The Elders of the Universe are a group of the sole survivors of alien races that otherwise went extinct billions of years ago, all of whom achieved immortality by fixating obsessively on a personal pursuit like gathering knowledge, collecting artifacts and living beings, travel and even plants. Elders who have played key roles in the history of the Marvel Universe include the Collector, the Champion, the Grandmaster and Ego the Living Planet. The Collectorwas the first of these beings to appear, debuting in 1966 with Avengers #28, although the Elders of the Universe were not introduced as a group until Avengers #174 in 1978.
