Jabbar (real name Nawaf Al-Bilali) is a fictional character in The 99 comics.

[edit] Fictional character biography

Nawaf is a normal teenager until an explosion shatters a hidden "Noor stone", embedding shards of the stone in his skin. The shards trigger Nawaf's transformation from a gawky teenager into a two-metre tall giant weighing 200 kilograms.

The Saudi military government unsuccessfully tries to contain Nawaf. Finding that he is unstoppable, they turn to a world expert on Noor stones, Doctor Ramzi Razem. Razem teaches Nawaf that he needs only add self-control and compassion to be a formidable force for good. Nawaf — now known as Jabbar — becomes the first of The 99.
