After all, Hulk simply turning up out of the blue in the She-Hulk finale with a son in tow was even the subject of a joke from Jen, with her stating she wants to see what happens. This, alongside the other hints at a potential Planet Hulk adaptation that is more akin to the comic story, hints that Marvel Studios are indeed planning to show exactly what Bruce got up to in space, as well as Skaar's origins. Despite this, much of Hulk's time on Sakaar was not featured, with [Ragnarok only showing the Hulk](https://screenrant.com/she-hulk-bruce-banner-skaar-thor-ragnarok-story/) in his final few days on the planet. Not a lot of Skaar is known in terms of the MCU, as his brief cameo in She-Hulk is the first mention or sighting of him. Eventually, Caiera defected to the Hulk's side after the Red King unleashed the Spikes on his army, a race of creatures that attacked Caiera's village when she was a child. Through a whole series of events that saw Sakaar consumed by Galactus, Skaar was exiled to Earth and became hellbent on killing his father. The introduction of Skaar is not just something for the MCU, however, and the character is taken straight out of the comics. Caiera was the bodyguard of a character named the Red King who ruled Sakaar. Bruce also reveals that, during this time, his then-alter ego managed to birth a son named Skaar, who is introduced to Jen, Matt, and the rest of the Walters family.

[Illuminati](https://www.inverse.com/entertainment/doctor-strange-multiverse-of-madness-the-illuminati) after they exiled him to the planet Sakaar, Skaar played a notable role in several major Marvel events. The most likely scenario is that Marvel will give us some sort of variation on the World War Hulk storyline. Later on, he worked with Captain America to infiltrate the [Dark Avengers](https://www.inverse.com/entertainment/avengers-5-villain-theory-the-new-thanos-is-norman-osborn) to take down the evil imposters led by Norman Osborn. responds, “See you on the big screen.” This is played off as a joke, but it seems like a given we’ll see She-Hulk in a Marvel movie eventually. Skaar was first introduced to the Marvel comics in World War Hulk #5 (November 2007). Either way, we definitely haven’t seen the last of Skaar. he starts talking about Bruce Banner’s big reveal before she cuts him off, saying, “Save it for the movie.” In that same scene, Jen asks about Season 2 and K.E.V.I.N.

But between the comics and some other clues, we can make some very educated guesses. [Marvel Cinematic Universe](https://www.inverse.com/marvel-universe).

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law concluded Season 1 with the reveal of Hulk's son Skaar, played by Will Deusner. But who is Skaar and is he from the comics?

Skaar is the son of the Hulk and the Sakaarian Caiera the Oldstrong. In the comics, Skaar is a warrior and depicted as more of a Conan the Barbarian type and less of a superhero-y, Hulk smash type. Yes, the Hulk does have a son in the comics. That’s all we know and the rest we have to infer. Here’s what we know about Skaar the character as he exists in the MCU: he’s Hulk’s son and he was hanging out on the planet Sakaar, the trash planet seen in Thor: Ragnarok. But there’s one way that She-Hulk: Attorney at Law is very much like everything else in the MCU: it gave us a major character introduction that’s gonna propel the franchise forward in a totally unexpected way.

Hulk's son Skaar (played by actor Wil Deusner) raises questions about his time in space, his mom, Caeira Oldstrong, and if there will be a Hulk movie ...

And not long after that, Skaar was depowered by the Hulk himself under the sway of a shifty alter-ego calling himself Doc Green. His defeat at the combined hands of Hulk and Skaar finally provided a meaningful bond between that father and son pair, and ended their long love-hate dynamic. [Thor: Ragnarok](https://www.polygon.com/2017/10/19/16499348/thor-ragnarok-review-avengers-marvel-2017), which repurposed [the tragic background of Planet Hulk](https://www.polygon.com/2015/10/16/9550135/hulk-mark-ruffalo-thor-ragnarok) to craft a memorable road trip buddy comedy between Banner and the God of Thunder. Both of those lessons are ones that cousin Bruce urged Jen to take to heart back in the show’s pilot episode, and seeing him take on another familial protégé makes a certain amount of sense, even as it adds another wrinkle to the increasingly knotty and chaotic Banner family tree. Of course, family relationships in Marvel Comics are rarely simple, and Hulk and Skaar’s father-son bonding trip was no exception.

The first of these boys, Skaar, has had the more Hulk-relevant history. She used her powers to ensure her unborn children survived Sakaar’s destruction and then became one with the planet.

Written by Greg Pak and drawn by Carlo Pagulayan and Aaron Lopresti, that story found Earth’s heroes collectively sighing impatiently at Bruce Banner’s periodic fits of Hulked-out rage, and tricking him into an intergalactic flight that exiled him to a distant galaxy.

She-Hulk's first season ends with a major bombshell for the Hulk family, and it's one that draws on a very tragic Marvel storyline.

That said, don’t expect a direct adaptation of Planet Hulk or World War Hulk in the MCU. Previous episodes showed a Sakaarian messenger arriving on Earth and Hulk returning to the planet to deal with some unfinished business. The MCU’s Hulk is in a much better place. Hulk is a constantly evolving character, however, and once Skaar finally arrives he realizes the “Green Scar” who ruled Sakaar is no more. It was one of his own warriors who sabotaged the ship, and his son Skaar has survived. In both the comics and the MCU, Hulk spends a good deal of time away from Earth and smashing his way to victory in Sakaar’s gladiator arena. He eventually defeats his nemesis, the warlord Axeman Bone, and vows to travel to Earth and kill his absentee father. He also doesn’t usurp the throne of Sakaar, though he and Thor wind up helping speed along the Grandmaster’s downfall by the time they escape the planet. As the son of two of the greatest warriors in the universe, Skaar is no slouch himself. Planet Hulk deals with Hulk’s arrival on Sakaar, after the Illuminati banish him from Earth in order to protect humanity from his wrath. Hulk is back from the planet Sakaar, and he’s brought his son with him. World War Hulk itself is one piece of Pak’s much larger Hulk saga, which began in 2005’s Planet Hulk.
