Biography[]

Background[]

Gamora's history is similar to her Earth-199999 counterpart, being a Zehoberei from the planet Zen-Whoberi who was adopted by the titan Thanos. Due to the success of saving her planet, Thanos would believe that he could save the entire universe by reducing half of the population with the Infinity Stones. However, at some point she managed to kill her adoptive father, thus preventing him from going through with his plans. Gamora then proceeded to take his armor and double-edge sword, and went on to destroy the Infinity Stones with the Infinity Crusher to prevent anyone else from abusing their power. Later on, she met and befriended the armored superhero Iron Man, and the two traveled to Sakaar.

Saving the Multiverse[]

Once the Infinity Stones were destroyed, Gamora and Iron Man traveled to Nidavellir where they Eitri, asking him to destroy the Infinity Gauntlet. During the process, Gamora was greeted by Uatu the Watcher, who stated that she was chosen and transported her to a dimension outside of space. Meeting Captain Carter, Star-Lord, Strange Supreme, Party Thor and Prince Killmonger, she was informed by the Watcher that he needed their assistance in stopping Infinity Ultron from conquering the multiverse. Gamora then showed the group the Infinity Crusher, and a plan was formed to stop Ultron by using the crusher and obtain the stones from him. While on an unnamed planet, Strange Supreme provided a toast that resulted in Party Thor altering Ultron to their presence.

Gamora and her teammates were then given protection spells by Strange Supreme to fight the artificial intelligence, but Strange and Thor would fight Ultron to allow the others to escape with the soul stone to Ultron's universe. The group encountered Black Widow and assisted her in fighting Ultron, but the artificial intelligence managed to stop time to re-obtain the soul stone. However, Strange Supreme used the time stone to undo this, allowing them to use the Infinity Crusher. Ultron then revealed that the crusher didn't work as the stones worked differently in his universe, which Gamora realized at the last moment. While Infinity Ultron attempted to kill Strange Supreme, Black Widow managed to shoot an arrow into Ultron, which allowed Arnim Zola's consciousness to enter his robotic body. Upon their victory, Killmonger obtained the stones but locked in a standstill with Zola, and Strange imprisoned the two into a pocket dimension.

After the battle, Uatu congratulated the Guardians on helping him stop Ultron, and allowed them to return to their universes from where they left. Returning to her universe, Gamora reunited with Iron Man as the others returned to home, excluding Black Widow, who was sent to another universe where she and the recruited Avengers were assassinated by Hank Pym.
