Itôn

Itôn, also known as Iton or Yton, is a fictional character appearing in various comic books published by DC Comics. He is a member of the Pheragores, an alien race known for their advanced technology and predatory nature. Itôn is often depicted as a formidable adversary, particularly for Superman. His species possesses a unique physiology that allows them to absorb and manipulate energy, making them incredibly powerful in combat.

The Pheragores originate from a planet in the Andromeda Galaxy. They are characterized by their insectoid-like appearance and their hunger for energy sources. Itôn, as one of their prominent warriors, embodies these traits. He has engaged Superman in numerous battles, often seeking to drain the Kryptonian's solar-powered abilities. His encounters usually highlight his brute strength and strategic use of Pheragore technology.

Itôn's motivations are typically driven by the Pheragores' need to sustain their species, which requires constant energy acquisition. This often puts them at odds with civilizations that possess significant energy reserves, such as Earth. While primarily a villain, the nature of his species suggests a primal instinct rather than outright malice, though his actions are undeniably destructive. His appearances are often tied to larger storylines involving alien invasions or threats to Earth.
