The Infinity Stones are items of enormous power and when used differently, they give their owners distinctive value. When these stones are merged, they make a way to unlimited power and show its potential to whoever uses them.
Someone, who is a part of Marvel Universe, is not very fond of how these magical stones look and neither is he influenced by at least one of stone’s powers. That someone is Doctor Strange. Doctor Strange was not very glad when these stones made a comeback during the Infinity Countdown event.
The Infinity Stones:
Infinity stones are laid out in time and space in Infinity Countdown #5. With the help of Kang the Conqueror, Adam Warlock takes soul stone in his possession. Talking about the different stones, every superhero has a different stone in its possession.
Captain Marvel possesses Reality Stone, Black Widow the Space Stone; Drax has the Power Stone; Doctor Strange the Time Stone; and Turk Barrett, former Stilt-Man, has the Mind Stone. While the only superhero with unclear intentions is Turk Barrett and what is even more interesting is that he is the WILD CARD of the group. When Doctor Strange met Black Widow in the Sanctum Sanctorum and told him about a piece of magic crystal. What Doctor strange came to know was that the magic crystal itself was used to spy on the holders of Infinity Stones, who were Earth-bound.
Doctor Strange confronted Barrett:
The only superhero whose intentions were not clear was Barrett and he was using the Mind Stone for his personal gains. This somehow helped the magical crystal in locating the Mind Stone. Therefore, this piece of crystal discovered other locations of the Infinity Stones. The question is how does the piece of crystal traced the location and transmitted the information. The crystal used a low frequency that exists in the lowest dimension to trace the locations of Infinity Stones. But the locations of other Infinity stones were traced after Barrett’s Stone was traced. Therefore, he was confronted by Doctor Strange. To get away from this conversation, Barrett tried to use his Mind stone to control Doctor Strange so that he forgets finding him. But it didn’t go according to his plan.
Doctor Strange told Barrett that his command doesn’t affect him. Certainly, this happened because of the protective Eye of Agamotto that nullifies the effects of the mind stone. However, Barrett somehow distracted Doctor Strange and fled from the scene.
Out of all the Avengers that holds the magical abilities, Doctor Strange is the most powerful. And when he uses the Eye of Agamotto along with his very own Time Stone, his power’s magnitude is increased manifolds and this makes him even more noticeable and attractive.
