Bron Char was with the second lineup of the Lunatic Legion led by Galen Kor when they attacked the Cape Canaveral base, and he ambushed Captain America and smashed the triangular shield that he was carrying at the time. He battered Captain America initially, but when Captain America saw how many people the Kree had been experimenting on, he became furious and beat Bron Char badly.[2]

In other media
Rune Temte appears as Bron-Char in the 2019 film Captain Marvel.[3][4] This version is a member of Starforce alongside Yon-Rogg, Carol Danvers (who was known as "Vers" at the time), Att-Lass, Minn-Erva, and Korath the Pursuer. In addition to being an expert at hand-to-hand combat, he jokes about finding Korath attractive. Bron-Char is first seen when he and Starforce head to look for a compromised Kree scout named Soh-Larr. This leads to an ambush by a faction of the Skrulls led by Talos which ends with Vers getting captured. After Vers escapes to Earth and contacts Yon-Rogg, Bron-Char accompanies Starforce and some Kree soldiers in their trip to Earth where it was discovered that Mar-Vell hid some Skrull refugees on her ship. After Carol Danvers fights the Supreme Intelligence's control and burns out the implant that limits her abilities, she fights Starforce and subdues Bron-Char.
