History

Teju was selected by the Prime Mover as one of his pawns for his contest against the Grandmaster for ownership of Earth. Teju was partnered with Dumog against the Sub-Mariner and Daredevil.

The battle was fought in an environment full of volcanoes and heat, which made the Sub-Mariner much weaker than normal. Teju and Dumog won their battle, seemingly killing the two heroes, though they were both resurrected when the Grandmaster defeated the Prime Mover.
