Who Is Kofi? Origin, Powers and Key Facts

Kofi is a Marvel comic book character, the alter ego of Lord Kofi Whitemane, with over 50 comic issue appearances. An alien ally of Power Pack. Kofi is the son of Yrik and Onomi Whitemane and therefore, heir to the throne of the Kymellians. The Kymellians are alogoanthropes (Were-Horses, often mistaken for Centaurs whom are alogoanthropes but have human torsos and horse extremities) or human/horse hybrids. He was born with powers that are rare in the Kymellian race and is therefore a non-human mutant.

Who is Kofi?

Origin Kofi was part of the Kymellian race of aliens and son of Lord Yrik Whitemane and Onomi Whitemane . Yrik and Onomi were the king and queen or the Kymellians respectively, until the Inhumans conquered their empire. Now Onomi is married to Black Bolt and serves as queen and ambassador for her people. Growing up the son of royals, Kofi had very little interaction with his parents. Lord Yrik's duties especially, seemed to take precedence over his son. When Kofi came across a Z'nrx plan to kidnap an Earth super team of children known as Power Pack , Kofi decided to try to stop it. In assisting Power Pack, Kofi finally earned the attention and admiration that he longed for from his father. He continued to help out with Power Pack as an unofficial member, and was present when the Z'nrx first tried to steal the Packs powers (they wanted his teleportation skills).
