==Fictional character biography==
The Golden Age version of the character was one of several alien Crocodile Men from the planetoid Punkus who joined the Monster Society of Evil under Mister Mind. Crocodile Men played a large part in the group. In another Marvel Family story, it featured the Hiss-Men, who are creatures from a million years ago that resemble the Crocodile-Men. Possibly they are Crocodile Men that landed on Earth, or Hiss-Men that left the planet as the rest of their race were killed by humans and the Marvel Family.
The current Sobek was first believed to be a bioengineered humanoid crocodile, created in Doctor Sivana's lab. Sobek is found in Dr. Sivana's residence, claiming to be a crocodile Sivana got from the Nile and experimented on before he escaped from his cage in Sivana's lab, and befriended by Osiris, as the Black Marvels were at a charity dinner hosted by Mrs Sivana, who wanted her husband found.〔''52'' #26〕 He is named Sobek after the Egyptian god, claiming he doesn't have a name. From then on, Sobek puts on a facade of cowardice and timidness (essentially becoming the Black Marvel Family analogue of Tawky Tawny) to fool everyone around him. When Osiris suffers despondancy after accidentally killing Persuader and thinks his powers are evil and are causing the disasters in Khandaq, Sobek convinces him to give up his powers. Once Osiris becomes human, Sobek quickly devours him, claiming 'I'm not so hungry anymore'.〔''52'' #43〕
Soon after, Sobek is revealed to be Yurrd the Unknown, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, representing famine. Yurrd has been created along with Roggra, Zorrm, and Azraeuz as a group of bioengineered monstrosities sent to attack the Black Marvel Family, he causes crops to die so even the magic of Isis cannot restore them. Yurrd was the first to be sent out as a sleeper agent until the time looked right to strike. Black Adam and Isis are lured to the Horsemen when Black Adam feels Osiris's power returning to him. He tells Black Adam that Osiris was too stringy. In the ensuing battle, Yurrd is the first of the Horsemen to be killed, his jaws ripped apart by Black Adam. The other ones are killed by Adam except for Death,〔''52'' #44〕 who escapes to the nearby nation of Bialya. Adam kills millions of people, before finding, torturing, then killing Death to find out who created the Horsemen.〔''52'' #45〕 In ''52'' #52, a shot shows Black Adam wearing new boots, which the writers revealed in interviews〔52 tpb 4〕 to be in fact made of Sobek's flesh.
