Ok, this is my first attempt at a "Respect" Thread for a pretty obscure character. He doesn't have many appearances but I just find him pretty awesome.
First, who is he? Well no on really knows for sure, just an extremely power demon "created to destroy". Some time in the distant past Dormammu got the "Chains of Living Bondage" on him but couldn't put him down. Eternity steps in and binds him further with a "Crown of Blindness" and imprisons him within a mystic amphora in a dimension beyond all space and time.
And with that we begin :
Ancient One leading Strange to the Amphora, they need to release Zom to deal with Umar, the sister of Dormammu. Notice how Strange refers to the Amphora as "the most fearsome mystic object of all".

Zom lives! He was imprisoned to protect the universe from his might

Strange utterly in awe of his power. Stating that even bound with the "Chains of Living Bondage" he's still a menace. "Indescribably more dangerous than a DOZEN Umars".

Leading Zom to Umar, since Strange could not control him. She's awed by him and states his power dwarfs hers. Keep in mind, Umar is Dormammu's equal in raw power, he's just more versatile :

Umar flees his wrath, her spells melting into vapor against Zom. Keep in mind, this is him while he's still bound by the "Chains of Living Bondage", she states if he ever gets free no power in the universe can stop him, He snaps the chain but not the manacles :

Owning the Ancient One :

The Ancient One before he got owned, gave his power to Strange, it doesn't help
. Here he is owning, then about to kill Strange/Ancient One but is distracted by the coming of the Living Tribunal :

This ends part 1. All other appearances of Zom aren't really Zom but a sliver of Zom's power called a Zomling. You see, the Living Tribunal immolated him but Zom didn't die. A fraction of his power lives on in the Zomling. But if it absorbs enough mystic energy, it will reform a full Zom.
