entities cannot overthrow The Presence because he created all the gods and extremely strong characters in the DC Universe. He is everywhere and permeates every being in the multiverse. The impetus behind everything is the Presence’s unwavering will.
- Eru Ilúvatar
The strongest character in Tolkien’s universe is Eru Ilúvatar. The intricate mythology of the Tolkienverse holds that Eru Ilúvatar is the creator of everything. The god of this universe is called by many other names, such as “The One,” “Father of All,” and “He that is Alone.”
Many literary studies of The Lord of the Rings compare Eru Ilúvatar to the Christian God. He’s capable of anything. He created the cosmos, for example, and raised Gandalf from the dead during the battle with the Balrog. Eru Ilúvatar’s lack of exploration into multiversal issues is the only thing keeping him from being the greatest fictional character of all time.
- Man of Miracles
One of the most powerful characters in independent comics is The Man of Miracles, also referred to as The Mother of Existence, who rules the reality of the Image Comics universe. She created the cosmos that includes Spawn and is the father of both God and Satan. Serving as a barrier between the two, the Man of Miracles aids in guiding humanity away from annihilation.
The Man of Miracles demonstrates and upholds her sovereignty since he is simultaneously omnipotent, omnipresent, and omniscient. But instead of interfering with people’s daily lives, the Man of Miracles prefers to let superhumans handle things.
- The Creator
As the ultimate god of the universe, The Creator is the strongest figure in anime. The Creator in Umineko no Naku Koro ni’s reality was once a witch, but her capacity to make anything out of nothing soon allowed her to surpass that status and become omnipotent.
Since the Creator operates outside of natural rules, He is limitless and without any real limitations or restrictions. It’s not clear how she became a god, but she had to make a trade-off in order to live freely. Because of how deeply nuanced her persona is, some people also call The Creator The Writer.
Despite her uncertain beginnings, her power levels propel her to the tenth position in the rankings.
