| HistoryText = Makluans are best known on Earth by their least typical members. Though typically peaceful and noble, a number of Makluans departed their homeworld in search of worlds to conquer. Landing in China, the majority of the crew used their shape-shifting abilities to take on Human guise, hoping to infiltrate their society in order to gather reconnaissance before conquering the planet.

In one possible timeline, the legendary British kingdom of Camelot was destroyed by attacking dragons.
[[Myraddin of Ruta (Earth-616)|Merlin]] and the Lady of the Lake sought to prevent its destruction by projecting the mind of the [[Sir Percy of Scandia (Earth-616)|Black Knight (Sir Percy of Scandia)]] forward in time to the 21st century (2006), and into the body of his descendent, [[Dane Whitman (Earth-616)|Dane Whitman]]. There he enlisted the help of the recently-reformed superhero team [[Excalibur (Earth-616)|Excalibur]]. Using the Lady of the Lake's power, the group was transported back in time days before Camelot's destruction.
The teams then uncovered the fact that numerous Makluans had slain many of Britains native dragons, and that it was they who attacked Camelot. Excalibur returned to their own time after defeating the invaders.

In the 8th century, Fin Fang Foom awoke, but was eventually put back to sleep through use of the same herbs. He subsequently entered into Chinese legend, and his tomb remained guarded well into the the 20th century. His slumber would be interrupted again several times during that century. He was first awakened by teenager Chen Liuchow, who believed the legends of the great dragon, entered his tomb, and tricked him into attacking the nearby communist Chinese before putting him back to sleep. He was at some point captured by the Collector, then relocated to [[Monster Island]] by the [[Harvey Elder (Earth-616)|Mole Man (Harvey Elder)]] before returning to hibernation. The madman [[Aloysius Vault (Earth-616)|Doctor Vault]] again awakened him to have him attack the [[It the Living Colossus (Earth-616)|Living Colossus]].
After returning to sleep, he was again awakened when his body was possessed by the demon [[Aan Taanu (Earth-616)|Aan Taanu]].

At some point, the spirit of the Makluan captain, [[Axonn-Karr (Earth-616)|Axonn-Karr]], in the form of Human Chen Hsu, guided the man who would become the [[Mandarin (Earth-616)|Mandarin]] to the Valley of the Sleeping Dragon. There, the Mandarin found the Makluan starship and its trove of advanced technology (including his signature [[Mandarin's Rings|power rings]]). He also awoke Fin Fang Foom so that he could be used to threaten the Chinese government. Mandarin's scheme was quickly met by [[Anthony Stark (Earth-616)|Iron Man]], but when the remaining dozen other Makluans revealed themselves and finally began their conquest. The Mandarin and Iron Man then banded together to destroy these invaders. In light of the events in medieval Britain & modern China, Fin Fang Foom may be the last Makluan on Earth; of course, with their natural shape-shifting abilities and incredibly long lifespans, it is impossible to say for sure.

About 4500 years before [[Heroic Age (Event)|The Heroic Age]], a group of Makluans crashed landed on [[Earth]]. They were initially treated as gods before [[Homo sapiens|humans]] started hunting them for sport. [[Fin Fang Foom (Earth-97161)|Fin Fang Foom]] was the last remaining of his species. He was given a particular herb indigenous to that region and subsequently slept for decades. It would later be revealed that Foom was simply the last of his generation, and many groupings on Makluan eggs had hatched on Earth.{{r|Avengers vs. Pet Avengers Vol 1 1|4}}
