Zug (Marvel Comics)

🐙 Zug is a Lovecraftian-like monster from the fictional universe of Marvel by Marvel Comics.

Background[]

Zug was worshipped by the priests of Thugra Khotan in Stygia during the Hyborian Age. A great dome was built over its chamber. The dome was impenetrable to Hyborian weaponry and could only be opened by specific unlocking mechanisms. Inside the dome was a huge amount of gold. Zug itself was dozens of feet in diameter and had a great maw full of sharp teeth, and numerous eyes and tentacles, the latter as strong as human beings and dozens of feet long. The creature apparently slumbered and its body was mistaken to be the chamber's floor. The creature attacked and consumed any who were within reach. Conan and his companions encountered the beast, and were barely able to escape it.
