Plot by Englehart and Milgrom, script by Englehart.
The "Soul Gem" is later identified as the Mind Gem in the Captain Marvel entry of the All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe Update # 4. At the time of the original story, the Infinity Gems were not named or differentiated, and were known collectively as "Soul Gems". This is the first story to reveal there were six in total. It appears in this story as a red sphere about a meter tall, though it was green in its one-panel preview in Captain Marvel #41. It next appears in Avengers Annual #7 as an orange oval the same size and shape as Warlock's and the others. In the flashback to the Gem's discovery in this issue, it appears to have been much smaller at some point, suggesting it has some capability to change size and shape. Probably color too. The Mind Gem will eventually be coded as the blue one of the set. |
