History

That does it. That enough. No more Mr. Nice Dog. Now Cosmo will hurt everyone.

— Cosmo

Cosmo was a former test animal of the Soviet Space Program. He was launched into Earth's orbit as part of an experiment but he drifted off into space at some point during the 1960's, arriving in Knowhere and at some point being mutated, he eventually came to be part of The Collector's exhibition.

He witnessed Star-Lord, Gamora, Groot and Rocket give the Orb to The Collector. After Carina exploded and destroyed the room with the Gem, Cosmo escaped unharmed, trotting out of the collector's building while the Collector was still unconscious after the blast. At some point he returned to The Collector and woke him up by licking him on the face, to which Howard the Duck commented that it was gross.

Cosmo met a distraught Nova shortly after that. He tells Nova that he's on Knowhere, a city right inside the severed head of a giant Celestial. After being as Nova's companion, the Nova Prime made the dog the Chief of security on Knowhere. Since then, Cosmo has helped both the Nova Corps and the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Powers and Abilities

Powers

• Telekinesis: Cosmo was an incredibly gifted telekinetic, and was capable of amazingly precise use of his telekinesis.

• Telepathy: He can read and manipulate the minds of others and even higher order animals. He has demonstrated the following specialized uses:
  • Telepathic Defense: He can manifest his telepathy in a number of defensive ways.
    • Telepathic Cloak: He can mask his presence and the use of his abilities from being detected by other psions and psychic entities. He can extend these defenses to others around him as well. Cloaking via telepathy is not perfect and powerful telepaths may notice and 'see' through this ability.
    • Psionic Shield: Ability to erect a psychic shield for protection of himself and of others minds.
  • Telepathic Illusions: He can create realistic and very detailed illusions and cause people to experience events which are not actually occurring.
    • Telepathic Camouflage: He can alter the apparent physical appearance of himself and other people by altering the perceptions of those around him. This can go so far as to make other people believe that the camouflaged people are not there e.g. invisible.
  • Telepathic Manipulation: He can manipulate other people's minds easily, achieving a variety of effects.
    • Mind Control: He can control the thoughts and actions of others.
    • Mental Paralysis: He can induce temporary mental or physical paralysis.
    • Mental Amnesia: He can erase any awareness of particular memories or cause total amnesia.
    • Mental Sedating: Can telepathically "sedate" his victims so that, if already rendered unconscious, they remain so for as long as he continues to "sedate" them.
  • Psionic Blast: He can project psionic force bolts which have no physical effects but which can affect a victim's mind so as to cause the victim pain or unconsciousness, force then to suffer from a stroke, and turning someone brain-dead.
  • Mental Detection: He can sense the presence of another superhuman within a small but as yet undefined radius of himself by perceiving the distinctive mental radiations emitted by such a being.
• Extended Longevity: Cosmo is decades older than the normal maximum life expectancy of a dog.
