Skaar is a fictional character, a comic book superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, usually as a supporting character in stories featuring his father, the Hulk, who conceived Skaar with the extraterrestrial Caiera during the 20062007 "Planet Hulk" storyline. Created by writer Greg Pak and artist John Romita Jr., the earliest version of the character appeared in a cameo in an alternate history story in What If? Planet Hulk #1 (cover-dated December 2007), in which the character was drawn by Rafa Sandoval. The Earth-616 version of the character appeared in World War Hulk #5 (Jan. 2008), by Pak and Romita, Jr.[1]

The character has been adapted into other media. He first appeared in animated form in Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H. (2013–2015), and in live-action form in the Marvel Cinematic Universe television series She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (2022), in which he is played by Wil Deusner.
