---

Sadly, he was forced to watch his children die before him due to accelerated age. They moved from young children through to adulthood, eventually growing old and dying to dust.

Aleta blamed Starhawk for their deaths and never forgave him. This event forever damaged their relationship and the two siblings eventually divorced. During his time with the Guardians of the Galaxy, he would often leave his team without a word on where he was going or when he would return.

In a few cases, he would leave to tend to his children on their Earth-like asteroid world. However, there were many times when his internal struggles were so great that he would leave his team behind to deal with his internal fight for control. Many of his selfish decisions have led to negative consequences.

During a battle with the Stark, the two siblings were inadvertently separated, but Stakar was left in a weakened condition and began to fade from existence. These actions, considered an assault on his sister, led to Starhawk being kicked out of the Guardians of the Galaxy. Upon merging with his sister in one such instance, they both existed within the same body at the same time.

The merging of their powers created the ability of Starhawk to use shadowy forces and construct manipulation. He convinced his former team, the Guardians, to travel back in time and effectively eliminate the Badoons before they could take over the galaxy. Starhawk then faced off against numerous versions of himself. They proved too strong for him, however, so he had to relinquish control to his sister for help.

This event would lead to a significant change in his life. Stakar's constant struggles for control of his body manifested in several physical and mental altercations with his ex-wife, Aleta. For a long time, he tried to convince Aleta that Hawk-God was always controlling them and Stakar promised that he would never do anything to hurt her. In the end, however, it was revealed that Stakar lied about Hawk-God's control and he had been manipulating her the whole time.

While in dominant control of their body during the Infinity War arc , Aleta successfully defeated him and took control for good.

In Guardians of the Galaxy issue 33, her punishment was to force him into an infant state, doomed to relive his entire life on an endless loop. Aleta left him in that state and assumed the identity of Starhawk again with the Guardians, leaving her adoptive brother in the 20th century.

Since he was left to relive his life endlessly, Stakar gained awareness of the future. He became aware of events to come and would attempt to manipulate them to change the outcome. Since he was left in the past, he continued to repeat this cycle for years. Technically, he does not have powers of precognition. He is, instead, using knowledge of his previous lives for his decision-making.

As such, his memories have sometimes been unclear or jumbled due to his constant manipulation of events and time. However, he still used this knowledge to his advantage. When the Guardians of the Galaxy returned to their timeline, Stakar was awaiting their arrival and challenged his sister, the new Starhawk, because of her betrayal.

In one of the more epic battles across space and time, the Guardians of the Galaxy faced off against Michael Korvac in their timeline. The Guardians pursued him and joined forces with the Avengers of the timeline. During his confrontation, Korvac managed to disintegrate Starhawk but, in fear of his absence being noticed, Korvac returned the hero back to life. During confrontations with the Avengers and the Guardians, Stakar could not see Korvac and was confused by his comrades speaking to an empty space.

With the knowledge of events of the past years, Starhawk attempted to correct the mistakes of the past. In one such manipulation, he managed to bring the members of the Guardians of the Galaxy together by beginning the chain reaction to their formation. In Guardians of the Galaxy issue 26, their origin story revealed that each member was the last survivor of their own planet and came together to fight against the Badoon.

Throughout the comic, you can see glimpses of Starhawk making slight changes to events to ensure their encounter unfolds. By the end of the comic, Starhawk can be seen leaving the planet as the readers get their first glimpse at the new team reflecting on how fate must have brought them together. This version of Starhawk traveled back in time to prevent the creation of the Guardians of the Galaxy team of Earth When he arrived, he found his former colleague Major Victory in existence.

The Guardians captured her and Major Victory tried to reason with her. She eventually learned that Black Bolt was the cause for the disturbance and realized she was wrong about the situation. Honestly, this is no surprise given that early production title for the movie was Guardians Another member being introduced is Aleta played by Michelle Yeoh.

It will be interesting to see how the complicated history of both Stakar and Aleta will be portrayed in the MCU. As demonstrated throughout the comic book history of the Guardians of the Galaxy, they often travel throughout alternate timelines. Do you have any trivia to share about Starhawk from Guardians of the Galaxy?

To their surprise Stakar had no obvious mutant traits, appearing baseline human. He was adopted by a Reaver, named Ogord. Stakar was an intellectual and pursued studies in science and archaeology. He and his adoptive sister Aleta accidentally revived the dormant Hawk God and were transformed by his powers.

For a time, they were both trapped in the same body, alternating place with each other as the situation required. The two adoptive siblings have had a complex relationship, ranging from intense rivalry and hatred for each other to at times pursuing romantic relationship with each other. When the Hawk-God allowed them to split briefly, they had three children together - Tara , John and Sita. When they joined back together, Starhawk could not ignore his destiny to the stars and created a Earth-like home for his children on an asteroid. At all times, no matter who was in possession of the body, they could contact their children from anywhere.

The children were eventually captured by Ogord and used against Starhawk in retaliation for him not choosing to use his powers for the evil purposes of the Reavers. His mind controlled children siphoned nearly all of his life force, so when it came time to save them he did not have the energy to do so. Starhawk was unable to prevent the children's deaths, something Aleta would blame him for.

Starhawk first met the Guardians and the Defenders in a fight against the Badoon. He stayed with the Guardians when the teams parted ways. He has since been retconned to be the son of the Earth versions of Quasar and Kismet. He is half-human and half of the same artificially created race as Adam Warlock. He was born on planet Vesper but was abducted shortly after birth. He was raised on planet Arcturus IV by adoptive parents and learned much later they were not his biological parents.

Starhawk and Aleta both became members of the Guardians of the Galaxy. In a battle with the Stark, they were attacked with a barrage of lasers while trying to change places with one another. Somehow this energy caused them to finally split, making them able to live their separate lives. But they were not meant to split so soon. Slowly, Stakar began to grow opaque and transparent. In a misunderstanding, the Spirit of Vengeance further injured Stakar and he began to slip from existence. He attempted to fuse back together with Aleta, but she refused to let him.

She would provide some of her light powers to keep him alive out of sympathy. He was confined on the Guardians' ship in a special encasement to prevent him from completely disappearing. Eventually, he would combine with her anyway, against her will, right as she was to defeat Malevolence and take the place as Matriarch of the Universal Church of Truth.

For this, Starhawk was kicked out of the Guardians just as Starhawk had told Martinex would happen. With Aleta back in the Nether-Realm, Stakar attempted to convince her that it was the Hawk-God all along who tormented and controlled them both. This really was the Hawk-God himself, who was also trapped with them.

He defeated and consumed Aleta and the Starhawk went through a metamorphosis. Transformed, both Stakar and Aleta were in command of a single body, existing simultaneously. This combined the powers of Aleta and Starhawk, making darkness constructs instead of light. The Hawk-God also took more control of Stakar, making him more devious and evil.

While Starhawk had been unanimously kicked out of the Guardians of the Galaxy, he was allowed to remain near the team because of Aleta's influence. Although they could no longer change bodies, Aleta could speak with her voice through their new body. They continually fought for control and Aleta still resisted her capture, being able to harm Starhawk from the inside. The Dark Starhawk would convince the Guardians to rebel against Major Victory and go back in time to wipe out the Badoon before they could conquer the solar system and commit genocide.

Going back in time, they arrived during the Infinity War and Stakar was forced to face multiple evil doppelgangers of himself. He pleaded for Aleta's assistance, but she refused. In order to survive, he granted her control of the body, although briefly. The battle weakened Stakar greatly and when Aleta continued her internal assault he was forced to reveal the truth - it was him that tormented her all along, not the Hawk-God. In anger, she defeated him in his weakened state and reverted him back to an infant.

Aleta took the place of Starhawk and Stakar was sent back to his infant body to start his life over once again. But naturally, he would not be gone long, as Starhawk exists in multiple realities he would soon return. The existence of two Starhawks gained the attention of Eternity , who sent the Hawk-God to prove his worthiness and handle the situation. The Hawk-God chose to fuse their hands together and force them to work together. They traveled back in time to undo damage to the time line caused by the Guardians leaving an Alpha Centaurian artifact in the past.

On their way back, Aleta sensed danger to the Guardians and forced Stakar to follow. They arrived at a meeting of cosmic beings.

Their presence infuriated the Hawk-God, but he did not kill them and instead showed some restraint and encased them in energy. He released them although without the Starhawk power when he and the other abstracts were forced to battle Protege.

Both were judged by the Hawk-God and Aleta chose to relinquish her Starhawk power. Stakar was given back his role as Starhawk and he was grateful, but he was left with the knowledge that his origin was not as he had thought it was and the mutants he was found with were not his parents. This lack of knowledge shook Starhawk to his core, giving no meaning to the vast amounts of information he possessed from his many lives.

Without this basic knowledge of his own existence, he could have no inner peace. In an effort to find this information, he sought out Hollywood , believing his long life to hold some insight. Hollywood directed him to the Silver Surfer , the current Protector of the Universe , who Starhawk found nearly dead from an attack by Galactus. Starhawk was able to revive the Surfer and wished to use his Quantum Bands to find the knowledge. Eon appeared and forbid it, attempting to revert Starhawk to a child again, much as Aleta did.

But Starhawk's resolve was strong and he resisted. This action impressed Eon, who gave Starhawk the Quantum Bands and informed him of his true father - Quasar! But the Quantum Bands began to corrupt Starhawk and the Silver Surfer fought him to reclaim his bands. After losing the bands, he still sought the location of his father's death, the Abrogate. He soon discovered that the Abrogate was a sentient being capable of reversing all energy. Starhawk was killed in the battle just as his father was.
