A humanoid alien race originating from the fourth planet of the D'Bari
system, formerly located in the Shi'ar Empire. A D'Bari space craft crashed on
Earth thousands of years ago. Amongst the weapons that the surviving pilot had,
was a gun that paralysed any opponent. In ancient Greece this activity added to
the legend of Medusa. Over the centuries the alien moved around the globe
eventually reaching America where he used the gun on the founding Avengers. The
newly revived Captain America tracked the alien down and negotiated the release
of the team in return for helping him retrieve and repair his craft. Years
later most of the D’Bari race died when Dark Phoenix replenished itself by destroying
their sun. Approximately five billion D'Bari died when their star went nova.
A
small number of D'Bari not in the galaxy at the time survived.
