King Jerald was ruler of the Kingdom of Grand Rapids in the North America of Earth-7511. King Jerald felt overwhelmed by his responsibilities of the crown and used the Golden Globe of Power to transport himself to Earth-616. King Jerald disguised himself as the Black Lama and opened a school for meditation. The Black Lama searched among his students for a person to replace him as ruler of his kingdom. Eventually, the Black Lama was driven mad due to a cosmic imbalance.
