History
The Beyonders were a powerful race of cosmic beings that inhabited the Multiverse. They were known by many names such as the Ivory Kings and as the White Lords from Wild Space. (New Avengers v3 #30)
One of their creations was the Library of Worlds that existed outside the observable Multiverse and was where the order of the Black Swans settled as their home. (New Avengers v3 #5)
The Beyonder was noted as being a child unit that adapted his appearance to what he perceived and crunched the universe to make it into a toy. (New Avengers v3 #30)
During the Incursions, Reed Richards and Tony Stark sent fellow Illuminati member Hank Pym into the Multiverse in order to find the cause of the great catastrophe by seeking out Rabum Alal. Instead, he encountered a superstation containing the refugee Builders from hundreds of dead universes that were seeking to stop the collapse of the Multiverse. The Builders through a manufactured Manifold tracked the location of a number of Mapmakers and battled them where they salvaged its core in order to track its source signal back to its source. This proved to had been a trap with the Builders being destroyed by the Beyonders. Similarly, the Captain Britain Corps themselves sought to stop the collapse of all realities and captured a Mapmaker in order to draw out the threat only for the Ivory Kings to send a large number of their forces to assault the Starlight Citadel who destroyed the Corps. The Beyonders proceeded with destroying the cosmic beings from across the Multiverse such as destroying the Celestial hosts, battling Eternity and defeating the Living Tribunal. (New Avengers v3 #30) From the Library of Worlds, Molecule Man within the Library of Worlds noted that the Ivory King were waiting and preparing when a group of Avengers confronted them. (New Avengers v1 #31).
Overview
Beyonders were universally adaptive and harmonically transitional who could not be fully comprehended by humans. Such was their power that they were not constrained by space or energy or anything within the realm of reason. (New Avengers v3 #30) According to the Molecule Man, they were akin to gods and it required a god to kill them. (New Avengers v1 #31)
