In 2005, Marvel‘s team of heroes was a team of young superheroes. They were ranked as Scarlet Witch’s 2 sons, Ant-Man’s daughter i.e. Cassie Land and of course Future Hawkeye Kate Bishop. The heart of the team was none other than Hulkling, Teddy Alan. He had a deep history in the Marvel Universe. Despite having the name of Hulk, he preferred to be around his father, first Captain Marvel.
The first Captain Marvel had been named Mar-Vell. He had turned his people in order to help humanity. He was kidnapped after 3 years of good work. He fell in love with Skrull Princess Anelle, while he was in imprisonment. They had a child out of that affair.
Anelle had her maiden carry the child and protect him on earth. He was Teddy. he was raised as a human being who was known about the powers he had but unaware of the origin of those powers. He had not met his parents because they were long dead.
Hulkling: An Appalling Superhero
Teddy wouldn’t be acquainted with the Marvel Universe until after the incidents of Avengers Disassembled. Unknown to the heroes of Marvel Universe, Vision had collected a list of new young heroes pertaining to past Avengers. This was known as the Avengers Fail-Safe Program. The schedule was given rise to allow the Avengers to improve in the circumstance that earth’s greatest heroes were either overthrown in battle or dispersed. Iron Lad had used that list to enroll a new committee of Avengers to help his future self. Teddy was included in that list.
He had the powers of Kree and Skrull that had made him a formidable superhero. He had the ability to shapeshift that gave him a powerset of many. Leaving his powers aside, it was his relationship with Wiccan that was significant throughout. While Hulkling and Wiccan were not Marvel’s first gay characters. But they were the most substantial for a long time.
Though originally only a crucial character in the Young Avengers, Teddy has gone far to evolve as a significant force in the Marvel Universe. After a brief retirement for both Hulkling and Wiccan, Hulkling would put up with his throne as king of the Skrull and would become Emperor Dorrek VIII.
Marvel celebrates his heroes. Hulkling and Captain Marvel, initially have not started as major characters, but writers have given rise to their identities.
