History

The early life and history of Blastaar presumably matches that of his Earth-616 counterpart.

With the death of Death, Kree hero Mar-Vell would use the items of great power he had collected to create a new realm called Paradise. Housed in the heart of the Negative Zone, this realm would be for those in the Realm of the Dead who admitted that they were truly dead. Those admitted to this realm would be given a portion of the Cosmic Cube to consume, and they would be granted with the power to create a reality that would be for each person their ideal paradise.[1]

But as more souls entered Paradise, it began to expand and consume entire worlds within the Negative Zone. Annihilus and Blastaar would blame Reed Richards and use the Negative Zone Portal to attack the Earth. Arriving in the Baxter Building, Annhihilus, Blastaar and their followers would crash a tour of the Baxter Building. This would lead to a clash against the law, the Guardians of the Galaxy and the Heralds. The clash would ultimately end when Reed Richards arrived, revealing he was not behind the phenomenon, and agreed to help investigate it.[2]

It was later revealed that Paradise was consuming worlds, but was instead a barrier that was intended to stop the Elders of the Universe and Celestials from further manipulating the universe. As Mar-Vell's plans came into fruition, the barrier expanded across the entire universe. It is presumed that Blastaar and the other citizens of the Negative Zone returned to their homes, however their ultimate fate is unknown.[3]

Attributes

Powers

Superhuman Strength: Blastaar possesses superhuman strength sufficient to lift about 50 tons.

Superhuman Speed: Blastaar is capable of running and moving at speeds greater than even the finest human athlete.

Superhuman Stamina: Blastaar's musculature generates considerably less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of a human being. He can exert himself at peak capacity for several days before fatigue begins to impair him.

Superhuman Durability: Blastaar's body is highly resistant to all forms of physical injury. He is capable of withstanding the impact of .30 caliber, armor piercing machine gun shells, temperature extremes from as low as -200 degrees Fahrenheit to as high as 11,000 degrees Fahrenheit, falls from tremendous heights, great impact forces, and powerful energy beams without sustaining injury. Blastaar is also capable of surviving for weeks at a time without food or water. He can also survive in an airless vacuum for several months at a time by willing himself into a state of suspended animation.

Superhuman Agility: Despite his great bulk, Blastaar's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete.

Superhuman Reflexes: Blastaar's reaction time is enhanced to a level that is beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete.

Force Blasts: Blastaar can generate concussive blasts, presumably by some biological means, and direct them through his fingers. These blasts have a range of 1,000 feet and can penetrate 6-inch titanium-plated steel.

  • Flight: Blastaar is capable of using this same energy to propel himself at tremendous speeds. He is able to fly at a top speed of approximately 25,000 mph.
