The "Cabbage Man" (real name unknown) is an extraterrestrial creature who came to Earth from Asturi Cridenta, representing an alliance of numerous alien species who took offense at the "Miss Stardust" beauty pageant's name, and demanded non-Human representation.
He possesses technology far beyond that of 20th century mankind, and threatened to take violent action on the planet if his and his comrades' demands were not met.
