History:
(Astonishing Tales#8/3) - On the night of Midsummer's Eve, Dr. Doom summoned
Mephisto, continuing his annual challenge to free his mother's soul. Mephisto
created Kagrok, promising to free Cynthia von Doom if he could defeat Kagrok.
The magical creature attacked Doom savagely, weathering any attack Doom could
mount. Though the combat specified fighting with just their strength, Doom
reasoned that man's greatest strength was his mind, and as his mind had created
his armor, he generated a force field to hold Kagrok off. The field withstood
Kagrok's fist blow, but his magical power enabled him to shatter the field with
his second, and Doom fell, defeated. Mephisto then took Kagrok and vanished.
