Fictional character biography

Kyle Brock was a policeman working in New York City, who had been hospitalized when he was shot by criminals. The death god Seth brought Kyle Brock, Winston Manchester, and Pamela Shaw to his own "dimension of death," healed them, and gave them superhuman powers. Seth employed these three humans, now known as Earth Force, as pawns for vengeance. Seth tricked Earth Force into thinking that Hogun was a menace, and they fought Thor and Hogun, until Thor exposed Seth's evil nature to them. They reconciled with Thor and Hogun, and were transported back to Seth's dimension. They fought Seth's warriors and were captured by Seth's forces. They were freed by Hogun, and continued to battled Seth's forces. ["Thor" #395-399] Earth Force then confronted Seth, and were mortally injured by him. They were restored to life and returned to Earth by the gods of Heliopolis. ["Thor" #400]

As part of Earth Force, he fought the Bloody Claws. ["Thor" #426] Later, he was prevented by Wind Warrior from endangering a baby by attacking Silver Sable. ["Thor Annual" #16]

Earth Lord and the Earth Force have been identified as a superhero registered with The Initiative, and stationed in Washington state.
