Shuma-Gorath is the
manifestation of the Ancient One's dark side. The Ancient One is a powerful
sorceror, who tutored Dr. Strange in the ways of the mystic arts. Shuma-Gorath
possesses all of the Ancient One's abilities, and is the embodiment of
evil. When he encounters other creatures, he appears as that being's worst
nightmare. In his dimension, he became the Sorceror Supreme, and thus opposed
his counterpart in our dimension, Dr. Strange. His attempts to defeat Strange
were unsuccessful, but he was all to successful in his own dimension. He
gained great power and destroyed the Chaos Dimension. Now, he travels through
other dimensions, looking for enough power to sate his hunger. He has now
set his eyes on our dimension, and his goal is to devour the Earth and
absorb it's energies.

Comment:
Shuma Gortah is a
really obscure Marvel character. But for some reason Capcom thought he'd
go well in a 2D fighting game. He's got some interesting moves, and...
he's a walking squid... Not much more to say really.
