Monstrom (Earth-7045)

Monstrom is a 20 foot-tall alien who was shipwrecked on Earth thousands of years ago.

History
Monstrom's spaceship crashed on Earth while crossing the universe a thousand years ago in the Bayou region of what is now the Southern United States. Unable to repair the ship himself, Monstrom placed himself in a state of suspended animation until such a time as humans would be advanced enough to help him repair his damaged vessel. Awoken by a small boy exploring the swamp, Monstrom tried to communicate with the humans, but is only capable of making guttural sounds, which the people found menacing. Considering him a monster, the people in the area almost immediately started shooting at Monstrom, trying to kill him. Monstrom, however, was immune to their rifle fire and followed the people back to town. It was there that the townspeople learned that Monstrom was afraid of fire and they used it to drive him back into the bayou. Monstrom once again sunk into the murky water to the safety of his spaceship, having considered humans still too primitive and barbaric to help him. He thus returned to suspended animation to again wait for a time when mankind may have advanced beyond this primitive stage.
