Powerful Items from the Comics Multiverse

This list contains an overall look at Powerful Items in no particular order other than I try to group them by "type" and what they are made of. An example would be Thor's Hammer and Uru Metal. Well, they are close together. They ARE NOT ranked by Power. I have also broken this list into Marvel, DC and Other. Check those lists out for more specific by "Universe" and feel free to make recommendations, but please do so in those specific lists. Have a nice day and enjoy.

List items

  • Katana's sword that takes the soul of those it kills. Has been with her since her origin

  • The Black Knight's sword. It can cut through anything and it has several magical properties.

  • A Chaos forged black blade capable of draining the soul of those slaying by it.

    Stormbringer is a tremendously powerful sword. Like the Ebony Blade from Marvel comics it can cut through most substances and can withstand any impact, along with that the vampiric blade can drain the soul of those it kills. To be more precise a single cut from the blade is enough for it to devour the soul of the wounded person. Along with that some amount of vital energy is transferred through the blade and into the user. Under a weak user the can control his of her actions and even the strongest wielders may sometimes encounter a moment of mental weakness which the blade will use to its advantages.

    The blade itself has a "brother", or as close as a weapon can get, Mournblade. Mournblade, is capable of all the same actions as Stormbringer, the only difference it wielder were weaker.

    The Sword of Omens is the one thing that holds all the Thundercats powers. In the center of the sword (between the handle and the blade) lies the Eye of Thundera. A mystical jewel that is red with a black strip down the middle (a cat's eye).

    Once thought that if destroyed it would be the end of all the Thundercats. It has been passed down to all that are found worthy of handling the sword. Usually, it’s been the Kings of Thundera that have carried the sword.

    Lion-o’s father in a final effort to save his son and the sword gave the sword to Jaga to guard until Lion-o was of age to rule. The sword is of great mystery and can be used for many of things:

    - The sword can summon the Thundercats.

    - It can also protect the hold with a force field.

    - The sword is always sharp. It has been know to cut through the strongest of stone.

    - When called upon the Eye sends a raw power up through the blade. Sending a very damaging affect when hits it mark.

    Thinking the Sword of Omens was the only power of the Thundercats, the Thundercats later found out that the sword was only the beginning...

    Abilities of the Rings

    As a conduit of power from the blue range of the emotional spectrum, the Blue Power rings have a number of abilities akin to those of other Lantern Rings. The Ring is a source of limitless power, and thus there is no limit to what it can do, but here are some abilities it has been shown to have.

In such situations, the rings can only enable Blue Lanterns to fly and be protected from the ravages of space.

  • The Phoenix Blade contains a portion of the Phoenix Force within it and grants its wielder immeasurable power.

  • Two swords forged by Muramasa, the first one contains a piece of his own soul and the second one contains part of Wolverine's.

    Black Blade:

    The first Muramasa Blade(the Black Blade) was created centuries ago by Muramasa. When Muramasa forged the weapon, he literally placed a piece of his own soul into it. In this act, the blade became filled with mystical powers. As a result, whoever wielded this deadly weapon would be granted superhuman abilities. The wielder would then possess invulnerability and superhuman strength. However, these abilities came at a price. If the wielder of the Muramasa Blade possesses it for too long, then he/she will become overwhelmed by Muramasa's mad soul.

    Wolverine's Blade:

    Muramasa created the seconed blade for Wolverine. Muramasa did this because he wanted to exact revenge upon the people who killed his wife, Itzu. This blade is made of the same unknown material as the first, and it is just as indestructible. Unlike the first blade, however, the second blade can prevent healing factors. For example, when Wolverine wielded his Muramasa blade against Sabretooth, the blade's powers inhibited the use of Creed's (Sabretooth) healing abilities. The blade was broken and Daken's wrist claws when coated with the metal. Wolverine removed Daken's Muramasa claws and buried them with the Muramasa blade in an unknown location.
