Super Skrull

Super Skrull

When the empire of shapeshifting aliens known as the Skrulls sought revenge on the Fantastic Four they developed a process to imbue a subject with powers that combined and exceeded the team’s own. They chose the highly decorated warrior Kl’rt as a candidate and he proved the only Skrull strong enough to contain all of the powers they bestowed upon him. Super strength and durability, shapeshifting, projection and control of heat and flame, invisibility, force fields, and a hypnotic gaze. After suffering repeated defeats at the hands of Earth’s heroes, Kl’rt continued to serve his people faithfully as a hero despite the ever-increasing tarnish on his reputation. When all other Skrulls were robbed of their shapeshifting ability he proved a key piece in restoring it to them, and when the Skrull homeworld was destroyed he was a dedicated force in restoring the empire to its former glory. He eventually betrayed his Empire in order to save it, then returned to rule it before setting out yet again to avenge it.
