Another prominent alien race is The Watchers, immortal and wise beings who watch over the Marvel Universe and have taken a sacred vow not to intervene in events, though the Watcher assigned to Earth, Uatu, has violated this oath on several occasions.

Others such as Uatu the Watcher, Eon, or the Celestials Ashema and Tiamut are aberrations in the sense of sympathising with and occasionally coming to the defense of humanity.

** Uatu, the Watcher

While the mainstream versions do defeat their counterparts, they are also able to force the Centurion from the timeline, after which Uatu the Watcher tells them he is Kang.

But Uatu the Watcher sent the Human Torch and Thing back in time.

The stories of the inaugural series ( 1977 – 1984 ) feature the alien, Uatu the Watcher as a narrator.

Uatu was used similarly in the second series ( 1989 – 1998 ) until a point where, in the Fantastic Four comic book, Uatu was punished for destroying another Watcher.

Uatu the Watcher narrates some issues and there is a cameo by Brian Michael Bendis as narrator ( see " The narrator " above ).

The new format is explained by " Uatu the Watcher " having discovered historical documents from an alternative dimension.

It described what may have been if the " Uatu, the Watcher " killed Galactus to prevent Galactus from consuming the Earth.

Uatu the Watcher, acting as his lawyer and with the help of Odin and Galactus himself, convinced the gathered tribunal that Galactus is a necessary force of betterment of the universe, not a villain.

After completing the game, Uatu the Watcher will give a glimpse into the future and tell the player what the consequences of his or her actions are.

Uatu, often simply known as The Watcher, is a fictional character that appears in comic books published by Marvel Comics.

Uatu is the Watcher assigned to observe Earth and its solar system.

Uatu is the Watcher assigned to watch over Earth from his home in the Blue Area of the Moon.

Uatu is removed from his duty as Watcher of the Earth, but he returns to observe the world he has become so fond of.

Watts ( whose name recalls " Uatu " and " Watcher ") encounters non-powered versions of Spider-Man, Wolverine, and Daredevil, who face problems similar to their super-powered counterparts from Earth-616.

When it comes to the future part revolving around finding the damaged Ultimate Nullifier at Castle Doom, Uatu mentions that Mephisto will one day seek to conquer Earth.

Yet other characters are capable of breaking the fourth wall and addressing the readers directly, such as the She-Hulk and Deadpool ; and still others, such as the Earth's Watcher, Uatu, is possessed of the ability to see all alternate Earths in the Marvel Universe setting at will, including the real one in which he and all other beings are nothing more than fictional characters ( in some early issues of What If ?, the Watcher actually addressed the reader by showing him which issues of which comics the past exploits of a given character could be found in ).

Most What If stories begin with Uatu describing an event in the mainstream Marvel Universe, then introducing a point of divergence in that event and then describing the consequences of the divergence.

The mini-series Marvel 1602 reveals that, although The Fantastic Four # 13 was the first time he broke his oath, the anomalous appearance of Marvel's superheroes more than 300 years early-speculated by Uatu to be the result of the universe trying to create the means to save itself from a temporal anomaly-forced him to severely bend it, communicating with the 1602 version of Doctor Strange prior to the latter's death, his deal with Strange preventing Strange from telling anyone else about the danger facing the world while he lived while allowing him to communicate that knowledge with others after his physical body's demise.

* Uatu features in the Marvel: Ultimate Alliance video game, voiced by Phil LaMarr.

* Uatu was parodied in the webcomic PvP, coming down to Earth to observe the trial of the lawsuit put forth by Marvel Comics against the creators of City of Heroes ( in a rather annoying fashion ).

Only Rogue, Ms. Marvel, Beast, Falcon, Cyclops, Iron Man and Doctor Strange are left – they were the ones who were directly confronting Cap and Wanda – and a guilt-ridden Beast, learning from Uatu that Cap would have recovered from his illness and abandoned his manipulative relationship with the Witch as he became leader of a new team of Avengers if Beast had done nothing, realizes that he should have left everything alone.

Uatu soon appears and warns them of the bad thing that will happen if they return to Earth.

From the moon, Uatu, a member of an immortal race of " Watchers ", observes both the Earth and alternate realities.

This made the use of Uatu improbable so the character was phased out to its last appearance in issue # 76.

The words are spoke in exasperation by Uatu.

Later, Uatu directs " Quasar " to track down " The Living Laser " through several What If universes.

For his continuous disregard for the Watchers ' mission, Uatu is once placed on trial by the Watchers.

When the Shi ' ar seek to prosecute Mister Fantastic for saving Galactus ' life, Uatu serves as his lawyer.

Uatu is present when the Dreaming Celestial awakens, but he turns away, unwilling to watch.
