He was a part of cult of hammer, whom worshiped Thor's hammer Mjolnir believing that someone would be worthy of lifting Mjolnir might prove worthy to lift it, and gain Thor's power and save their future.

Some time later, Mjolnir returns to Dargo for unknown reasons and he resumes being Thor, battling the Demonstaff and is briefly used as a pawn against Earth-616's Fantastic Four by Zarrko the Tomorrow Man. Zarrko fools Dargo into traveling back in time to Earth-616 to attack Eric Masterson, then Thor's modern-day avatar, whom Zarrko claimed had stolen Thor's hammer. Dargo fought both Eric and Stellaris before Beta Ray Bill, another "Thor" intervened and foiled Zarrko's deception.
