MAIN

ARKON (Unique) (bad)
An Imperion from the extra-dimensional world of Polemachus, Arkon the Magnificent learned his planet was doomed - the only way to save it was to recharge its rings by an atomic explosion. Arkon manipulated the Scarlet Witch into transporting himself to Earth, kidnapping her and a group of atomic scientists who built him an atomic device. The Avengers managed to stabilize Polemachus before he could detonate it. Arkon's militaristic tendencies drive him to conquer other worlds - almost causing war between three extradimensional worlds. Despite this, Arkon has also sought help from the heroes of Earth such as Black Knight, Storm and Photon. Arkon currently rules Polemachus with his love, the villainess Thundra by his side. Arkon is an excellent combatant who throws thunderbolts that cause devastating explosions and other effects.
