Page "Marvel Universe" Paragraph 44

Many persons and beings have falsely pretended to be gods or demons during history ; in particular, none of the ones claiming to be major figures from Judeo-Christian beliefs has turned out to be the real article, although a number of angels have appeared in recent years, as well as an apparent true rebellion and expulsion of angels from a higher realm known as Paradise, proving that some form of Heaven and Hell do exist in this Universe, seemingly like those in keeping with common real world religious belief.

Similarly, demons are evil magical beings who take affairs in the matters of the universe.

Some of the most powerful are Blackheart, Mephisto, Nightmare, Satannish, and Zom.

There are also powerful benevolent mystical entities such as The Vishanti ; or amoral and malevolent entities who are not truly demonic in nature, such as Dormammu and The Octessence, or ones heavily drawing upon the mythology of H. P.

Lovecraft, such as Shuma-Gorath.
