UATU'S BOSS
Real Name: Unrevealed
Identity/Class: Extra-terrestrial (Watcher), 16th Century (off-Earth)
Occupation: Watcher
Group Membership: Possibly a member of the High Tribunal (see comments)
Affiliations: Uatu, other Watchers
Enemies: None
Known Relatives: None
Aliases: None
Base of Operations: The Watcher's homeworld
First Appearance: 1602 #8 (June #2004)
Powers/Abilities: He likely possessed all the usual powers of a Watcher, and possibly more than typical.
History: (1602 #8)- After Uatu had subtly interfered with events to help restore the timestream, reverting Earth-616 back to normal, this Watcher appeared before Uatu. He told him that the Watchers were shamed that he involved himself in events, but they knew it was necessary and were proud that he had helped save Creation. The High Tribunal, in order that he may remember his shame and they may not forget his triumph, presented Uatu with a pocket dimension containing Earth 1602 AD (aka Earth-311).
Comments: Created by Neil Gaiman, Andy Kubert and Richard Isanove.
He was Uatu's superior over 400 years ago, but that's plenty of time for things to have changed.
I get the impression that the High Tribunal is, or was, a group of Watchers that ranked higher than the others. A governing council or something. They're only mentioned, but they'd seem to be pretty powerful. I suppose it is also possible that he is referring to the Living Tribunal, since this event was certainly on the scale he'd be involved in.
A Watcher who serves under the authority of the High Tribunal was responsible for stripping Uatu of his powers in Fantastic Four I#400-- perhaps this was the same Watcher? --Prime Eternal
