Notes: 

The Stranger has had several origins over the years. Fantastic Four (1st series) #116 identified him as the gestalt consciousness of the Eternals of Gigantus. In Quasar #16 he claimed that was a lie, but it was seemingly confirmed again in Silver Surfer: Ghost Light #2. The Stranger also sometimes presents as a cosmic-level abstract entity, with the Living Tribunal implying the Stranger was a related aspect to him in Silver Surfer (3rd series) #31.
