She’s undoubtedly the most famous opera singer in the world. Chased by journalists from around the world, every one of her recitals at La Scala in Milan, or at the Metropolitan in New York have unleashed passions. Of course, I am talking about Bianca Castafiore.

Some superheroes draw their powers from precious stones. Well, gems, to be more precise. Gems that are endowed with the power to control time or space, or even the mind.

This is the saga of an out of this world piece of jewelry that was first published in an American comic book in the early 70’s, and now brought to the silver screen by Marvel Studios. Six primordial stones which, after they have been gathered into a gauntlet, endow their owner with a super powerful weapon called the Infinity Gauntlet.
