In an interview withCBR , Ewing revealed that a remainder of the Second Cosmos still exists and is somehow link up to the openhanded scoundrel of the serial , the Beyonder , the adversary of the originalSecret Warsand one of the most hefty creatures in Marvel history .

The Omegas are a powerful racecreated by the Celestials(the original dweller of the First Cosmos ) , when they colonized the Second Cosmos . The Omegas were create to be the Celestials ' servants . When the Second Cosmos was destroyed , a chemical group of Omegas survived and establish equipment called Concordance Engines to bind together all the most unique events they found across the Multiverse into one humans : Earth .
The use of the Omegas ' hitch with Earth was to make the perfect environment where super - powered being could be born and developed , in rules of order to press the Death Celestials , the waster of the Second Cosmos . This idea was used to explicate why Earth seems to be always at the center of the most of import issue in the universe , and why so many super - powered beings appear there . It is an interesting concept that however fell by the roadside until Jason Aaron recovered it for hisAvengersrun , where it was explicate that when the satellite was immature , a die Celestial fell to Earthand bring up the satellite with his corporal fluids . This made the major planet a breeding ground for extraordinary beingness . It will be also interesting to see if Ewing will seek to reconcile the two stories in his series .
The homecoming of the Omegas and the Concordance Engines could have a major shock on Marvel ’s stories . The events ofDefendersvol . 4 were explained as part of a divergent timeline , but the Concordance Engines should exist in every reality in the Multiverse , including Earth-616 . This possibility has never been search until now , and it is very potential that Ewing and Rodríguez will apply this opportunity to take a deep dive into Marvel ’s cosmogeny in a singular and fascinating way , just as they did inDefenders . As a result , Defenders : Beyondwill in all probability change fan ' entire perception of the history of theMarvelMultiverse forever .
