The Mox-Pox are a sentient disease.
Biology[]
The Silver Surfer describes them as one of the most contagious in the universe. They are spinly purple creatures with six limbs.
History[]
They had infected Jumbonox the Giganormous, but its sentient antibodies, the Anti-Bodz, kept the Mox-Pox at bay.
When Silver Surfer and Dawn Greenwood were swallowed by Jumbonox, the Surfer weakened the Anti-Bodz, giving the Mox-Pox a chance to escape. The Surfer and Dawn distracted the Mox-Pox by telling them stories about the Brundlebuds, giving the Anti-Bodz enough time to recover. The Mox-Pox eventually tired and fell asleep allowing the Anti-Bodz to contain them.
Culture[]
While a dangerous disease, they also possess child-like innocence when listening to stories.
