Amton

Amton is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character first appeared in Nova #17, published in September 1977. Amton is a member of the alien race known as the Xandarians, a technologically advanced civilization from the planet Xandar.

Amton's role in the comics has primarily been as a supporting character, often involved with the Nova Corps, the intergalactic peacekeeping force of Xandar. He has been depicted as a loyal and capable officer, serving alongside Nova, the human superhero who is also a member of the Nova Corps. Amton's appearances often involve him providing assistance or information to Nova, particularly during missions that take place on Xandar or involve Xandarian interests.

While not a central figure, Amton represents the wider Xandarian society and its military structure. His presence helps to flesh out the universe in which Nova operates, showcasing the alien culture and the organization that grants Nova his powers. Details about Amton's personal life or specific backstory are generally limited, as his function is more to serve the narrative of the main characters and the Xandarian setting. He is a consistent element in stories featuring Nova and the Xandarian world, contributing to the ongoing continuity of those comic book titles.
