Crawling Dead

The Crawling Dead was an eldritch abomination from the fictional universe of Marvel from Marvel Comics.
==Background==
The Crawling Dead lived in the abandoned ruins of an Atlantean city during the Thurian Age. It was a fleshy throbbing mass of living putrescence with a brain. Centuries earlier, the city's inhabitants had dumped their dead into a communal tomb. Where eldritch forces kept the falling flesh alive, and eventually the corpses began to meld and grow. Until an eldritch abomination arose, one with a brain which was insatiably hungry for more flesh, to further expand. 
It used a spell to lure King Kull of Valusia to its lair. The enchanted Kull saw and followed a beautiful women into the city's dark catacombs. Lorkar his bestial humanoid companion was unaffected by the spell and saved Kull's life, at the cost of his own as he was enveloped and digested by the mass. It then tried to consume Kull whom killed the abomination.
