K’ai

The planet K'ai, although outwardly primitive, has remnants of long-forgotten high technology and sorcery. Its people are green-skinned and for the most part blonde haired, but otherwise human. The lands were, at one time, threatened by a number of menaces ranging from attacks by the gigantic warthos (warthog like beasts larger than elephants) to the armies of the Warlord Visus. The Hulk appeared in K'ai during an attack of the warthos and drove the huge monsters away. When the people came out to greet him, the Hulk was startled because they are green-skinned, like him and that they welcomed him rather than running away. Becoming the legend and savior of K’ai, the Hulk would also commence an infamous relationship with Princess Jarella of K'ai—foiling a sinister plot by the villain Psyklop soon afterwards. Jarella later journeyed to Earth with the Hulk. She died while saving a boy from being crushed under a falling building. Captain Mar-Vell shrunk the Hulk so that he could return Jarella's body to K'ai for a proper burial—where she rests to this very day. The people of K’ai still keep stories and memories of their princess and their hero in their hearts.
