. On entering Marko finds and holds a huge ruby
, and reads the inscription on the gem aloud: "Whosoever touches this gem shall be granted the power of the Crimson Bands of Cyttorak! Henceforth, you who read these words, shall become ... forevermore ... a human juggernaut!" The gem channels Cyttorak's power into Marko. The transformation causes a cave-in

The Juggernaut explains to the Hulk in a flashback sequence how an entity from his prison dimension reversed the aging process and removed the mystical powers on the proviso that the villain never return. The Hulk aids the Juggernaut in escaping from the base, but attacks when the Juggernaut threatens a civilian. During the battle the Juggernaut's helmet is removed, and he is surprised and defeated by Professor X, Cyclops, and Marvel Girl.

, Tom sends the Juggernaut to capture Madame Web, with the villain destroying several city blocks and ignoring Spider-Man
's best efforts to stop him. The Juggernaut almost kills Web by accident when he removes her from a life support device, and decides to abandon her.

The character also stars in a solo story and the "Eighth Day" storyline, which introduces the entities the Exemplars. The Juggernaut and seven other humans are revealed to have all been empowered and corrupted by mystical entities, and as avatars
enforce their will on Earth. The Juggernaut resists the influence of Cyttorak and when captured by other Exemplars is aided by the superhero team the Avengers

During the World War Hulk
storyline, the Juggernaut's power begins to wane, but by shunning his stepbrother Xavier and returning to his villainous origin is able to restore the link with Cyttorak, becoming powerful enough to hold his own against the Hulk. Despite an attempt by Xavier to reform Marko, he concedes that redemption is impossible.
, Bruce Banner bombs Juggernaut's house to initiate a confrontation between Skaar and the Juggernaut. Skaar manages to win his first fight by throwing the Juggernaut into open space, proving to his father he has the ability to cunningly use his physical strength.
During The Gauntlet storyline, Spider-Man finds the Juggernaut unconscious. The government comes along and transports the Juggernaut to a secure facility. Spider-Man sneaks into the facility to ask the Juggernaut who did this to him. Then a new Captain Universe
breaks into the room and claims he's there to slay the Juggernaut. Spider-Man learns that Captain Universe is a man named William Nguyen who wants revenge on Juggernaut for ruining his life during his previous fight with Spider-Man
over Madame Web. When he insists on trying to kill Juggernaut instead of fixing the tectonic plates beneath New York City, the Uni-Power leaves Nguyen and enters the Juggernaut. The Juggernaut, as Captain Universe, repairs the damage to the tectonic plates that was caused by him during the same rampage that ruined Nguyen's life.
Following the Siege
storyline, Juggernaut is shown at The Raft
at the start of the Heroic Age
storyline - weakened, since Cyttorak apparently took his temporary empowerment by the Uni-Power, as an affront; and withheld part of his "blessing". Following Luke Cage
's appointment as leader of the Thunderbolts
, Cain is brought up for suggestion for the program. While Cage is initially against him joining, Professor X telepathically contacts Luke and asks him to reconsider, believing he has a chance at redemption despite what he previously told Cain. Juggernaut agrees to do whatever Luke says, partly because he is now suffused with nanomachines which can affect him in his weakened state.
During the Fear Itself
storyline, one of the seven Hammers of the Worthy lands near Juggernaut. Juggernaut is able to lift it and becomes Kurrth: Breaker of Stone. His transformation was enough to level the Raft.
, he was empowered with magical energies and transformed into an immortal avatar
for the entity in question. As the Juggernaut, Marko possesses superhuman strength, being capable of shattering mountains, lifting and using buildings as weapons, and extreme durability.
His durability is amplified by a mystical force field
that grants him additional invulnerability to any physical attack (at its maximum). Even when the force field was temporarily absorbed by Thor's hammer, the Juggernaut's natural durability still proved to be great enough to withstand blows from Thor. The Juggernaut is described as physically unstoppable once in motion, does not tire from physical activity and is able to survive without food, water, or oxygen.
It is possible for an opponent with sufficient physical strength of their own to turn the Juggernaut's unstoppable movement against him, by redirecting his motion so he gets stranded in a position in which he has no purchase; both the Hulk and his son, Skaar, have managed this feat.
The character is vulnerable to mental attacks
, a weakness that has been exploited via the removal of his helmet. The Juggernaut has circumvented this weakness on occasion by wearing a metal skullcap
inside his main helmet. If Juggernaut loses his helmet he can recreate it by touching certain materials (as long as he possesses the full power of the gem).

stars the son of the Juggernaut, Zane Yama. Yama joins the future Avengers, and is eventually reunited with his father Cain Marko, who was trapped in an alternate dimension.
In a reality where Cain successfully defeated the X-Men in their first battle, the Sentinels were thus released in mass numbers without the X-Men to oppose them, resulting in Earth being destroyed in their subsequent nuclear assault. Although Cain eventually managed to destroy the Sentinels through sheer persistence, he was left in a post-apocalyptic wasteland with all other human beings having been killed by the radiation that had been released by the Sentinels' attacks.
imprint title Ultimate X-Men
features an alternate universe
version of the Juggernaut, who was originally part of the Weapon X program and has ties to Rogue, having grown up in the same trailer park
. At some point in his life he was incarcerated by Weapon X and forced to act as a living weapon under the direction of Col. John Wraith. Juggernaut was part of the strike force that took out the X-Men, forcing them into Weapon X as well. Cain and Rogue shared a cell while both were forced to serve Weapon X. When The Brotherhood of Mutant Supremacy
removed the security implants that were prohibiting the mutants from leaving their cells, Juggernaut fought for his freedom. After the entire ordeal, Cain was offered a place with both Xavier's X-Men and The Brotherhood. Cain chose The Brotherhood, but later left the team for parts unknown.
Cain was captured by SHIELD. However, en route to a prison designed to contain the Hulk, there was an accident and Cain broke free. Retrieving his helmet, he began to track down Rogue, who was a thief along with Gambit

His durability is amplified by a mystical force field

that grants him additional invulnerability to any physical attack (at its maximum). Even when the force field was temporarily absorbed by Thor's hammer, the Juggernaut's natural durability still proved to be great enough to withstand blows from Thor. The Juggernaut is described as physically unstoppable once in motion, does not tire from physical activity and is able to survive without food, water, or oxygen.
It is possible for an opponent with sufficient physical strength of their own to turn the Juggernaut's unstoppable movement against him, by redirecting his motion so he gets stranded in a position in which he has no purchase; both the Hulk and his son, Skaar, have managed this feat.
The character is vulnerable to mental attacks

What If?
In a reality where Xavier acquired the Crimson Gem rather than Cain, Cain joined forces with Magneto and Xavier's disillusioned students- the X-Men believing that Xavier's more ruthless methods contradicted his alleged 'dream' of peaceful co-existence- using a telepathy-blocking headband to prevent Xavier realising what he was up to until they were able to expel the Juggernaut into space, although Cain was subsequently killed by Magneto after he outlived his usefulness.In a reality where Cain successfully defeated the X-Men in their first battle, the Sentinels were thus released in mass numbers without the X-Men to oppose them, resulting in Earth being destroyed in their subsequent nuclear assault. Although Cain eventually managed to destroy the Sentinels through sheer persistence, he was left in a post-apocalyptic wasteland with all other human beings having been killed by the radiation that had been released by the Sentinels' attacks.
