'''Mangog''' is a powerful and destructive villainous monster appearing in Marvel comics as a enemy of the Mighty Thor. He is the physical manifestation of a billion lives that were slain by Odin and seeks to claim his revenge by slaughtering those around him.
'''Mangog''', or "'''The Mangog'''" as it originally referred to itself, is the sum total of the hatred of a billion billion beings that were once killed by the ruler of Asgard and the Norse Gods, Odin. Imprisoned deep beneath Asgard, Mangog is accidentally freed by the Rock Troll Ulik, and goes on to wage war against Odin and the other Norse Gods on several occasions. Mangog proves to be physically unstoppable, and is usually only defeated by exploiting Mangog's dependence on psychic energies (such as hatred, fear, or feelings of devotion) felt by other sentient beings to sustain itself. Without such a source, Mangog shrinks to near nothingness.
 
   
  +
==History==
While usually acting independently, Mangog also assists one of the [[Thanosi]] clones of the Titan [[Thanos (Marvel)|Thanos]] in a quest for universal domination, but is ultimately stopped by the Thunder God Thor. Thor eventually ends the threat of Mangog entirely: having inherited the Odin Force, Thor simply dissolves an attacking Mangog with a wave of his hand.

*'''Superhuman Strength''': Mangog possess vast superhuman strength, the sum totality of a billion billion beings. His physical strength easily by far exceeds that of Thor. Hence, he is easily far above the class 1000 tons level, capable of lifting milions if not bilions of tons.

However, despite his tremendous power, Mangog is not completely invincible. Mangog's powers, in fact his very life itself, are connected to the energies that he feeds from. Mangog will shrink or seemingly vanish if deprived of those mystical and psionic energies.

Mangog, it seems, has become about more than just one wronged race. He is the judgement for those who cannot be judged by man. The Mangog is the ultimate judgement of all the gods.
~ Malekith describing Mangog and his purpose.

Mangog is a powerful and destructive villainous monster appearing in Marvel comics as a enemy of the Mighty Thor. He is the physical manifestation of a billion lives that were slain by Odin and seeks to claim his revenge by slaughtering those around him.

History

Mangog, or "The Mangog" as it originally referred to itself, is the sum total of the hatred of a billion billion beings that were once killed by the ruler of Asgard and the Norse Gods, Odin. Imprisoned deep beneath Asgard, Mangog is accidentally freed by the Rock Troll Ulik, and goes on to wage war against Odin and the other Norse Gods on several occasions. Mangog proves to be physically unstoppable, and is usually only defeated by exploiting Mangog's dependence on psychic energies (such as hatred, fear, or feelings of devotion) felt by other sentient beings to sustain itself. Without such a source, Mangog shrinks to near nothingness.

While usually acting independently, Mangog also assists one of the Thanosi clones of the Titan Thanos in a quest for universal destruction, but is ultimately stopped by the Thunder God Thor by shooting a bolt of Anti-Force inside the monster's mouth. Thor during the final Ragnarok eventually ends the threat of Mangog entirely: having inherited the Odin Force and the Knowledge of the Runes, Thor simply dissolves an attacking Mangog with a wave of his hand.

Months, perhaps even years later, amoral business-man (and possibly demi-god) Adam Mann constructs the Mysticator, a magical generator which taps into an otherdimensional source of energy to give him immense power. But when the generator is overloaded by the mace of Thunderstrike, it is revealed the source of its energy is actually the Mangog, which breeches through to Earth to renew his battle with Thor. Thor demands to know how it is possible that the Mangog lives again, and the monster proclaims that he can never be ultimately destroyed - he is living hatred, he feeds on it and grows, and will endure as long as hate exists.

The Mangog was banished, tumbling into a star; but it was already feared he would eventually return.

Years later, during a contest between Jane Foster wielding the power of Thor and the spiteful gods of the Shi'ar, the latter unleashed the 'ultimate judgment', a threat feared even by the immortal gods; it was soon revealed that this was the Mangog, who now came to devastate Asgardia.

His power burned greater than ever, propelled by indignance at the capricious ways of the gods.

When he confronted Jane Foster, he dismissed her as she was not a god, but a mortal wielding the power of one, and therefore not subject to his revenge; but she stood up for the gods, in the end binding the Mangog with the unbreakable bond Gleipnir to the hammer Mjölnir, casting it into the heart of the Sun; the Mangog being unable to heft the hammer, he would be trapped forever.

However, it remains to be seen whether even this can stop the entity for good.
