Born on Sakaar to Caiera and the Hulk, Hiro-Kala is the twin brother of Skaar. As a child he was enslaved after birth, fled into the desert, and later killed a priest (Hiro-Amin) after being told the Old Power could be obtained by killing another possessor; the Old Power manifested as a blue beam in that episode but did not enter him at that time. After Galactus destroyed Sakaar, Hiro-Kala led survivors searching for a new world, traveled to the Microverse planet K’ai, attempted to conquer and later sought to seize K’ai’s Worldmind, and tried to make K’ai collide with Earth. During the conflict Skaar used the Old Power to encase Hiro-Kala in stone and K’ai’s Worldmind later took him into the planet’s core. In a later timeline he is shown as leader of Sakaar En Nevo and is fatally poisoned as part of a conspiracy (Imperial, 2025).
Sources describe Hiro-Kala as the humanoid son of the Hulk and Caiera, implying Sakaaran physiology consistent with that lineage; comic-book art depicts his appearance in published issues, but the supplied textual summaries do not provide specific measurements, clothing details, or distinguishing marks in prose.
Hiro-Kala is documented as mastering the Old Power native to Sakaar and combining it with the Power Cosmic into a different form called the New Power. Manifestations attributed to his New Power in the sources include power bestowal, force fields, precognitive visions, energy blasts, mental control, technopathy, and generating spatial rifts. He possesses superhuman strength, stamina, durability, agility, and reflexes and is experienced in unarmed combat and swordsmanship. Narrative feats include pulling the planet K’ai out of the Microverse, attempting to seize control of K’ai’s Worldmind, enslaving portions of K’ai’s inhabitants, and attempting to move K’ai into collision with Earth. He was temporarily neutralized when Skaar encased him in stone and later taken into K’ai’s core by the Worldmind; in the Imperial timeline he functions as a political leader before being poisoned.
