The Korbinites are the inhabitants of the planet Korbin. Despite not being residents of the Nine Realms, Heimdall used to watch over them.
History[]
War of the Nine Realms[]
The Korbinites have interacted with the Asgardians, although the nature of their interactions is unclear. When Thor destroyed the Rainbow Bridge, Korbin was one of the worlds affected by the Asgardians' inability to harness the Bifrost, leaving their world vulnerable to forces like the Marauders. When the Rainbow Bridge was repaired by the Tesseract, Korbin was saved.[1]
At least one Korbinite became a specimen held in Taneleer Tivan's museum before Carina tried to free herself after touching the Power Stone, resulting in an explosion.[2]
One member of this species, Beta Ray Bill, became the champion of the Grandmaster on Sakaar.[3]
Massacre of the Korbinites[]
In 2014, Nebula and Gamora pulled off a massacre against the Korbinites under Thanos' orders before Thanos was informed by Ronan the Accuser about the Power Stone's location.[4]
