To protect the universe from his might, Zom's hands were bound with Links of Living Bondage by Dormammu. Ages ago, he was defeated under unknown circumstances, which may have involved a union of several other extremely powerful beings, including Dormammu (the ruler of the Dark Dimension) and Eternity (the cosmic being representing the entire temporal axis of the Earth dimension). Zom claims to have been created to destroy, but the methods of his creation are unknown. An extra-dimensional monster created by unknown parties.
