This is one of those questions that’s highly insignificant. But it keeps bugging me and I’m about to go totally apeshit.

Back in 1992, Marvel published **Warlock and the Infinity Watch**. In the first issue, Warlock has the Infinity Gauntlet and is on trial. The judge is the Living Tribunal, and the jury is some of the most powerful beings in the universe, like Galactus, Eternity, etc.

There is one planet-like being present, but it’s not Ego the Living Planet. It’s some other living planet, and I can’t remember its name! I think it’s Eon, or Eog, or something like that, but Google searches don’t match up. WHAT IS ITS NAME? AGGGHHH!

I think it may have been Epoch who was Eon’s offspring? I’ve been trying to confirm online but can’t find any good source. I have the comic in a box somewhere around here but I can’t find it.

I have the issue and I think it was Eon.  
I haven’t found a pic online yet, but Eon was a brown stump with a face on one side, a giant eye elsewhere, and a large tuft of hair.

Imagine if Picasso and Dali made a Christmas tree together.

Here’s [Eon](http://www.antaninet.it/marvel-universe/e/eon.jpg), plus another, later image of [url=http://digilander.libero.it/Abendsen/images/Epoch.jpg]Epoch[/url when she was older. I’m sure it was one of the two, but I don’t recall which one.

I finally found the issue! It was Epoch. The one in **Some Guy’s** [link](http://digilander.libero.it/Abendsen/images/Epoch.jpg).
