Biography[]
Past[]
The Conquer Worm was one of the three-hundred and sixty-nine Ogdru Hem, the spawn of the ancient Ogdru Jahad. The being was defeated by God's angels, but the only the Worm's body was destroyed, while it's spirit was banished into outer space.
The spirit was discovered by the Nazis in 1939, who wanted to contact the being and use it to defeat the Allies. The Nazis send the body of recently-deceased Dr. Ernst Oeming, hoping the spirit would use it as a vessel. The corpse was sent into space with a capsule, but was halted by legendary vigilante Lobster Johnson.
Hellboy[]
Sixty two years later, Dr. Herman von Klempt managed to get Oeming's corpse, now possessed by the Conquer Worm, back to Earth. The creature was released from the corpse and quickly started turning humans into frog monsters, which it then consumed. The worm's plan was to consume all humans and then summon its parent, the Ogdru-Jahad.
The Worm was killed by Hellboy, Roger the Homunculus and the Ghost of the Lobster, using an alien battery.
Trivia[]
- The creature was inspired from the poem of the same name by Edgar Allan Poe.
