Xant was serving time in the same prison as [[Baron Karza]] and [[Quin-Tillus]]. He spent most of his time talking though the vent to Quin-Tillus. When the Baron escaped it set Xant free. Baron Karza forced Quin-Tillus to open a Space Bridge to escape. Xant tripped and fell through this bridge, followed by others pursuing Baron Karza. Appearing in the garage of [[Cameron Ruck]] on Earth, Xant and his new companions were attacked by the Baron's robot minions [[Betatron (Micronauts)|Betatron]] and [[Gammatron (Micronauts)|Gammatron]] but he was saved by an [[Biotron|Omnitrix robot]] that had come with them through the bridge.
