First Appearance: Journey Into Mystery I#103 (April, 1964)

Powers: As the "mightiest of the Boar-Gods," Gullin possesses superhuman durability and strength, at least Class 50, but his strength is far below Thor's. He also once wielded a large hammer, which was easily shattered by Thor's hammer Mjolnir. He also wielded an ordinary wooden club.
    As a god of some sort, he presumably had an extended lifespan and resistance to conventional disease, etc.

    Like the other Boar-Gods, he had tusks, cloven hooves on his feet, and two finger plus a thumb on each hand. Gullin had a ring in his nose in his (apparently) earliest chronological appearance, but not in others.

Height: Approximately 8'
Weight: Approximately 1100 lbs.
Eyes: Dark...perhaps brown
Hair: Brown

History:

(Thor Annual#11 (fb)) - While the Asgardian gods feasted and toasted at a banquet celebrating Thor's being given his enchanted hammer, Mjolnir, Gullin led his fellow Boar-Gods to cross a bridge under the shadow of night Asgard to conquer them, and steal their treasures. Having been testing Mjolnir, Thor observed their approach and confronted them, warning them to turn back or face the might of Mjolnir. Gullin taunted Thor as a runt and threatened to kill him before he could warn the other gods, but with a swing of Mjolnir, Thor drove back Gullin and at least four other Boar-Gods. When the Boar-Gods, by sheer numbers, threatened to overwhelm Thor, he used Mjolnir to shatter the bridge on which they were standing, causing them to fall into a lake. Gullin vowed that the Boar-Gods would fight until the end of days if need be till they overcame Asgard.

(Journey Into Mystery I#103/2) - In the course of Thor's quest to Mirmir, which allegedly led to the creation of human beings, the young god encountered Gullin the Boar God, who challenged him to battle. Thor quickly shattered Gullin's hammer, after which the Boar God fled.

(Marvel Graphic Novel No. 15: The Raven Banner) - Gullin, or another Boar-God (and possibly many or all of them), joined the Giants of Jotunheim and other enemies of Asgard in warring against the gods of Asgard in the Plain of Ida (near the border between the nation of Asgard and the portals to Jotunheim). Grim Magnus, bearer of the Raven Banner, noted that his pennon brought victory to those who fought beneath it, though the standard bearer must always die in battle. Though the giant Snorth slew Magnus, who Magnus noted that as he fell his allies were sounding the trumpets of victory. Realizing this was true, Asgard's enemies fled to regroup.

(Marvel Graphic Novel No. 15: The Raven Banner - BTS) - Gullin and/or other Boar-Gods may have joined the giants in another assault on the Asgardians that was nearly victorious until Grim Magnus' son, Greyval Grimson, returned with the Raven Banner. Inspired and/or empowered by that, the gods drove off their enemies yet again.

(Avengers III#1) - Gullin was among the numerous Asgardian menaces sent by Morgan Le Fay to battle the Avengers while she seized ultimate power of the Twilight Sword. Gullin fought Moondragon in Las Vegas, but vanished when Le Fay recalled her agents.

(Avengers Prime#5) - Gullin (or another Boar-God clad in armor) joined Thor's army in battle against Hela and the dead from Hel.

Boar-Gods

    The Boar-Gods are native to the Asgard dimension and are enemies of the Asgardian gods. They are led by their mightiest warrior, Gullin, and covet the treasures of others. They revere an unidentified tusked creator being, as seen by one of their number invoking, "By the tusk of the Creator!"

(Thor Annual#11 (fb)) - While the Asgardian gods feasted and toasted at a banquet celebrating Thor's being given his enchanted hammer, Mjolnir, Gullin led his fellow Boar-Gods to cross a bridge under the shadow of night Asgard to conquer them, and steal their treasures. Having been testing Mjolnir, Thor observed their approach and confronted them, warning them to turn back or face the might of Mjolnir. Gullin taunted Thor as a runt and threatened to kill him before he could warn the other gods, but with a swing of Mjolnir, Thor drove back Gullin and at least four other Boar-Gods. When the Boar-Gods, by sheer numbers, threatened to overwhelm Thor, he used Mjolnir to shatter the bridge on which they were standing, causing them to fall into a lake. Gullin vowed that the Boar-Gods would fight until the end of days if need be till they overcame Asgard.
