The 10 Most Powerful Shiar Ranked

The Shi’ar are one of the most powerful alien races out there – and they do not want you to forget it. While their attitude may be bigger than their bite, it isn’t by much. For those less familiar with the Shi’ar, they are a humanoid race descended from avians. Their gods are also very present in their worlds – and no, it isn’t quite the same thing as the Asgardians.

The Shi’ar race boasts dozens of powerful characters. Some admittedly stronger than others. Most of them are boast astonishing strength, and those that we know the most about are some of the toughest fighters around. The Shi’ar also had a tendency to absorb other powerful races under their wings (no pun intended), enhancing the prowess of the Shi’ar Empire even further. With all of this in mind, here are ten of their strongest warriors.

10 Bloodwing

The 10 Most Powerful Shiar Ranked

Bloodwing became infamous amongst certain Marvel fans for his attempts to kill Captain Marvel. As in, the original Captain Marvel in the comics, Mar-Vell. Some might consider Bloodwing an assassin for this reason, but his reasons for targeting Mar-Vell were a lot more personal.

Bloodwing is a warrior through and through. He’s a strong supporter of D’Ken (you’ll see him later in this list) and he’s both loyal to the Shi’ar and to his family. He’s also a member of a group called the Crystal Claws.

9 Lilandra Neramani

The 10 Most Powerful Shiar Ranked

Lilandra Neramani is a woman of many names. She’s also known as Majestrix Lilandra, or even Princess-Majestrix Lilandra Neramani. The length and formality of those names are in fact a strong indicator of her status within the Shi’ar.

Lilandra is of the royal line in the Shi’ar empire, and younger sister to Deathbird and D’Ken. She became the Grand Admiral of the Imperial Guard, a position she proudly held until civil war broke out all because she opposed her elder brother. This resulted in Lilandra becoming Majestrix – and Professor Xavier becoming her partner… well, consort really. Yes, you did read that right.

8 Deathbird

The 10 Most Powerful Shiar Ranked

Deathbird, aka Cal’syee Neramani, was the oldest of the royal siblings. That meant that she was supposed to rule when her father passed. However, Deathbird was rather impatient and moved up that timeline a bit. As a result, she was refused the throne and exiled.

That didn’t really stop her from continuing her path of war and destruction. Deathbird is interesting for another reason as well. All of the Shi’ar evolved from an avian-like species, though most of them no longer resemble that anymore. Deathbird looks more like her ancestors than most, with strong avian features showing through.

7 D’Ken

The 10 Most Powerful Shiar Ranked

D’Ken was the middle child in the royal family, and the one who became emperor. His instability kept him from holding the throne for very long, however. He started a civil war against his sister, all because she spoke out against him.

D’Ken is possibly best known for his brutality. He also has a talent for making his own enemies. His use of brute force makes that no surprise. That being said, he’s a powerful warrior, and one that will never back down from a fight.

6 Magique

The 10 Most Powerful Shiar Ranked

Magique has an impressive rap sheet when it comes to heroes (and less-than-heroic characters) that she’s fought. She’s gone toe to toe with the X-Men, Quasar, and Warlock, just to name a few. She proudly worked for Majestrix Lilandra, and went hunting on her command (hence how she got into so many fights).

Magique was a tough fighter, though perhaps her abilities were most based in magic than many of the others. That didn’t stop her from being a decent hunter and tracker. Ultimately her downfall came about when an opponent (Adam Warlock) turned one of her tricks against her.

5 Korvus Rook’shir

The 10 Most Powerful Shiar Ranked

Korvus is an oddity among the Shi’ar. And there’s one very specific reason for it. The weapon he wielded is one that the Shi’ar would rather not acknowledge. You see – that weapon had once held the Phoenix Force within it, something the Shi’ar are loathe to admit.

Korvus, understandably, was quite the brutal and powerful warrior. He’s also sort of the reason that the Shi’ar formed an Imperial Guard. To defeat him, not have him join the ranks, that is. That alone should probably tell you enough about his power levels.

4 Gladiator

The 10 Most Powerful Shiar Ranked

Gladiator is perhaps the most famous leader of the Imperial Guard. He’s shown up in countless series, either as an active opponent or at least a dangerous cameo. Gladiator has gone up against some major opponents in his time, including the entirety of the Nova force, the Inhumans, and many other famous (and strong) teams.

Gladiator is also known by many names, including Kallark. He’s got a serious number of abilities, along with being cunning and brilliant when it comes to battles. He’s strong, has enhanced healing abilities, enhanced senses, as well as some more absurd abilities.

3 Ratha’kon

The 10 Most Powerful Shiar Ranked

Ratha’kon is the first of the three Shi’ar gods this list is going to include. We’re declaring him the weakest of the three, simply because of how his reputation has faded over the years. Ratha’kon became almost forgotten by the Shi’ar race, which is never a good sign. He is and was a god though, so that warrants him some extra credit.

While many of the Shi’ar had forgotten him, the Fraternity of Raptors did not. They sought to bring him back. They were also somewhat designed after him. If you know anything about the Raptors, that probably just told you loads about this character. Everything Ratha’kon is and was, is everything that the Phoenix Force isn’t. And vice versa. These two entities are the antithesis for one another. Celestial opposites in every way that matters.

2 K’ythri

The 10 Most Powerful Shiar Ranked

K’ythri is one of two gods currently ruling over the Shi’ar Empire. He and his wife, Sharra, are cruel gods – enjoying playing games with their people to appease their own selfish whims. All done as a way of forcing a show of fealty and devotion.

K’ythri and Sharra have taken credit for the creation of the universe – though that remains to be seen. It’s possible that they created everything to do with the Shi’ar Empire, but beyond that it seems slightly less likely.

1 Sharra

Sharra, wife to K’ythri and goddess to the Shi’ar Empire. Physically, she and her divine husband are strong enough to face someone like Thor (the Mighty Thor – Jane Foster) without any difficulty. They also have the power to summon the Phoenix Force. Supposedly, they also created the universe.

Sharr and K’ythri both have appearances more similar to the avian origin of the Shi’ar. They’re also both portrayed as being a deep hue of purple. This makes them fairly distinct, especially with their contrasting white clothing.
