WARNING: Spoilers follow for Iron Man #7 by Christopher Cantwell, CAFU, Frank D'Armata & VC's Joe Caramagna, on sale now.

Iron Man put together a group of heroes to battle Korvac that leaves a lot to be desired. However, while many superheroes are so close to battle that they can't see the big picture, these smaller forgotten heroes have a lot of time to reflect on the world around them.

The team includes Scarlet Spider, Misty Knight, Halcyon, Frog-Man, and Gargoyle. These five C-list heroes are all Iron Man has by his side to go up against Korvac outside of his best friend War Machine and his latest partner, Hellcat. However, a conversation between the ragtag assortment of heroes demonstrated that they have a clear understanding of exactly what they are up against and the stakes involved.

Gargoyle and Misty Knight

This all started when Frog-Man, initiated a conversation about figuring out a team name. Scarlet Spider mentioned they are not a team and are just Tony Stark's employees. Frog-Man was not to be stopped, though, and after getting Star Warriors shut down, he offered the name "God Fighters" since they were battling a supervillain who thinks he is a god. Misty Knight pointed out that no one even knows what "god" means anymore, throwing out names like Jehovah, Yahweh, Allah, Buddha, and even Thanos. After Gargoyle mentions that Buddha was a man, Scarlet Spider points out that Thanos is a Titan.

In the Marvel Universe, the word god gets thrown around a lot. In cases like Thanos and Korvac, the word refers to powerful men (or aliens) who consider themselves gods but have no right to refer to themselves as such. In cases like Thor, Odin, Zeus, and Hercules, the lines are blurred. Misty Knight was confused, wondering if a god could be an android like Korvac, a celestial, or a glove with gems in it, referring to the Infinity Gauntlet. Scarlet Spider tried to philosophize the entire idea of a god, saying that something or someone is holding them all together, which Frog-Man thought was funny coming from a clone.

Gargoyle

Finally, Gargoyle added his thoughts. Being the smartest man in the room, when he finished talking, no one else had anything they could have added to the conversation about what a god is in the Marvel Universe and why the superheroes exist. Gargoyle eloquently reveals that god is the word for balance in the universe, and something is always threatening to tip the scales. That is why superheroes exist. They are there to rebalance the scales, and they dedicate themselves to that balance. It is a superhero's job to treat the universe with reverence, fixing the things that go wrong.

This is seen in many situations. In Iron Man, these four C-list heroes are in over their heads against a god-like villain in Korvac, and it is their jobs to stop him and rebalance the universe once again. In Infinity War, it was the job of Earth's mightiest heroes to stop the use of the Infinity Gauntlet, whether by Thanos or Magus, and rebalance the scales so that the world could continue to move into the future, living life to its fullest. With King in Black threatening to destroy Earth under the hand of another would-be god in Knull, the heroes are once again gathered together to rebalance the scales, eliminate the would-be conqueror, and reset the world back to its original course. Heroes exist to fix the world and stop those who claim to be gods from reshaping it in their own images.
