You're forgiven if you've never heard of the Hulk's Kronan companion, Korg—you're also forgiven if you've got no idea what in God's name a Kronan is. Another character from the "Planet Hulk" storyline, Korg is part of a genderless species of "Stone Men" from Saturn. As such, his body is covered in an impenetrable hide of rocky material à la the Thing, and he stands at a staggering 8 feet tall. While he only appears for a split second in the film's trailer, his presence in the film is sure to be intriguing—after all, he's portrayed by the film's director, Taika Waititi, who claims the Kronan will be acting as something of a mentor to Thor, "[showing] him the ropes."

While the comics see Korg sporting a lighter shade of stone along with two pauldrons (one on each shoulder), a leather harness, and a loincloth—an outfit similar to that which he wore in his brief Thor: The Dark World cameo—he appears to be rocking (pardon the pun) an outfit very similar to that worn by his co-gladiator the Hulk, with one exposed shoulder and a blood-splattered harness bearing a mysterious insignia on its buckle.
