==Publication history==
Skaar was created by writer [[Greg Pak]] and arist [[John Romita, Jr.]] The earliest incarnation of the character first appeared in ''[[List of What If issues#Sixth Series (2007)|What If Planet Hulk?]]'' #1 (Dec. 2007),<ref name=MensHealth/> "Peaceful Planet", an [[alternate history]] story by Pak and artist Rafa Sandoval, which imagines the sequence of events that would have transpired had Hulk landed on the peaceful planet that the Illuminati had intended, rather than on Sakaar, as occurred in the "[[Planet Hulk]]" storyline.<ref>{{cite comic|writer=[[Pak, Greg]]|artist=[[Kirk, Leonard]]|story=What if the Hulk Died and Caiera Lived?|title=[[What If? Planet Hulk]]|issue=1|date=December 2007|publisher=[[Marvel Comics]]}}</ref>

Following the "Planet Skaar" story arc, which resulted in Skaar's arrival on Earth, the book's title changed with issue #13 to ''Son of Hulk'', after which new writer [[Paul Jenkins (writer)|Paul Jenkins]] focused on [[Hiro-Kala]], another son of [[Bruce Banner]].

==Fictional character biography==
Skaar is the son of the [[Hulk]]/Bruce Banner and Caiera, an extraterrestrial native of the planet Sakaar.<ref name=IGN>{{cite web|url=https://www.ign.com/articles/she-hulk-skaar-explained-hulk-son-planet-hulk-sakaar|title=She-Hulk's Skaar Explained: The Tragic Story Behind Hulk's Son|publisher=[[IGN]]|author=Schedeen, Jesse|language=en-US|url-status=live|date=October 13, 2022|access-date=June 28, 2023|archive-date=June 28, 2023|archive-url=https://archive.today/20230628173434/https://www.ign.com/articles/she-hulk-skaar-explained-hulk-son-planet-hulk-sakaar}}</ref> He was [[Posthumous birth|posthumously born]] via the Old Power after Sakaar was destroyed and Caiera killed, emerging from a cocoon on the planet's remains and rapidly aging into an adult.<ref name=SonOfHulk1>{{cite comic|title=Skaar: Son of Hulk|issue=1|publisher=[[Marvel Comics]]|writer=[[Pak, Greg]]|artist=[[Garney, Ron]]|story=Cradle of Fire|date=August 2008}}</ref> To survive, Skaar learned the need to kill as part of his upbringing by the savage creatures of his home planet. He demonstrates himself to be a fierce and capable general, becoming the enemy of Axeman Bone and gaining the ability to harness the Old Power to manipulate the earth.<ref>Pak, Greg. ''Skaar: Son of Hulk'' #2-6. Marvel Comics. September 2008-February 2009</ref>

Skaar was able to communicate with the spirit of his supposedly dead mother, Caiera. He fights a war against Axeman Bone, but this only delays his people's escape from the near-destruction of the planet by [[Galactus]]. Because the planet possesses enough energy to satiate Galactus' hunger for 100,000 years, Caiera takes the Old Power from Skaar as she tries to reason with him.<ref>Pak, Greg. "Return of the Silver Savage" ''Skaar: Son of Hulk'' #7; Marvel Comics; March 2009</ref> Skaar admits to Caiera that he wanted to clear the evil from the planet. However, the [[Silver Surfer]] restores Skaar's Old Power and shows him a vision of the death and destruction of Sakaar, leading Skaar to destroy the evacuation ships. He tells the Surfer that if he does not spare his planet, he will use the Old Power to increase Galactus' hunger and endanger more planets, including those already saved by the Surfer. After the Surfer informs the people of Sakaar that their safety would lead to the death of countless planets, he departs. Caiera denounces Skaar for his decision and absorbs his Old Power. She then exiles him from Sakaar and waits for Galactus to consume her.<ref>Pak, Greg. ''Skaar: Son of Hulk'' #10. Marvel Comics. June 2009</ref>

Skaar arrives on Earth with the sole desire to kill his father, the Hulk. After conflicts with the [[United States Armed Forces|United States military]], the [[Fantastic Four]] and the [[Warbound]], he confronts the Hulk. Unbeknownst to Skaar, the Hulk has changed since his time on Sakaar. After the Hulk engages Skaar, he effortlessly beats him but their fight creates a fissure that endangers a nuclear power plant. Skaar ceases his attack when he realizes that this Hulk is not the "War Hulk" that conceived him, the one he desires to kill. He prevents the fissure from endangering the power plant and declares Earth to be his new home.<ref>Pak, Greg. ''Skaar: Son of Hulk'' #12. Marvel Comics. August 2009</ref>

Skaar later encounters Bruce Banner, who had been depowered by the [[Red Hulk]]. Skaar reiterates his desire to kill the Hulk, but he cannot accomplish this by killing him in Banner's form as they had separated into two distinct personas. Bruce offers to teach Skaar how to kill the Hulk should he ever return, but this is a ruse to allow Banner to monitor his "son", and impart fatherly wisdom in the hope of turning the savage warrior into a hero. Skaar demonstrates his ability to use both cunning and physical strength by hurling the villain Juggernaut into outer space.<ref>Pak, Greg. "Banner's Back" and "Play Date". ''Incredible Hulk'' #601-602. Marvel Comics. October - November 2009</ref> Subsequent lessons by Banner include encounters with [[Wolverine (character)|Wolverine]], Wolverine's son, [[Daken]], [[Victoria Hand (comics)|Victoria Hand]], [[Karla Sofen|Moonstone]], a mutated [[Marlo Chandler]], [[Tyrannus (comics)|Tyrannus]], the [[Mole Man]] and his army of [[Moloids]].<ref>Pak, Greg.

After defeating the Moloids, Skaar is proclaimed a hero and a parade is held in his honor. Banner confronts the Red Hulk but grows angry. He then [[Teleportation|teleports]] to the country of [[Latveria]], supposedly to transform in private but a battle breaks out between the Hulk and Latverian leader [[Doctor Doom]]. Skaar soon intervenes with the aid of his father's teleportation technology as he wants to prevent Doom from robbing him of the ability to kill the Hulk. Doom overpowers Skaar with magic, reverting him to his human form and revealing that this Hulk is a robot. Banner then arrives to rescue his son, seeing him in his human form for the first time. But Skaar rejects Banner's affection, believing that Banner cares only for his deceased wife. Skaar concludes that his discovery of the teleporter and trip to Latveria are part of another of Banner's "lessons", and reiterates his desire to someday kill him in his Hulk form.<ref>Pak, Greg. "Dark Son". ''Incredible Hulk'' #606. Marvel Comics. October 2010</ref>

During the "[[Fall of the Hulks]]", "[[World War Hulks]]", and "Dark Son" storylines, Skaar comes to the aid of the [[Avengers (comics)|Avengers]] by battling the [[Red She-Hulk]] in a story that involves the villainous group Intelligencia capturing Banner and turning people in [[Washington, D.C.]], into Hulks, including the genius [[Amadeus Cho]].<ref>Pak, Greg. "Unbound" ''Incredible Hulk'' #607; Marvel Comics; April 2010</ref><ref>Pak, Greg. "Endgame". ''Incredible Hulk'' #608. Marvel Comics.

As they fight, the Hulk rescues many innocent bystanders endangered by the battle. Skaar reacts to his father's compassion by ceasing his own assault and reverting to human form, but the Hulk continues fighting. His actions quickly remind him of Banner's abusive father [[Brian Banner|Brian]], reverting him back to his human form. Banner embraces his son, who is finally willing to accept his love.<ref>Pak, Greg. "Dark Son". ''Incredible Hulk'' #611. Marvel Comics.

During the "[[Chaos War (comics)|Chaos War]]" storyline, Skaar helps his father and his friends in their fight against the forces of Amatsu-Mikaboshi.<ref>''Incredible Hulk'' #618-619.

Skaar accompanies the Hulk and the Warbound to the [[Savage Land]] when they are contacted by [[Ka-Zar (Kevin Plunder)|Ka-Zar]] regarding the death of some Sakaarians who were living there.<ref>''Incredible Hulk'' #622. Marvel Comics.</ref> They discover that [[Miek]] is involved in a plot to use Sakaarian bodies to store his hatchlings.<ref>''Incredible Hulk'' #623.

Following Miek's apparent death, Skaar remains in the Savage Land to keep an eye on the remaining Sakaarians.<ref>''Incredible Hulk'' #625. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Skaar is recruited by [[Green Goblin|Norman Osborn]] to join the second incarnation of the [[Dark Avengers]].<ref>''New Avengers'' vol. 2 #18.

Marvel Comics.</ref> It is revealed at that point that Skaar is actually a double agent. He then frees Captain America while the New Avengers defeat the remaining Dark Avengers.<ref>''New Avengers'' vol. 2 #23. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Skaar later travels back to the Savage Land as it reminds him of his home planet. The Hulk in his Doc Green form tracks Skaar there to depower him as part of his plan to depower every gamma mutate on Earth. After a brief fight, Skaar is finally depowered. Doc Green teleports Skaar to Paris along with a backpack full of money so he can start a new and better life under the alias "Santos".<ref>''Hulk'' vol. 3 #7. Marvel Comics.</ref>

The [[Abomination (character)|Abomination]]'s company Green Spring later repowers Skaar.

==Powers and abilities==
Skaar possesses superhuman abilities derived from his parents, the [[Hulk]]/Bruce Banner and [[Caiera]], an alien native of the planet Sakaar. Like his father, he possesses a dual form: That of an ordinary male with normal strength, and that of a towering green humanoid. He can revert to human form when calm or otherwise incapacitated.<ref name=SonOfHulk1/> The powers he inherited from his father are derived from Banner's exposure to [[gamma radiation]].<ref name=IGN/>

In his Hulk-like form, Skaar possesses immense superhuman strength, stamina, and resistance to injury,<ref name=IGN/><ref name=Marvel.com>{{cite web|url=https://www.marvel.com/characters/skaar|publisher=[[Marvel Comics]]|title=Skaar|language=en-US|url-status=live|access-date=June 28, 2023|archive-date=June 28, 2023|archive-url=https://archive.today/20230628160802/https://www.marvel.com/characters/skaar}}</ref><ref name=IncredHulk602>{{cite comic|writer=[[Pak, Greg]]|artist=[[Olivetti, Ariel]]|story=Playdate|title=[[The Incredible Hulk (comic book)|The Incredible Hulk]]|issue=602|date=November 2009|publisher=Marvel Comics}}</ref> His strength increases whenever enraged, and has been shown to be able to break off pieces of the armor worn by [[Juggernaut (character)|Juggernaut]], who is otherwise unstoppable once he begins to charge forward.<ref name=IncredHulk602/> His resistance to injury is such that being engulfed in flames causes no damage to him,<ref name=SonOfHulk1/> and he can easily shrug off an explosion from a [[rocket-propelled grenade]].<ref>{{cite comic|title=Wolverine: Origins|issue=47|date=June 2010|publisher=[[Marvel Comics]]|story=Reckoning: Part Two|writer=[[Way, Daniel]]|artist=Conrad, Will}}</ref> [[Iron Fist (character)|Iron Fist]], however, is able to stun him with a powerful chi-punch.<ref>''The New Avengers'' vol. 2 #20.

Skaar also has other powers, including the ability to rapidly heal after sustaining injuries, the ability to sense the life forces of other beings anywhere on the planet on which he is located, and the ability to transform into a Shadow form in which he can still access some of the Old Power, though he cannot use his gamma-induced powers in this form.<ref name=Marvel.com/>
