The Uni-Mind is a fictional composite being in the Marvel Universe. The Uni-Mind and the Eternals were the creation of Jack Kirby.
[edit] History
Normally the Uni-Mind is a mental gestalt entity of at least seven Eternals, but Uni-Minds have also been comprised of Eternals, Humans, Deviants and Brethren. The Uni-Mind possesses all the powers, knowledge and combined intellect of those who are part of it.
The Eternals often use it as a means to address problems or decisions that are deemed too difficult for them to solve as individuals.
It is not known how long a Uni-Mind can be held together, but there is one which left earth following Zuras' death, and apparently still exists. It comprises most of the Eternals' population, though Ajak, and possibly others, have left its joining. Zuras was the first Eternal to form a Uni-Mind, after they attained cosmic powers, and used it to determine if he or A'Lars should become Prime Eternal. Since then, the Prime Eternal alone has the power to summon the Ritual, and produce the Blue Flame through which the Eternals fly, their forms physically becoming the Uni-Mind. Varua of the Young Gods is also able to create a joining with her fellow Young Gods which is similar to the Uni-Mind
