Nebulos is a fictional character in the Marvel Universe.

Nebulous is an extra-dimensional being, the ruler of the Planets Perilous. He once possessed the "Staff of Polar Power", which absorbed evil magical energy.

Nebulos encountered Doctor Strange and Victoria Bentley, who had been banished from Earth to another dimension by Baron Mordo. Nebulos commanded Strange to take hold of his Staff of Polar Power, which placed him under Nebulos' control. Strange was sent back to Earth to battle Mordo, absorbing Mordo's power into the staff. Strange was able to banish Mordo to another dimension, but was then pulled back to the Planets Perilous by Nebulos. The staff returned to Nebolus' possession at his whim.

The evil absorbed from Baron Mordo into the staff attracted the attention of the Living Tribunal. The Tribunal discerned that he must destroy the staff, and battled Nebulos, who threatened to release the concentrated evil contained in the staff. The Tribunal used his power to begin destroying Nebulos' entire home planet, but Nebulos still refused to hand over the staff. Strange was able to wrest away the staff, just as Nebulos was buried by an avalanche and seemingly killed.^[1]
