"How do you know about this?"
―Korath[src]

Korath the Pursuer was a Kree and a member of Starforce. At some point after Carol Danvers learnt the truth about the Skrulls, Korath left Starforce and got cybernetic enhancements, working solely for Ronan the Accuser.

Biography[]

Captain Marvel[]

Korath and his Starforce unit were called upon to complete a mission so boarded the Helion. Korath told his team how he had faced Skrulls before, specifically one that had disguised them self as Korath. Vers joked that it was so horrifying because he wasn't better looking. Bron-Char defended Korath, saying he was good looking. Yon-Rogg interrupted the banter and disclosed the mission: to respond to a distress signal from Kree scout Soh-Larr on the planet Torfa.

On Torfa, Korath, Yon-Rogg and Bron-Char approached the local inhabitants to try and find out what was going on but soon realised it was a Skrull ambush and had to fight back the hordes of Skrulls. Yon-Rogg told them to fall back to the Helion so they retreated but the Skrulls ambush was successful and they kidnapped Vers.

Korath piloted the Helion as they searched for Vers. When Ronan contacted them and blamed them for the failed mission, Korath almost revealed where they were headed but Yon-Rogg stopped him. Starforce finally reached planet C-53 and discovered Mar-Vell's Laboratory. They boarded the cruiser and took everyone on board prisoner. Carol broke free and fought the Kree, unleashing her full power. Although they put up a good fight, Starforce lost out to Carol and fled.

    • Super Strength: Korath was stronger than the average human. His hits could send fully grown humanoids several feet through the air.
    • Invulnerability: Korath was more resistant to harm than the average human. He withstood several photon blasts from Carol Danvers and a direct blast from a quad-blaster without injury.
    • Super Agility: Korath was more agile than the average human. He was able to spar with both Carol Danvers and Drax the Destroyer and land hits on both before being overpowered.

Abilities[]

  • Master Combatant: Korath trained throughout his life in hand-to-hand combat with the Starforce, although he often uses his natural powers to his advantage.

  • Expert Swordsman: Korath utilised two Kree Energy Swords when he was a part of Starforce and wielded them with great efficiency in battle.
