[edit] Fictional character biography
Garguax is the exiled leader of an unnamed alien planet. Arriving on Earth in Doom Patrol #91, he attempts to conquer the planet with his advanced technology. The Doom Patrol defeats him by blowing up his spaceship.
Garguax returns in Doom Patrol #96, this time allying himself with the Brotherhood of Evil. Despite the assistance of his new allies, Garguax is once again defeated.
Garguax' final appearance is in Doom Patrol vol. 2, #17-18. During the Invasion! storyline Garguax, after his services are rejected by the alien invasion force, joins forces with the Doom Patrol to defend the Earth. After the alien invasion is stopped, Garguax tries to double cross his old foes. The Chief destroys Garguax's spaceship with a laser beam, killing the alien in the process.
[edit] Powers and abilities
Garguax has no special powers, and is quite slow in Earth's gravity, due to his large size and obesity. Garguax has access to the advanced technology of his homeworld, including an army of androids known as the Plastic Men.
