Product Information

Obliviously Evil: Tony becomes this in his Darkhold form, believing that he's helping humanity and protecting them of all disease by shutting them into his suits and binding their flesh to steel. Perhaps the book's most dangerous and deadly power that transcended boundaries of universes was providing its user the ability to dreamwalk in other universes. If the user dreamwalked in a universe for too long they could cause an Incursion between their universe and another universe, which could result in the complete destruction of one or both universes, as shown when Sinister Strange's pursuit of dreamwalking with his Darkhold caused the complete destruction of his universe. [3] Project Looking Glass: A project created by Madame Hydra and The Doctor in the Framework which was then built by Anton Ivanov's men on his oil platform in the real world. Aida then used it to create a living body with Inhuman abilities for herself. In the 1920s, the pre-Babylonian tomb was discovered by archaeologists who were rendered insane by their attempt to translate the hieroglyphs depicting the Darkhold source. [17]

However, both Radcliffe and Aida were still corrupted by the Darkhold, which enabled Radcliffe to create fully-functional Life-Model Decoys as well as upgrade the Framework to become a full virtual recreation of the real world, complete with self-conscious copies of the real people living in in. [53] Aida then sought to use the Darkhold to replace her robotic body with a real human one, and enhanced it with Inhuman abilities. [54] Though she achieved her goal, the Darkhold was later taken from her by the Ghost Rider, who after helping defeating Aida, departed into another dimension, intending to hide the book out of harm's way. [55] Tome of Eldritch Lore: The titular book is the typical example for the Marvel Universe but it's ramped up because it's the original copy. Reading it is likely to melt someone's face or possess them with eldritch power and make them thralls of Chthon. Peter justifying using Reed as webbing for New York City and the infected citizens to keep them from falling apart, causing Reed severe pain and discomfort. Ivanov told Aida that with the help of the Darkhold, they could ensure that the real world would become its replica in the Framework. [18] Due to Aida's creation, a rift in Hell was created. The Spirit of Vengeance inside Robbie Reyes wanted to retrieve the Darkhold to Hell and kill Aida. Reyes passed to the other side and returned to Earth and came after the book. Aida managed to escape with the Darkhold before the Ghost Rider could get his hands on it. Later on, Ivanov, controlling LMDs of himself and Sergei Mishkin, brought the Darkhold to the International Inquiry Committee and told the attendees to read the book, intending for it to corrupt their minds to make them follow his anti-Inhuman crusade.At some point Doctor Doom found a part of the Darkhold that allowed him to cast a spell to access Belasco's Limbo.

[47] The Masters of the Mystic Arts were also aware of the book's existence and its connection to the Demon Chthon. They also knew that the Darkhold corrupted everything and everyone that it touched, and it was a magical object to be afraid of. [3] Iron Man's tie-in sees what was supposed to be an attempt to replace his heart transform into the creation of a self-adaptive suit that would give him a Healing Factor. It's immediately obvious that it's Gone Horribly Right; using al of Tony's skin, brain and even bone to achieve its directive of preserving him, resulting in him becoming the armor. This messes with his perception of reality and ends with Stark beginning the process of turning everyone into iron-suited monsters.By 2023, Agatha Harkness was in possession of the Book of the Damned. She brought it with her when she went to Westview, New Jersey to investigate the Westview Anomaly created by Wanda Maximoff. [25] [26] The book enhanced Harkness' powers allowing her to manipulate the Anomaly without being noticed. [7]
