Amon Hakk is a Khund warrior hailing from the planet Khundia within the Khundian Empire.

History

He is the first of his people to apply for L.E.G.I.O.N. membership. Like most Khunds, he possesses strength and battle skill far greater than that of most humanoids.

When he first became a member of the team, one of his fellow recruits was rumored to have been a traitor. Due to being the lone Khund in all of L.E.G.I.O.N., he became the first suspect. He was quickly cleared of this by telepathic probe. Soon they found it was his fellow recruit, Ig'nea.

Amon was dedicated to the team and developed a strong bond with his fellow R.E.C.R.U.I.T.S. They were loyal to him as well and when he was arrested during race riots on Arga-Prime, his teammates risked their lives to free him.

When the L.E.G.I.O.N. was taken over via mind control by Vril Dox II's son, Lyrl Dox, Amon was among those who fell under his spell. He was freed along with the others when Vril Dox II returned to defeat Lyrl Dox.

When Amon attempted to return home to Khundia, he discovered that his reputation was sullied by his participation with the team. Amon Hakk left his people again to become a mercenary, which brought him in pursuit of his former commander, Vril Dox II. Soon both warriors were forced to take the same side again when Starro the Conqueror invaded.

Amonn Hakk was part of a team of bounty hunters, along with Getorix, that chased Vril Dox II to Earth after he was ousted from L.E.G.I.O.N..

They are eventually captured by by the Khund Vanamon Kreel, under the Durlan Captain, Ciji. They are held prisoner by captain Ciji and are escorted by her but Amon Hakk laughs at the idea that he is being escorted to jail by a child. Ciji then transforms her left arm into a grotesque claw and impales Skwaul, simply because she states that she doesn't like telepaths.
