List of Marvel Comics characters: F#Fang

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:

To a related topic: This is a redirect to an article about a similar topic.
- Redirects from related topics are different than redirects from related words, because a related topic is more likely to warrant a full and detailed description in the target article. If this redirect's subject is notable, then also tag it with {{R with possibilities}} and {{R printworthy}}.

To a section: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to a section of a page on the subject. For redirects to embedded anchors on a page, use {{R to anchor}} instead.

From a fictional character: This is a redirect from a fictional character to a related fictional work or list of characters. The destination may be an article about a related fictional work that mentions this character, a standalone list of characters, or a subsection of an article or list.
- For redirects named for fictional places use {{R from fictional location}}, and for those named for fictional elements (objects or concepts), use {{R from fictional element}}.

To a comics list entry: This is a redirect from a comics related title for a minor topic to a list of minor entities, a type of article which is a collection of brief descriptions and covers the subject more comprehensively.
- Links to list entries should use this redirect and should not be piped with the target pagename. This allows "what links here" to be used to identify the links to the individual sections.

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.

-'''Fang''' was a member of the Royal Elite of the [[Shi'ar]] [[Imperial Guard (comics)|Imperial Guard]]. He joined the other Imperial Guardsmen in battle against the [[X-Men]] on behalf of Emperor [[D'Ken]] on a nameless Shi'ar Empire planet.  He was attacked by [[Wolverine (comics)|Wolverine]], who defeated him and stripped him of his costume, using it to sneak up on the other Guardsmen.<ref>''X-Men'' Vol. 1 #107</ref>

-Fang later became a "Borderer": a Guardsman stationed on one of the Shi'ar's conquered worlds to help its governor enforce Shi'ar law there.  Fang and a small number of other Guardsmen became renegades and turned traitor, betraying the Shi'ar Empire by serving [[Deathbird]] in her attempt to overthrow her sister Princess-Majestrix [[Lilandra Neramani|Lilandra]]. This incident involves ''Lord Samedar'' attempting to use some of the outlaw Guard in order to attack the Earth. His faction is opposed by other Shi'ar and the X-Men, the renegade Guardsmen battling the loyal Guardsmen, and Fang fighting [[Nightcrawler (comics)|Nightcrawler]] during the conflict. The [[Brood (comics)|Brood]] interfere with a concussion-style bomb secretly hidden in the midst of the battle.<ref>''Uncanny X-Men'' #157</ref>
-Soon after this incident, Fang is slain when the Brood uses him as a host body for the egg of one of their young on the "Broodworld," former home-world of the Brood. His body is consumed and transformed by the Brood embryo implanted inside him, and the resulting Brood alien later fought Wolverine and was apparently killed by him.<ref>''Uncanny X-Men'' #162</ref>
-In ''Untold Tales of Captain Marvel'' — which takes place before his first encounter with the X-Men — Fang, the Guard, Marvel and the Kree face an attack by the Brood.{{Issue|date=May 2009}}
-==Powers and abilities==
-Fang's strength, speed, stamina, durability, agility, and reflexes are higher than that of the average human.  He is an excellent hand-to-hand combatant, having been trained by the [[Shi'ar]] [[Imperial Guard (comics)|Imperial Guard]].
-Imperial Guardsmen wear small anti-gravity devices permitting them to fly, designed by Shi'ar scientists and technicians.
-==Inspiration==
-Several of the members of the Imperial Guard are at least partly based on members of the [[DC Comics]] team [[Legion of Super-Heroes]]. (Dave Cockrum, co-creator of the Guard, also had a long run as artist on the Legion.) Fang is based on LSH member [[Timber Wolf (comics)|Timber Wolf]].{{Fact|date=May 2009}}
