Kalibak

Encyclopedia : K : KA : KAL : Kalibak

In comic books, Kalibak was the first son of Darkseid from Apokolips in Jack Kirby's Fourth World meta-series. He has gone on to battle Superman on numerous occasions. His progidious strength (roughly equivalent to Superman's) and violent temper have garnered him the nickname Kalibak the Cruel.

Other media

He has appeared in the last two incarnations of the original Animated series, Super Friends, as his first televised appearance where he alongside of Darkseid were played by Frank Welker.

Kalibak later was featured on where he was voiced by Michael Dorn.

In Justice League, Michael Dorn reprises his role of Kalibak at the time when Brainiac invaded Apokolips. He later returned as a member of the Superman Revenge Squad in a plot to kill Superman. During his second attack, he ended up engaging Lobo in battle.

In Justice League Unlimited, Granny Goodness appeared before Mister Miracle and Big Barda to free Kalibak from the X-Pits where Virman Vunderbarr has him in order for Granny Goodness to release Oberon from her clutches. With the help of the Flash, they free Kalibak only to trick Granny Goodness with Martian Manhunter (who was disguised as Kalibak) so that Flash would find Oberon. It turned out Kalibak is now in Earth's prison.
