The character, created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, first appeared in Tales to Astonish #73 (November 1965). The character subsequently appeared in Tales to Astonish #74 (December 1965), The Incredible Hulk #269–272 (March–June 1982) and #471–474 (December 1998–March 1999).
Within the context of the stories, Amphibion is an amphibious creature from the planet Xantares, considered a powerful fighter, the Xantarean supreme warrior. He is mutated by the Xantarean Grand Council of Elders, and sent to claim the "Sphere of Ultimate Knowledge" on the home planet of the Watcher. Amphibion fights the Hulk over the Sphere, nearly drowning his opponent. Amphibion is exiled from Xantares when he returns after his failure.
He later assists the Sagittarians, along with the Hulk, Torgo, and Dark-Crawler against the Galaxy Master and the Abomination. Amphibion returns to Xantares with the aid of the Hulk and, finding it decimated, is determined to help rebuild it.
