==Fictional company history==
Originating sometime during the early 20th century as Republic Oil & Gas Co. and having rebranded itself at various times, Roxxon has been run by various executives who are ready and eager to use underhanded and illegal option to secure profits, has its own army-like security task force, and has employed a number of special agents. Roxxon has encountered numerous superheroes, such as [[Captain America]], [[Iron Man]], [[Spider-Man]], and the [[Black Panther (character)|Black Panther]].

The Roxxon conglomerate's central division is Roxxon Oil. The company currently wholly owns the Kronas Corporation and the Metrobank while the Brand Corporation is another for-profit company that has specialized in creating superhumans and is usually considered a subsidiary that has sometimes made its own decisions and acted independently.

Roxxon has also regularly been at odds regarding energy sources with [[Features of the Marvel Universe#Government agencies|Project Pegasus]], which has been involved in alternative energy research that could hurt Roxxon's oil profitability.

Roxxon is also shown to have previously had a mining operation on Mars, but (due to unexplained circumstances) halted the operation and erased all traces of everyone involved.<ref>''Secret Avengers'' #1. Marvel Comics.</ref><ref>{{Cite comic |writer=[[Chris Yost|Yost, Chris]] |penciller=[[Khoi Pham|Pham, Khoi]] |inker=[[Tom Palmer (comics)|Palmer, Tom]] |colorist=[[Edgar Delgado|Delgado, Edgar]] |letterer=[[Joe Caramagna|Caramagna, Joe]] |editor=Brennan, Tom |story=The Second Master (Part One) |title=[[Scarlet Spider (comic book)|Scarlet Spider]] |volume=2 |issue=#7 |date=July 11, 2012 |publisher=[[Marvel Comics]] |location=[[New York City]] |page= |panel= |id= }}</ref>

Roxxon Energy Corporation (alongside [[Alchemax]] and Hammer Industries) was mentioned to have once tried to bid on the renovated [[Baxter Building]] only to be outbid by [[Parker Industries]].<ref>''The Amazing Spider-Man'' vol. 4 #3. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Roxxon is revealed to be orchestrating the young superheroes being falsely [[Outlawed (comics)|outlawed]] by the public. Having acquired the dragons from ''[[War of the Realms]]'' event, their first step was to get rid of the high schooler Aliana Kabua. Although [[Kamala Khan]] got injured from saving Aliana, Roxxon begin to shift the blame to [[Champions (2016 team)|the Champions]] for the damage they never started. While forming a partnership with Senator Geoffrey Patrick and C.R.A.D.L.E., Roxxon manipulates them into unknowingly furthering their shady businesses, such as permanent imprisonment, brainwashing and unethical experimentation, as well as possibly kidnapping of the kids who oppose the unjust law. Viv Vision, who survived Roxxon's assault on Aliana, had been monitoring her fellow younger superheroes, but discovers that she is unintentionally selling her friends to C.R.A.D.L.E. and Roxxon. Once the Champions reveals Roxxon's conspiracy to Senator Patrick and the public, the senator finally begins to repeal the unjust law, ending the partnership with Roxxon, and clearing Kamala's name while re-evaluating his business dealings. Later, [[Miles Morales]] and [[Nova (Sam Alexander)|Sam Alexander]] go undercover as interns,<ref>''Champions'' vol. 4 #1-5. Marvel Comics.</ref> prior to being suggested to hire Kamala Kahn. While Roxxon attempts to cover up their illegal activity by releasing a social app called "Roxx-On", a Champion and a former prisoner of C.R.A.D.L.E.'s harassment, Snowguard rallies a group of mobs because they still openly do not trust Roxxon for their previous activities. Much worst, Roxxon already hired Ironheart's nemesis from Stark Unlimited, Andre Sims, in an attempt to collect data to dispose of those who are deemed threats to its business. He replaced young superheroes with his Chaperon robots to ensure the unjust Kamala's Law remains active. During Roxx-On concert, Roxxon lost its public trust thanks to Kamala's public speech about the company's ongoing shady business, thus repealing Kamala's Law and disbanding C.R.A.D.L.E.. However, Roxxon's reputation becomes worst when Andre attempts to dispose of young people like the Champions because of his personal issues, but is immediately stopped by Roxxon's higher-up Miriam Blakemoore. After that, Roxxon finally makes a public speech to apologize for their actions and takes responsibility for Andre's crime.<ref>''Champions'' vol. 4 #6-10. Marvel Comics.</ref>

[[Enchantress (Marvel Comics)|Enchantress]] and [[Executioner (character)|Executioner]] later allied with Minotaur after Roxxon bought the fictional version of Marvel Comics. They provided him with the magic needed to write out his comic book that enabled Enchantress' ally [[Keep (comics)|Keep]] to become Roxxon's version of Thor while using the alias of Chad Hammer. The comics that are made starts to badly affect Thor and poison [[Gaea (Marvel Comics)|Gaea]]. As Keep fought Thor which ended with Thor slaying Keep, Enchantress had Executioner kill Minotaur and usurps his position as CEO of Roxxon.<ref>''Immortal Thor'' #4-10. Marvel Comics.</ref>

At the start of the "Stark-Roxxon War" arc, Roxxon collaborates with [[Advanced Idea Mechanics|A.I.M.]] in a plot to take over Stark Unlimited. They even have [[Crimson Cowl (Justine Hammer)|Justine Hammer]] on their side.<ref>''Iron Man'' Vol. 7 #1. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Using a combination of a machine and a blood sacrifice, Roxxon scientist Dr. Lamarr revives Dario Agger back in his normal appearance. As he was killed by a god, Dario plans to kill the gods. He starts by preventing Thor from mending his relationship with Midgard by enlisting [[Grey Gargoyle]], [[Cobra (Marvel Comics)|King Cobra]], [[Mister Hyde (Marvel Comics)|Mister Hyde]], and [[Radioactive Man (comics)|Radioactive Man]] to attack Thor. After Thor made a comeback, Dario teleports the villains away. As King Cobra left surveillance behind that proved that their defeat was partially caused by Enchantress, Dario plans to use it to leak the footage of Enchantress being Roxxon's new CEO. After mentioning Iron Man's upcoming war with Roxxon, Dario tells the villains that they will have their rematch with Thor by drawing him to them.<ref>''Immortal Thor'' #15-17. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Roxxon and A.I.M.'s merger deal with Stark Industries fell through when it turns out that they were backed by [[Belasco (Marvel Comics)|Belasco]].<ref>''Iron Man'' Vol. 7 #3. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Thanks to Dario Agger, Enchantress' control over Roxxon was exposed. He plans to return to the public with his workers fabricating the information on "Dario Agger Jr." It was also shown that Roxxon has another subsidiary project called Daedalus LLC which is a private prison solution as the defeated villains hired by Agger were remanded there.<ref name="Immortal Thor #18">''Immortal Thor'' #18.

Roxxon also employs a mercenary security force and supervillains such as the [[Rhino (character)|Rhino]] and the [[Prowler (Marvel Comics)#Aaron Davis|Prowler]] as enforcers. Furthermore, Roxxon's corporate corruption resulted in Nuform's creator [[Agent (comics)|Rick Mason]] trying to expose its deadly properties before being killed by Krieger who took credit for Nuform. This led to Rick's sister Phin adopting the [[Tinkerer (Marvel Comics)|Tinkerer]] alias and taking over the Underground criminal group to seek revenge on Roxxon and Krieger. A violent conflict breaks out between the two groups, which [[Miles Morales|Spider-Man]] works to contain. Amidst this, The Tinkerer also seeks to utilize Roxxon Plaza's Nuform reactor to destroy it. However, Spider-Man foils the plot by absorbing the reactor's energy. Phin then helps Spider-Man safe releasing the energy above Harlem, sacrificing herself in the process and destroying Roxxon Plaza. [[Danika Hart]] later reports that Roxxon received several lawsuits and Krieger was arrested.
