History:
(Howard the Duck V#10 (fb) - BTS) - The Grelorxians were a race of
extraterrestrial beings known for exclaiming "Wheeee!!!!" when in pain.
(Howard the Duck V#9 (fb) - BTS) - An unidentified Grelorxian allied with the extradimensional media despot Mojo.
(Howard the Duck V#9) - When Howard the Duck stumbled into a Mojo production, unaware he had been manipulated to be there by two extraterrestrial Sparkitects, a fight ensued and Mojo ordered his agents to finish the fight, prompting the Grelorxian to grab the arms of Howard's ally, Tara Tam.
(Howard the Duck V#10) - When Mojo prepared to travel
to Sparkitron to confront the Sparkitects responsible for leading
Howard into his production, he ordered Tara Tam to be disposed of and
in the ensuing struggle, the Grelorxian allied with Mojo was blasted
through a brick wall, screaming "Wheeee!!!!" as he flew through the
air. Howard the Duck then emerged from the hole in the wall, exclaiming
that he would stop shooting the Grelorxian if the alien would stop
lunging at him.
(Howard the Duck V#11) - The Grelorxian allied with
Mojo was present when Tara Tam, angry that Howard the Duck had been
stabbed by the Sparkitect Chipp, savagely attacked Mojo.

The Grelorxians were not
identified on panel but rather, in an editor's note in Howard the Duck
V#10.
While this profile assumes the
Grelorxians to be an extraterrestrial race, I suppose it's also
possible they could be an extradimensional race. Since one was allied
with Mojo, they might originate within the Mojoverse.
During the battle between Howard the Duck and Mojo's associates, Aunt May sprays one of Mojo's men with mace, causing him to yell "Wheeee!!!" like the Grelorxian we'd previously seen at this point. One has to wonder if this was an art error and the alien being sprayed by mace was meant to be the Grelorxian or if perhaps "Wheeee!!!!" is simply an expression of pain in several alien languages...The art clearly shows two distinctly different aliens yelling "Wheeee!!" when in pain.
It was impossible to tell how many
toes a Grelorxian had because the only one we've seen was always
wearing boots.
