Marvel Comics (Earth-616)

Infinity Gauntlet

The scroll told of six beautiful and deadly gems whose origins were only vaguely and fearfully hinted at. Individually, each gem possessed powers awesome. Together, they could accomplish even what Thanos desired. The Infinity Gems are six powerful, ancient artifacts originating from before the universe’s creation. Each gem is attuned to one facet of the universe: Soul, Power, Space, Time, Reality, and Mind. Once all six Gems are gathered and placed into the Infinity Gauntlet, it gives its wearer omnipotence and nearly full control of the universe. The Gems have fallen into the hands of many holders over the years, and are rarely all assembled into the Gauntlet.
