Many of the characters listed here simply are not truly Cosmic Entities based on the two criteria in the article (power and/or universal importance.) Many are just gods, demons, sorcerers or ancient aliens. I suggest we keep only the following:

• The Endless, with a note that their importance may be exaggerated (they never seem involved in the cosmic-level crises in the DC Universe proper.)
• The 5th Dimensional Imps (assuming they really are as powerful as they seem- it's hard to tell.)
• Black Racer, for being an agent of the Source and/or Death... though again, he's rarely ever seen.
• Imperiex, though in the end he realized he was an "anomaly".
• Krona, after becoming an embodiment of Entropy.
• Mogo, for being a planet-sized being.
• Solaris, for having the power of a (lesser) Sun.
• Starbreaker, barely qualifies for being able to break stars using planets.
• Sun-Eaters, for being star-sized.
• Takion, for being the Avatar of The Source.
• The Unimaginable, for actually being able to cause stars to go nova directly (unlike Starbreaker.)
• X-hal, not a real goddess but drawing power from a star (Vega.)
• Yuga-Kahn, for his connections to the Source.
• Guardians of the Universe (in terms of power, at least. Note none of the other Maltusian races compare to them in power.)
• certain Lords of Order and Chaos, such as Kismet (certainly not all.)
• The Presence
• Maya
• The Elementals
• The Source
• The Spectre
• Eclipso- formerly; he has neither the power nor the role he once had (The Spectre took over both.)

Not listed, but definitely cosmic beings: The Monitor, and The Anti-Monitor. Possibly Harbinger when she had her full power. (Her sucessor, Donna Troy, doesn't seem to have it.)

I'd like to see some discussion on this before I start editing the article. -Wilfredo Martinez 00:55, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
