	There is indeed an official Black Library novel. It tells Makari's story, which is more or less his perspective of the story Big Ghaz himself, titled "Ghazghkull Thraka: Prophet of the Waaagh!". As a framing device, an Ordo Xenos Inquisitor attempting to interrogate Makari with the aid of a [[Blood Axes]] interpreter to discover the backstory of Ghazghkull and hopefully some intel they could use against the Warboss. It gives a sort-of handwave that explains Makari's absence and his return in 8th, which dovetails nicely with existing lore: since ~~orks~~ believe in reincarnation via Gork and/or Mork sucking up their souls and spitting them back out into the Materium to fight again, Makari died at the start of Ghazghkull's career as galactic warboss and has indeed reincarnated. He's died and reincarnated numerous times, in fact, and Gork and Mork keep sending him back because he's been a great little henchman for Ghaz.		There is indeed an official Black Library novel.

	\| Defensively, Makari's 2+++ is pretty much [[awesome\|the best save of the entire game]]. Most HQs are outclassed by this magnificent gretchin. Marine Captains and Chapter Masters are only half as good as him. Guilliman and Abaddon cry every time they think a single gretchin has a better save than them. The fact that only 1/6 wounds hurt him means you're going to have to spam a lot against it, no matter how much strength you have. The only other characters that come close to that invulnerable save is FW's Lieutenant Commander [[Anton Narvaez]] from the [[Marines Errant]] (and let's face it, how many SM players use Marines Errant rules?) and the Dark Eldar [[Archon\|Archons]], both of which will lose its invulnerable once they are hit. And they can't re-roll the failed dice, something Makari can do with no problem. Granted, Makari is still a T3 W4, which is below average for HQs, but he is an HQ nonetheless. This means he is probably one of the best objective holders out there, or a great way to block enemy units in melee.		\| Defensively, Makari's 2+++ is pretty much [[awesome\|the best save of the entire game]].

	\|'''Makari vs Guilliman''' Because why not: The Primarch of the XIIIth legion will have a decent chance of killing Makari. 6 attacks of re-rollable WS2+, 6+ strength (either the sword or the gauntlets, one single successful wound will do enough to oneshot Makari). So for WS, it would hit 11/12 times and wound on 5/6, and after that it would have to go through the 2+ invul save. So each attack has 55/432 chances of killing him. And considering Guilliman has 6 attacks, the chances of Guilliman oneshotting Makari during the first round is 330/432, or around 55/72. The fact that there's a considerable chance Makari will survive a fight with Bobby G tells you how good the fucking 2++ really is.		\|'''Makari vs Guilliman''' Because why not: The Primarch of the XIIIth legion will have a decent chance of killing Makari. 6 attacks of re-rollable WS2+, 6+ strength (either the sword or the gauntlets, one single successful wound will do enough to oneshot Makari).

	On the offensive, Makari is... lacking here. Hitting 1/2 times, and wounding 1/6. Luckily that 6+ is the one with the mortal wounds, but even so. With two attacks, the chances of successfully wounding Guilliman are 2/12, or 1/6. Even if Makari does the maximum damage, it can't hope to one shot him, so Makari would need to survive two whole rounds to have a shot of defeating Guilliman, which is quite difficult. Killing Guilliman would take, at best, three successful attacks, and at worst, nine. All while surviving Guilliman's own attacks. . . but wait he has that 2++, so it's not impossible, maybe unlikely, but not impossible.		On the offensive, Makari is... lacking here.

After several years of regret, GW decided that they had been mean to Makari and paid tribute to him in the 7th edition ork codex.

	~~They~~ have ~~now decided~~, with Ghazghkull~~'s new model coming out,~~ to ~~go ahead and bring Makari back~~, ~~banner~~ and ~~all. Additionally, they created a narrative where, in a “hilarious” inverse~~ of ~~the truth, it’s~~ Makari ~~who~~'s ~~more famous and well known as opposed to the big mystery Ork who follows him around. They also retconned his previous fate by saying his “death-by-ass” was merely propaganda from the Imperium~~.		According to the 9th edition Codex, "Makari" is in fact a series of different Grots that have been given that name and position, with a replacement being "appointed" each time the previous one dies before Ghazghkull can notice. He is completely unaware of this (mostly because nobody has the heart or the nerve to tell him), and is said to be quite fond of bragging about Makari's unusual longetivity.
