Fictional character biography

Googam was originally an 8ft humanoid alien from the planet "X", and was brought to Earth by his father, Goom. When Goom invades Earth, he hides the still developing Googam in a cave, who is later discovered by a young boy. Googam follows the boy back to his house, and to prevent the destruction of the family home the boy challenges Googam to a game of tag. The boy leads Googam into a pit of quicksand, who then apparently drowns. ["Tales of Suspense" vol. 1, #17]

Googam, however, apparently survives and is deposited on Monster Isle by the Fantastic Four. Following the lead of fellow monster Fin Fang Foom, Googam enters a rehabilitation program, which involves him being shrunken down to human size and hypnotically stripped of his powers so as to allow him to enter human society. Googam takes up a job as a parking attendant in the Baxter Building, but is later tricked by the microscopic alien conqueror Tim Boo Baa into using the scientific equipment of Mr. Fantastic to enlarge him (Tim Boo Baa pretends to be Googam's father, Goom). Tim Boo Baa then uses the equipment to increase his size to giant proportions, until finally defeated by Googam, Fin Fang Foom and fellow monsters Elektro and Gorgilla, now calling themselves the "Fin Fang Four." ["Fin Fan Four" #1 (2005)]
