10 Most Powerful Children of Hulk in Marvel Comics, Ranked

Summary Hulk's children share his internal struggles and possess varying degrees of power.

Some Hulk offspring are minor characters, while others like Carmilla Black and Skaar have unique abilities and storylines.

In the Earth-807128 reality, Bruce Banner has numerous children with She-Hulk, forming the Hulk Gang, which includes Billy-Bob Banner and Cambria Banner.

One of the most popular Marvel superheroes and an integral part of The Avengers, the Hulk has sired many progeny through the multiple different Marvel timelines. Some of his children fight alongside him in benevolence and goodwill while others are exceedingly strong, antagonistic forces that could destroy universes if left unchecked.

The Hulk is well known for his internal struggles, something many of his children share. In the comics, some of the Hulk's kids are given very little attention, with a select few only making one appearance ever. Still, many are notoriously powerful, giving their green-tinted father a run for his money.

10 Bruce Willis Sylvester Chan, Hulk's Future Son

Abominations #3 (Ivan Velez Jr, Angel Medina, Brad Vancata, Glynis Oliver)

Introduced in Abominations #3 for his first and only comics appearance, Bruce may be the son of either the time-displaced Hulk or his future Maestro form. What is known is that Betty-6 is the baby's mother. Betty-6, while pregnant, was on the run from Abomination, so she traveled back in time to find protection in New York City's tunnels.

The story has a positive ending since Betty survives the assassination, has the baby, and marries the dystopian Librito. However, the story ends with Bruce Chan as a baby, so readers never got the chance to see his full potential placing him among the weakest of Hulk's children.

9 Thaddeus & Rick, Maestro's Future Sons

Maestro #1 (Peter David, German Peralta, Jesus Aburtov, Dale Keown, Jason Keith)

Introduced in Maestro #1, Thaddeus and Rick are Bruce and Betty Banner's sons in the Earth-9200 timeline. The kids were seemingly twins, one of whom is green. Intended as minor characters in the Maestro storyline, Thaddeus and Rick only appeared in one issue.

As a result, not much information can be gained on them, especially in regard to their power. This is because at the end of Maestro #1, the pair die along with their mother in the nuclear apocalypse, so we never get to see their full power.

8 The Hulk Gang, Bruce's Kids & Grandkids (with She-Hulk)

Wolverine #66 (Mark Millar, Steve McNiven, Dexter Vines, Morry Hollowell)

Part of the Earth-807128 reality, The Hulk Gang Enforcers are present in the world of Old Man Logan. In this realm, Bruce had countless children with his cousin, She-Hulk, of all people (talk about a dysfunctional family).

Regardless, many of these children had some gamma powers, but nothing like Bruce. After killing Logan's family for no reason other than boredom, Logan massacres all the Hulk Gang but two of them. The Hulk Gang may be physically strong but their dim-wittedness and plain dementedness prevent them from ever being among the most powerful of the Hulk's children.

7 Billy-Bob Banner, The Hulk Gang's Lone Survivor

Wolverine: Old Man Logan Giant-Size #1 (Mark Millar, Steve McNiven)

While the names of most of the Hulk Gang members are known, they function almost entirely as a unit. But if one must be highlighted, it is Billy-Bob Banner, and for the best reasons possible. After Wolverine makes his bloody massacre of the Hulk Gang, and is eaten by Pappy Hulk, the next chapter of the story is delivered by following Billy-Bob. The one grandson of Hulk who was absent from the bloodbath.

Why? Because he had to pick up some Jim Belushi movies from a friend. The real show was about to start, as Billy-Bob witnessed a healed and reconstituted Logan burst forth from Pappy Hulk's stomach, and take the youngest member of the family, Bruce, Jr. with him when he left. Billy-Bob lives, since he obviously has his priorities in the right place.

Not only is Billy-Bob the first character to correctly identify this rejuvenated Logan as 'Wolverine,' but it is also his coat that is given to Logan, becoming an iconic part of the alternate universe hero's wardrobe.

6 Scorpion, Hulk's Daughter

Amazing Fantasy #7 (Fred Van Lente, Leonard Kirk)

Rumor has it that Carmilla Black is Bruce Banner's daughter with Monica Rappaccini, later adopted. Interestingly, her immunity to toxins suggests some connection to Banner, who was able to absorb gamma energy without dying.

Debuting in Amazing Fantasy (Vol. 2) #7, Carmilla Black gained her namesake when her arm mutated into a poisonous stinger when she was just a teen. Genetically engineered by A.I.M, she has a multitude of powers that make her an unparalleled asset. Just some of her abilities include immunity, toxic absorption, and power neutralizing. Being an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D at times has also gifted Carmilla with the skill of espionage.

5 Cambria Banner, Hulk's 'Old Man Logan' Daughter

Old Man Logan (Vol 2) #25 (Ed Brisson, Mike Deodato Jr.)

Originally a member of the Hulk Gang, Cambria struck out on her own. Eventually, she ended up raising the young Hulks of the family after they were transported to Earth-616. She seems to be a full-on Hulk, unlike some of the other gang members. Therefore, posing more of a threat than her siblings.

An example of her fortitude is when she worked with Logan and Hawkeye to defeat Maestro, an incredibly intimidating villain. Moreover, she's many steps ahead of her troublesome siblings in her propensity for teamwork alone, qualities sorely lacking in other members of the Hulk Gang.

4 Lyra, Hulk's Daughter (and Future She-Hulk)

Hulk: Raging Thunder #1 (Jeff Parker, Mitch Breitweiser)

The daughter of Hulk from an alternate future, Lyra also known as the Savage She-Hulk, is an interesting take on the Hulk character. As Lyra gets angrier, she becomes weaker, in a strange paradox to the traditional Hulk as audiences know it.

Intended to be a powerful warrior, Lyra has the power and lineage of Hulk and Thundra, culminating in an incredibly potent strength that she uses in conjunction with martial arts training. Through meditation, Lyra has learned the ultimate Hulk gamma power, how to calm herself even in the most frustrating times, which can make her grow stronger. As a result, Lyra is not only physically imposing but also very self-possessing.

3 Bruce Jr., Hulk's 'Old Man Logan' Son

Wolverine #66 (Mark Millar, Steve McNiven, Dexter Vines, Morry Hollowell)

Hulk's forgotten son Bruce Jr. was a baby of the Hulk Gang spared by Wolverine in the Old Man Logan series. He grew up as his reality's only Hulk and became a member of the Avengers of the Wasteland. Also, he defeated the Devourer of Worlds, Galactus in an amazing show of strength.

On top of the impressive abilities that he inherited from the Gamma radiation physiology of his father, Pappy Banner in the Earth-807128 reality, Bruce Banner Jr. is also a genius. Coincidentally, his intellect actually increases when he is not in Hulk form.

2 Skaar, Hulk's 'Planet Hulk' Son

World War Hulk #5 (Greg Pak, John Romita Jr.)

Close

Sometimes considered Marvel's loneliest hero, Skaar is the offspring of the Hulk and Caiera the Oldstrong on Planet Sakaar. Both parents have bestowed their own gifts and powers onto their son, culminating in an extremely powerful creature. Possessing the superhuman strength and stamina of his father and the Old Power from his mother, Skaar is able to connect to and manipulate a planet.

Skaar surprisingly survived the destruction of Sakaar and ended up on Earth, where he struggled to forge a relationship with his estranged father. Skaar was also briefly a member of Norman Osborn's Dark Avengers, but his heroic nature quickly prevailed.

1 Hiro-Kala, Hulk's Other 'Planet Hulk' Son

Skaar: Son of Hulk #2 (Greg Pak, Ron Garney)

Hiro-Kala is easily the Hulk's strongest child. He not only defeated the formidable and villainous Galactus, who had destroyed his homeworld, but also enslaved him and turned him into his own weapon. Introduced in Skaar: Son of Hulk #2, Hiro-Kala is Skaar's brother. Consequently, Hiro-Kala was able to gain access to the Old Power and found a way to combine it with the Power Cosmic, creating the New Power.

In an intriguing twist, he has the ability to change into a Hulk form, however, it is only through love, not rage. While it has not been seen yet, the transformation is said to be so powerful that it would threaten the universe. Due to his mastery of multiple cosmic forces, Hiro-Kala is the most powerful of the children of Hulk at the moment, but more offsprings of Bruce Banner could come out in the future to take this title.
