He was introduced as a Kree commander sent to Earth to investigate how the planet's seemingly primitive inhabitants managed to destroy an advanced Kree Sentry, during this mission he also tried to kill Mar-Vell out of jealousy and who was in an relationship with another Kree called Una. His schemes ended in Una dying, which resulted in animosity between the two. Yon-Rogg later attempted to defeat his nemesis by kidnapping Carol Danvers and using her as a hostage. However, he was seemingly killed when a Kree device called a Psyche-Magnitron exploded. That same explosion also awoke Carol's latent genetic potential, transforming her into a superhero called Ms. Marvel. He returned years later as Magnitron, to enact revenge on Carol, who was now named Captain Marvel. Yon-Rogg attempted to telepathically torture Carol and destroy New York City. He was defeated once again, at the cost of Carol losing her memories. Yon-Rogg is a Kree military officer who is the commander of the Helion, a Kree spaceship that was sent to Earth by the Supreme Intelligence. Yon-Rogg had a deep hatred towards Mar-Vell due to his love for the Kree medic Una. He ends up leaving Mar-Vell on Earth so that Una can be his. Yon-Rogg later unleashes the Kree Sentry to dispose of Mar-Vell. During his fight with the Sentry, Mar-Vell learned that the Sentry attacking him was sent by Yon-Rogg. After Mar-Vell defeats the Kree Sentry, Yon-Rogg contacts Ronan the Accuser to pass judgement on Mar-Vell's actions. Ronan declines the offer stating that the mission was not jeopardized by Mar-Vell's actions.
