It would awkward if this and Emil Blonsky ever met. Introduced in X-Men #104 (1977) by Chris Claremont and Dave Cockrum, the gentle giant Ch’Od was a slave in one of the Shi’Ar’s mining camp when he met Christopher Summers, Raza and Hepzibah. Together they led a rebellion and escaped on the starship, the Starjammer. They would form a space pirate group, taking their name from the ship. They worked to try and bring down the mad emperor D’Ken working with both Lilandra and the X-men to dethrone the tyrant. They are responsible for allowing Lilandra to take the throne after her brother death.

Ch’Od would be a constant member of the Starjammers, helping the likes of Professor X gain a new body following his infection by the Brood. The X-men weren’t the only Earth heroes that worked with the group as they also gained the trust of the Avengers. Ch’Od would remain in the group following the death of Corsair at the hand of Vulcan, Corsair’s own son. He would come under the leadership of Havok, Corsair’s second son and older brother of Vulcan. He would help the team stop Vulcan and the Shi’Ar’s war with the Kree, who were being ruled by the Inhumans. This war saw as well as Lilandra. Ch’Od would remain with the Starjammers afterwards.

As one of the four main members of the Starjammers, Ch’Od has been requested of fans for years. This was particularly easy for both Hasbro and Toybiz to do as, like how they did with the 5inch lines, he could have been a straight repaint of Abomination. He would receive a figure with Cr’reee as a BAF as part of the 2023 X-men wave.
