History[]
Earth made first contact with the D'Bari during the onset of the Modern Age of Heroes in the form of an alien named Vuk. Vuk came to Earth where his space ship crash landed, burying him in the Earth for a considerable amount of time. When he finally surfaced, he was perceived as a threat and began using his matter-transmutation ray to turn people into stone. Vuk encountered the Atlantean nobleman Prince Namor and entered into an accord with him. As his ally, Vuk attacked Namor's foes, the Avengers, turning them into stone as well. The recently awakened World War II hero, Captain America, convinced Vuk that he turned his newfound comrades back to normal, he would help him find a way to repair his space craft. Once his ship was operationable again, Vuk departed from the planet Earth. [1]
Several years later, the evil cosmic entity known as Dark Phoenix flew through the D'Bari sun and absorbed it's power, causing it to go super-nova, eradicating billions of D'Bari. The race was rendered virtually extinct, but a lucky few, including Vuk, managed to escape the carnage. [2]
