History

The Green Dragon was a massive dragon that was part of Chinese legend. The creature was said to be a defender of the nation of China and would protect its people from their worst enemies in times when the Chinese were unable to protect themselves. There may be some truth of this fact, as one source has suggested that the Green Dragon might be a member of the Makluan race.[1]

Whatever the case may be, in 1954 the creature seemingly sprung back to life during the annual Feast of the Green Dragon which celebrated the legend of the Green Dragon. This occurred when Captain America and Bucky Barnes were in the country seeking a stolen list of UN officials. Chased by Chinese soldiers, Captain America and Bucky climbed into the mouth of what they thought was a mechanical version of the Green Dragon. However the creature came to life and attacked the reds, seen as the true enemies of China, before becoming dormant once more.[2]
