The Infinity Gems (originally referred to as Soul Gems and later as Infinity Stones) are six fictional gems appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The gems (Mind, Power, Reality, Soul, Space, and Time) are named after the aspect of existence they represent. Later storylines and media adaptations have featured additional gems. Each gem can grant the wielder a variety of powers in accordance to the aspect of existence they represent. Multiple gems can be wielded at the same time, and, when all six are wielded at once, they turn the wielder into a god-like being, allowing them to perform virtually any feat imaginable.
