Terminus is a fictional character appearing in the Marvel Comics universe.
[edit] Bio
It has alternatively been depicted as a giant bloated alien inside an immense suit of power armor, or as a hive-like entity composed of a great number of man-sized aliens. It has fought both the Avengers and the Fantastic Four. Terminus once laid waste to the Savage Land, but it was later restored to its former condition by the High Evolutionary.
Terminus is perhaps most memorable for having used his Power Lance to carve, in letters whose lines were one-half mile wide, the message "I claim this world--Terminus." This message covered the entire continental United States, stretching from the southwest to just west of Manhattan.
At one time, Garokk the Petrified Man inhabited the Terminus armor and was compelled to operate it.
One incarnation of Terminus used Moloids, the Mole Man's mindless servants, to construct a body for himself. This incarnation of Terminus was ultimately defeated by the Silver Surfer with the help of the Fantastic Four, and the Moloids were set free.
Terminus appeared in the JLA/Avengers crossover event. In it Terminus attacked the DC Universe's Earth. It faced the Justice League of America and showed he was able to hurt some of the members to their surprise. Terminus had the upperhand until Batman realized the power he contained was in the staff he held. Once Batman realized this, he was able to trick Terminus by making him think they were trying to take the staff, but what they actually did was counter the power of the staff into himself, and there he was defeated.
[edit] Other Media
Terminus has been confirmed to appear in the 2006 Fantastic Four TV series.
