Howard the Duck
Howard the Duck was born on Duckworld, a planet in another dimension, where intelligent life evolved from waterfowl.
Duckworld is apparently an alternate Earth, and resembles mankind's Earth in an astounding number of ways, including the fact that ducks speak English.
As a child, he discovered an amazing potential intellect, however he was continuously bullied by other children as a result.
He eventually decided to give away his studies, wasting his potential.
Further details about Howard's past on Duckworld are still unrevealed.
Indeed, there are conflicting accounts as to the circumstances surrounding his disappearance.
Howard vanished from his home world when the power hungry demon Thog the Nether-Spawn used his magic to cause the interdimensional Cosmic Axis to shift.
Howard was dislodged from his home dimension and dropped into the middle of the Florida Everglades on our Earth at the site of this world's Nexus of All Realities, a place from which travel to all other dimensions is said to be possible.
In an effort to set the Cosmic Axis right and return home, the reluctant Howard joined with Korrek the barbarian, who also came from another dimension, the young Earth-born sorceress Jennifer Kale, Dakimh the Enchanter, and the Man-Thing.
The battle against Thog ended for Howard when he fell off the other-dimensional Stepping Stones of Oblivion and landed back on our Earth in the city of Cleveland, Ohio, where he first faced the menace of Garko, the Man-Frog and Bessie, the Hellcow.
In Cleveland, Howard first met the young life model Beverly Switzler when they were both menaced by the costumed criminal accountant Pro-Rata.
Howard and Beverly escaped and began living together.
Their relationship lasted a long time, but is now apparently over.
Although Howard has attempted to live as normal a life as possible, considering that he is a talking duck on a world of human beings, he has continually run afoul, so to speak, of various unusual menaces, most notably his arch nemesis Doctor Bong.
However through cleverness, persistence, and good luck, Howard has always managed to defeat or escape his adversaries.
Howard came to public notoriety when he became a candidate for the United States presidency on a very minor party ticket.
He was even the target of an assassination plot as someone hired Doctor Angst and his Band of the Bland to kill him.
Howard defeated his would-be assassins with the help of the Defenders and they were sent to prison.
As it turned out, the assassination was unnecessary as the general populace refused to believe that Howard is a real talking duck, thinking of him instead as a dwarf in a duck suit.
As a result, the public dismissed his candidacy as a joke.
Howard has chosen to make the world of humans his home.
Dakimh the Enchanter has predicted that Howard has a major role to play in the destiny of the multiverse, and that role may still involve more adventures in Howard's future.
Beverly obtained a job at a company owned by Doctor Bong who turned Howard into a Giant Mouse, but the process was unstable and he cycled through different forms before settling on the mouse again.
Bong Joined with Kenneth Flogg to gain the Amulet of Pazuzu, but Howard obtained it first, gained its power and used it to slay Flogg's assistant Ian Whippingham.
They next stayed at the Boarding House of Mystery joining the fellow tenant Splatter Gomorrah in exposing talk show host Iprah as a marketing franchise.
However, she was possessed by the demon-angel hybrid Deuteronomy.
Howard used the cigar of the Saint of Therapists, Sigmund Freud to banish Deuteronomy, however he decided to take a puff of the cigar which disintegrated him and sent him to Hell.
He was saved by God himself who, grateful for him dealing with Deuteronomy, shared with Howard the Meaning of life before returning him to Earth back in Duck Form.
Later, Howard became a agent for A.R.M.O.R.
He was then hired by Morbius the Living Vampire on a private mission to travel into a multiverse of different types of zombies and collect a sample of each zombie.
Before he could go, he was to search for Machine Man and recruit him.
Howard found Machine Man drunk and depressed for his girlfriend Jocasta went back to her former husband Ultron.
Howard was able to convince Machine Man to join him on their mission.
Because of his experience with zombie-infested worlds and his leadership of Machine Man he was chosen as the leader of the, as he dubbed them, the Ducky Dozen.
The team was comprised of himself, several lesser known heroes, Dum Dum Dugan, and Battlestar, who is also a veteran of a zombie incident in Marvel Zombies Supreme.
Howard lead the team through it all and got them home, but not without grave loses.
After the death of the Watcher and the activation of the secrets buried in his eye, Howard discovered that he had the potential to be the most intelligent being in Duckworld.
After evading a squirrel while driving, he was thrown flying and used his intellect to calculated his way to land to safe in a dumpster.
