Who is Xal-Kor?

Xal-Kor is a Silver Age superhero created by Richard 'Grass' Green for Star-Studded Comics, a celebrated fan-published Texas anthology. The character shared adventures with heroes like Dr. Weird and The Eye across multiple amateur anthology titles.

Xal-Kor burst onto the Silver Age scene in 1964, born from the imagination of Richard "Grass" Green in the pages of Star-Studded Comics β€” one of the most beloved fan-published comics of its era, a labor of love out of Texas that punched well above its weight. Over a remarkable four-decade span, this character kept remarkable company, sharing adventures with the likes of Dr. Weird, The Eye, and an eclectic roster of heroes across titles including Fandom's Finest Comics and Heroes vs. Hitler. Twelve catalog appearances across 41 years tells the story of a character who endured in the hearts of dedicated comics enthusiasts long after the mainstream had moved on β€” a true artifact of grassroots comics culture at its most passionate and inventive.
