Let me start by saying that I do this because I am one of you guys, and that the following is made in jest with no malice intended.

wait so there is Shiar..Kree, Skrulls, the Immortals (is that right?) Did I miss anyone? As soon as a cosmic Marvel reference comes up I go blank, I dont know anything about it. I only know about the skrulls from the SecretInvasion books and the Cpt Marvell turns into one? wtf is going on!
Quote:
Gladiator is Praetor (leader) of the Shi'ar Imperial Guard. This dude is the proctector to ths Shi'ar emperor/empress.
They are more alien races than that but the Kree, Skrull, & Shi'ar are the main ones that have tangled with Earth's heroes from time to time. MarvelDirectory.com Quote:
Quote:
Kree and Skrull pretty much reference individual races. The Shi'ar is reference to the Shi'ar empire of the Shi'ar galaxy and contains many many different races. Gladiator is one of Marvel's 3 or 4 Superman knock-off characters. Like Superman his powers are flight, super strength, invulnerability, super speed, heat vision, frost breath, and his sole weakness is a form a rare radiation. I also think he is the last surviving member of his race.
Quote:
The Kree are an advanced race. They have high technology capabilities but have reached a step in evolution where they can no longer grow. There have been many Kree heroes of earth including Captain Mar' vell who died of cancer. They are also responsible for the Terrigan mysts and the creation of at least 5 different races of Inhumans. The most populuarly known one is the Inhumans which were led by Bolt (before he disapeared in an explosion with Vulcan ((summers brother)) durring war of kings) Medusa now leads the Inhumans and the Kree with a maraige uniting the empire between Crystal (Quicksilvers ex-wife) and Ronin the Acusor.
The Kree had a long battle with the shapeshifting aliens the Skrull in the Kree/Skrull wars. The Kree prety much won an the Skrull homeworld was destroyed by Galactus. The remaining skrulls were trying to establish a new home on Earth. The Shiar' are pretty much the Emperial China or Rome of the Universe. They stole their power from their brother race the M'kranns when they aquired the M'krann crystal (home to the pheonix force and unimmaginal cosmic power). The Shiar were led by Llilandra (proffesor X's lady) until Vulcan took over and started an intergalactic war. A resistance led by the Star Jammers, Inhumans, Kree, and a Defected Gladiaotr. (He had to be convinced he served the right full ruler of the Shiar not just the current ruler.) They won their battle when blackbolt and vulcan "died". Llilandra was assassinated by a member of the Fraternity of Raptors (a bunch of people identical to Darkhawk pretty much) Upon her assassination Gladiator was made Emporer of the Shiar' As his duty to the Empire he reluctantly has accepted the role. Gladiator is a Strontian. Llandra's brother had his entire race killed for fear they would become too powerful and ussurp the Shiar Empire. Two members survive as far as we know. Gladiator and his cousin Xenith. Strontians are creatures of will power. It is more fair to compare them to green lanturns than to Superman. They can do anything they believe they can do. Gladiator has only met defeat few times, one of them was to the X-man Cannonball. They are not only physically strong and resistant, but their minds are not easily infiltrated by telepaths, especially if they suspect it. Like the Hulk we have seen no actual power limit for Gladiator. If he believes he can do it....He CAN! I especially think that part starting at 9:02 and ending at 9:20 is quite apropos to the discussion above. Last edited by laurenluna1977; 12-17-2010 at 05:31 PM.. |

probably ... we are grown men that get overly attached to action figures ... but, as the dog said, "who give a Frak!" My gf is just a big a geek with the stuff she cares/gets obssessed about ... I don't think she deserve a pass simply because it is also what most people get obssessed about
