"Skaar's a savage hero on a savage world," explains Pak. "We'll root for him as he struggles for survival the same way we root for the great predators in nature documentaries—the animal inside of us can't get enough of that visceral fight for life and death. But we'll also root for him as this wild child slashes his way towards self-discovery—will he be an animal or a man, a monster or a hero? All of us in our supposedly civilized world make moral choices every day that define who we are—Skaar's story will resonate with our own, but with vastly higher stakes. And swords. And monsters. And Fillian warlords and Imperial princess and deadly Wildebots and secret cities and the terrible truths of Prophet Rock. Dontcha dare miss it!"
But wait—who is Skaar? How dare he claim any intimate connection with the Hulk? "He's the Hulk's son! And his mother was Caiera the Oldstrong, one of the most powerful mortals on Sakaar!" Pak screams, clearly relishing his power as guiding force over All Things Hulk. "And he was abandoned as a scalded embryo in radioactive seas after the incineration of his mother by a nuclear explosion! And have you checked out that insane cover from Carlo Pagulayan? This is the book I've been itching to dig my teeth into for months now, the much-ballyhooed super-secret third part of the trilogy that began with 'Planet Hulk' and WORLD WAR HULK. And it will be awesome.
"Look, the Hulk thinks his unborn child died in the explosion that killed Caiera and incinerated Crown City. Skaar only knows that his father left him to burn in the radioactive seas. Could make for an interesting family reunion some day."
