History: (Fantastic Four I#117) – When the Human Torch drew too close to Attilan, three Inhumans loyal to Maximus the Mad worked together to hold him off, including Chrion, Kaliban and Asmodeus. Kaliban hit the hero with an ion-blast then Chrion ordered Asmodeus to catch him. The Human Torch blasted free from Asmodeus' grasp though Asmodeus' heat-resistant wings protected him from harm. The hero soon fled.

Comments: Created by Archie Goodwin, John Buscema and Joe Sinnott.

It was not known for sure is Asmodeus' powers were the result of Terrigenesis or if they resulted from inherited genes.
