History:

(Thor the Mighty Avenger#7 (fb) - BTS)  - Heimdall was instructed by Odin not to tell Thor of the great fight that Thor had with Odin, who had banished his son to Earth with no memory of what had happened, and to stop Thor from entering Asgard. Around that time, Heimdall could also adopt the form of a dragon. 

(Thor the Mighty Avenger#7) - Transporting himself to Bifrost using the mystical tome the Bifrosticon, the exiled Thor found himself before Heimdall at the base of the rainbow bridge. The two initially joked about fighting and women before Heimdall firmly told Thor that he could not cross Bifrost. Thor attacked and Heimdall transformed initially into a giant flaming form, then into a giant dragon and buried Thor under rocky rubble. Back in his human form, Heimdall roused Thor. Both defiant, Heimdall threatened to transport Jane Foster, whom Thor loved, so far away that Thor could not find her. Thor relented and Heimdall suggested that Thor return to Earth and Foster.

Earth-10091's Heimdall, when in "human" form, had darker skin than almost all other versions, paralleling the Thor movie of 2011.
