Perrikus

Perrikus is a Dark God, a member of the tyrannical race known as the Dark Gods who hail from the far reaches of the cosmos. Ancient enemies of Asgard, the Dark Gods once defeated the Asgardians and captured Odin, making Perrikus one of Thor's most formidable cosmic adversaries.

Few villains make an entrance quite like Perrikus — a John Romita Jr. creation who crashed into Marvel's cosmic mythology with Thor #4 in 1998, arriving at a moment when the Thunder God's world was being reimagined for a new generation. Over a publishing history stretching nearly three decades, this dark and formidable figure has kept extraordinary company, sharing pages with Thor Odinson, Odin, and even the cosmic power of Phoenix and Jean Grey. With a presence in the All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z, Perrikus has earned his place in Marvel's official mythology — a testament to the impression he left on readers who encountered him in those late-'90s Thor stories and beyond.
