Publication history
The D'Bari first appeared in Avengers vol. 1 #4 (March 1964), and were created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. The race was destroyed in Uncanny X-Men #135 (July 1980)
Since that time, the D'Bari have been shown in flashback in Classic X-Men #43 (January 1990), and later writers have asserted that a small number of D'Bari, not on their homeworld at the time of its destruction, survived, including stories in She-Hulk #43-46 (September-December 1992), Nova (second series) #1 (November 1994) and #15 (March 1995), Wolverine (second series) #136-138 (March-May 1999), Wolverine 2000 Annual, and Uncanny X-Men #387 (December 2000).
Fictional character biography
The D'Bari were a humanoid plant species that lived on the fourth planet of the D'Bari system, located within the sphere of influence of the Shi'ar Empire. They are perhaps most well known for the last moment of their existence, as the Dark Phoenix replenished itself by destroying their sun. Approximately five billion D'Bari died when their star went nova.[1]
A small number of D'Bari, not on their homeworld at the time of its destruction, apparently survived.
