Who is Imperiex?

History The reputation alone of the star-spanning Imperiex was enough to instill fear in the heart of Mongul the Second (especially when the called "Destroyer of Galaxies" decimated the Warworld ). With Imperiex on a collision course for earth, Mongul formed an uneasy alliance with Superman so that he might suitably train the Man of Steel for deep Space combat to halt Imperiexs swath of destruction. In a pitched battle, Mongul and Superman prevented Imperiex from assembling an Energy vortex designed to erase Earths solar system. But Imperiex disappeared, leaving the Man of Steel to defeat Mongul. Unfortunately, neither Mongul or Superman realized that the foe they faced was merely a probe in the service of the true Imperiex, a decidedly larger and more powerful being who has focused his attentions on the Man of Steel. Imperiex Prime wields the power of the Big Bang itself. Wanting to destroy the present universe and create a new and more perfect universe, Imperiex Prime sets out to destroy the universe world by world. When Imperiex arrives at Earth, the hero's and villain's of the world unite as one to fight him off.
