Powers and Abilities
Oblivion possesses cosmic powers which he can use for various effects. Originally Oblivion only had dominance over creatures who did not die, but were wiped out from existence (due to a time paradox or being hit by the Ultimate Nullifier for example), while his counterpart Death was set over the actual dead. In his recent appearances though, Oblivion has used Deathurge and Doorman as "Angels of Death", sending them to bring him the souls of creatures who have actually died.
