When Gamora Joins Infinity Watch

The Living Tribunal is a powerful being as old as the Universe itself. It acts as a protector of the multiverse, preventing the imbalance of power to be controlled by one universe over the others. 

In order to protect the cosmic balance the Living Tribunal will act to prevent overwhelming imbalances of power between universes or of an imbalance of good and evil within a universe.

When Adam Warlock gains control of the Infinity Gems, he becomes near omnipotent and is driven mad with power that he now possesses. This was too much power for one being to wield according to the cosmic laws.

Thanks to the Living Tribunal, Warlock was not permitted to use the infinity gems so he creates the Infinity Watch to guard these powerful stones. Warlock chooses from the most trusted people in the galaxy to help keep the Infinity Gems from the wrong hands.

Warlock divided the gems between five allies he thought he could trust:

• Moondragon (Mind Gem)
• Drax the Destroyer (Power Gem)
• Gamora (Time Gem)
• Pip (Space Gem)
• Adam Warlock (Soul Gem)
• Thanos (Reality Gem)

The Infinity Watch were tasked with safeguarding the individual gems. 

Gamora was charged with protecting the Time Gem although she did not agree with his choices. She grudgingly agreed assuming he had a cosmic intelligence.

The individual members of the Infinity Watch all got captured by Man-Beast. This led to Warlock deciding that the individual members needed to remain together to work as a team.

Following their rescue by Warlock, The Infinity Watch were assembles and created a base on Monster Island, the territory of Mole Man.
