| Captain America
|
- Captain America: It's nice to have another genuine force for good on our side.
- Adam Warlock: My soul is not as pure as most may believe.
- Captain America: There's darkness inside all of us, son. Understanding it is what makes us human.
- Adam Warlock: You are wise beyond your many years, Captain…
|
|
- Adam Warlock: You have a light that radiates from within you, Captain.
- Captain America: Coming from you, that really says something, Adam.
- Adam Warlock: It could guide us to victory. Be careful not let this conflict snuff it out.
- Captain America: I've been doing this a long time. No one's managed to extinguish me yet.

| Doctor Strange
|
- Doctor Strange: Warlock is a curious name for one with no arcane powers.
- Adam Warlock: I didn't choose it.
- Doctor Strange: No one chooses their birth name. But after that, you may call yourself what you like.
- Adam Warlock: I like Adam Warlock. But maybe I'll start calling myself Sorcerer Supreme.

| Emma Frost
|
- Adam Warlock: You shine like a diamond, but your soul is so... empty...
- Emma Frost: Obviously, you've been speaking to my therapist. But I'm not sure that's relevant right now...
- Adam Warlock: If we aren't strong within, even the toughest surface begins to show its cracks.
- Emma Frost: Not with the right amount of makeup, dear.

Emma Frost
on Hellfire Gala maps
|
- Adam Warlock: I am not usually one to attend such lavish celebrations...
- Emma Frost: And yet here you are, covered in gold from head to toe.
- Adam Warlock: I cannot help that fact. I was born this way.
- Emma Frost: You and I both, darling. We have more in common than you'd like to believe.

| Groot
|
- Adam Warlock: What concerns you so, my floral friend?
- Groot: I… am Groot… [worried]

| Hawkeye
|
- Hawkeye: Oh good, the perfect human's here to make me feel inadequate.
- Adam Warlock: You were already doing that before I arrived…
- Hawkeye: Ouch, got me.
- Adam Warlock: Perhaps a good fight will improve your self-image.
|
|
| Hela
|
- Adam Warlock: What a strange alliance. We should be at odds, you and I.
- Hela: Why do you say that, man of gold?
- Adam Warlock: I seek to save souls. You seek to collect them.
- Hela: Ah, but if they all ceased to exist, we would both be out of business, would we not?

|
| Bruce Banner
|
- Bruce Banner: I remember the scientists who made you, Adam. They were not good people.

- Adam Warlock: What good thing ever is?

|
Hulk
on Klyntar maps
|

- Hulk: Hulk uses his anger for good. Most of the time.
- Adam Warlock: For the sake of the universe, I truly hope this is one of those occasions.

|
| Invisible Woman
|
- Adam Warlock: I am happy you are here, Susan. You have been a true friend since I first emerged from my cocoon.
- Invisible Woman: You've certainly come a long way since the Enclave created you, Adam.
- Adam Warlock: They meant to use me as a pawn in their own wicked schemes. But I had a much higher calling…
- Invisible Woman: Power like yours can change worlds. I'm glad you decided that it should change them for the better.
|
|

|
| Loki
|
- Loki: Ah, the so-called perfect human!
- Adam Warlock: I never called myself that.
- Loki: I hope you detected my irony.
|
|
- Adam Warlock: You are a curious one, Loki Laufeyson.
- Loki: So I have been told, by the All-Father and countless others.
- Adam Warlock: There is such good within you. Why do you hide it behind a veil of darkness?
- Loki: I play the role I must to prevail. And it seems the next act is about to begin…
|
|
Loki
on Yggsgard maps
|
- Adam Warlock: It takes more than a crown and a throne to make a king.
- Loki: We have both adorned ourselves in gold. What have you beneath that shimmering skin that makes you any better than I?
- Adam Warlock: A soul.
- Loki: …Fair enough.
|
|
| Magik
|
- Adam Warlock: Your soul is divided.
- Magik: Yeah. Part of it's a sword now.

- Magik: How about you sense your own business, perfect human?
|
|
| Mantis
|

- Adam Warlock: You shall soon enough… one way or another…
|
|
| Mister Fantastic
|
- Adam Warlock: What is it that you seek here, Doctor Richards?
- Mister Fantastic: The same as always, Adam. A universal truth that can unite us all and bring an end to this madness.
- Adam Warlock: I see. Be wary, may friend. Blind faith in anything, even science, often leads to catastrophic consequences.

|
Mister Fantastic
on Eternal Night maps
|
- Adam Warlock: I have never seen the Earth shrouded in such darkness…
- Mister Fantastic: Dracula used the Darkhold to bend the laws of nature themselves.
- Adam Warlock: If the sun will no longer rise, we will have to find other ways to bring the light.
- Mister Fantastic: If anyone can mange that, Adam, it's you.
|
|
| Moon Knight
|
- Moon Knight: Look at you, glimmering like a golden sun. Khonshu wouldn't like you one bit.
- Adam Warlock: Believe it or not, I have a dark side. Or at least I did, until I expelled it and it became its own being.
- Moon Knight: Wish I could get the voices out of my head that easy. Maybe you can teach me a few tricks after all of this is over.

Namor
on Symbiotic Surface
|
- Adam Warlock: Should the King in Black reclaim his throne, the results could be truly disastrous.
- Namor: Why should I care how this Knull chooses to rule his worthless planet of symbiotes?
- Adam Warlock: It is not what he plans to do on Klyntar that should concern us. Rather, what he could do on countless worlds beyond.
- Namor: If he dares to threaten my people, he will find himself facing the full fury of a true king!
|
|
Psylocke
on Klyntar maps
|
- Adam Warlock: I was told that you were born to hunt monsters. Why do you give pause?
- Psylocke: I have fought Orochi before. But it was nothing like this…
- Adam Warlock: A single symbiote is one thing. But a whole planet is another matter entirely.
- Psylocke: We must slay the Great Snake in its nest… before its children can devour us…
|
|
| Rocket Raccoon
|
- Rocket Raccoon: Well, well. Look who's back to save the entire flarkin' universe.
- Adam Warlock: You say that as if it is a bad thing.
- Rocket Raccoon: Did I? Huh. I guess sarcasm is my default setting. You are gonna save the universe, though, right?
- Adam Warlock: No. We will save it. Together.

|
Scarlet Witch
on Wakanda maps
|
- Scarlet Witch: What T'Challa has achieved here is nothing short of perfection.
- Adam Warlock: Take it from a man who was created to be perfect: There's no such thing.
- Scarlet Witch: I suppose you're right. And where there are flaws…
- Adam Warlock: …there are always those eager to exploit them.
|
|
Spider-Man
on Tokyo 2099 maps
|
- Adam Warlock: This Web of Life and Destiny… Are you its protector?
- Spider-Man: One of them, I guess. But there are, like, thousands of other Spider-Folks out there putting in the work, too.
- Adam Warlock: You would be best to summon them all. I have a feeling we will need them.

| Star-Lord
|
- Star-Lord: Warlock, old buddy! You look good. Did you get some work done?
- Adam Warlock: I recently emerged from a regenerative cocoon.
- Star-Lord: You gotta hook me up with one of those, bro! I could use a serious tune up.
- Adam Warlock: Perhaps I should focus my cosmic power on more important matters…
|
|
- Star-Lord: You missed a lot while you were wrapped up in that cocoon, old buddy.
- Adam Warlock: I have learned all I need to know, Peter Quill. You need not regale me with your tales of personal glory.
- Star-Lord: Oh, yeah, okay, but uh… but is it cool If I do it anyway? It's kinda my thing.
|
|
- Adam Warlock: This conflict is growing more dire with every new challenge that we face.
- Star-Lord: I bet you're wishing you'd just stayed in that cocoon of yours, eh, Adam?
- Adam Warlock: I have never been one to hide from matters of great cosmic importance, Peter Quill.
- Star-Lord: Ah. Well, if you're not planning to use it, could I grab a quick nap? Saving the universe is exhausting!
|
|
Star-Lord
on Klyntar maps
|
- Star-Lord: Just curious… Ugh, how did you end up here on Klyntar, Adam?
- Adam Warlock: I was adrift in my cocoon when cosmic forces summoned me to this world.
- Star-Lord: Same. Yeah, except, I mean, we were in our ship. And then we, you know, sorta crashed here.
- Adam Warlock: Then the fates brought us together. We would be wise to answer their call.
|
|
| Thor
|
- Thor: So you are the perfect human?
- Adam Warlock: I gather that was the intent.
- Thor: Typical mortals, to believe that despite their imperfections they could perfect themselves.

|
Venom
on Klyntar maps
|
- Adam Warlock: You are the spawn of Knull, are you not?
- Venom: He may have created us, but if we have our way, we will end him.
- Adam Warlock: Ah… Then let me join you in your crusade.
- Venom: You want in, goldie? Follow us. But watch your step.
|
|
- Venom: Were you the one who awakened Knull, Warlock?
- Adam Warlock: Quite the opposite. His consciousness jarred me from my slumber.
- Venom: Either way, there's no more time for rest. War is on the horizon.
- Adam Warlock: And this is where the fate of the universe will be decided.

Winter Soldier
on Hydra Charteris Base maps
|
- Adam Warlock: I was created in a lab, but it was nothing like this.

|
|
| Wolverine
|
- Wolverine: What the hell are you lookin' at, bub?

- Adam Warlock: We all have dark sides. Even I. Just ask the Magus…
