Plot

edit

In a flashback, a Watcher disciple named Uatu was recruited to become a full Watcher by the Eminence. In the present, the Watcher is placed on trial for his repeated interference, such as giving Doctor Strange Supreme the information he needed to recreate his destroyed universe,[a] saving Riri Williams and Kwai Jun-Fan amongst others, as well as involving Captain Peggy Carter in his affairs. The Watcher and Carter are rescued by Infinity Ultron, who sacrifices himself to buy them time to escape. The Watchers give chase, attempting to erase them from existence, but the Watcher grants Carter's team the powers of a Watcher to fight back before Carter sacrifices herself to transport everyone to Strange Supreme's universe where Strange, having become the sentient consciousness of that universe, removes the powers of the Eminence, Incarnate, and Executioner. The Watcher convinces the humbled trio to learn by watching over life in this new universe. As they mourn Carter's death, the Watcher invites Kahhori, Byrdie, and Storm to join him in watching over the multiverse.
