The Kree-Skrull War & Its Effect on Marvel's Event Comics

The Kree-Skrull War was a 9-issue story in The Avengers by writer Roy Thomas that had lasting effects in the Marvel comics and now their films. This video breaks down the story and points out the techniques that writer Roy Thomas used throughout his career. It also explains how this epic story factored into later comics and films.

Imagine not needing to get 59 tie in issues to get a full storyline

[@VicEntity]

Trully savage times back then

[@dantecrottogini529]

Doing a big event is hard because you're damned if you do and damned if you don't. If you don't have tie ins the story dosn't feel important to the Marvel/DC universe, if you do you can't have the tie ins be too important because not everyone mihgt read them but there needs to be somthing there for people who DO read them. Also there's the matter of how big events derail books from their intened storylines, i think the best solution to that is what Marvel has donde the last couple of times: leave the main ongoing alone and have a miniseires that ties in to the big event, but that way has also has some problems

[@BoyNamedSue4]

Dante Crottogini yeah. I think Annihilation handles it the best. You get the full story if you just get the main book. But the tie ins don’t feel like your missing key information to enjoy the overall story.

I like that you point out how Roy Thomas was instrumental in turning the Marvel Universe into the shared superhero universe as we know it today. Lee and Kirby in Fantastic Four were very much operating in an older serial mode always moving things forward, introducing new characters and settings, ending things on cliffhangers. Ditko was a bit more programatic in his approach, but kept Spider-Man and especially Doctor Strange pretty much in their own worlds. Of course, there were some crossovers now and then, but Thomas was the one who started to look backwards and tie things around, to mine events from a title (Fantastic Four) in order to push what happens in another (Avengers), making for a much more tightly knit universe.

[@BigK13372]

56postoffice Honestly a lot of the best elements of the Avengers came from Roy Thomas. Captain America as team leader. Hawkeye and Scarlet Witch permanent transition into heroes. Hank and Jan being recurring characters in those books instead of solo heroes. Debut of characters like Jarvis and Vision. Creation of villains like Ultron, Grandmaster, Grim Reaper and Squadron Supreme. A lot of key Avenger mythos came from the guy.

Another Great video( But how DARE you not give Vision his props. Quicksilver did indeed use his "cannonball " moveon Goliath but it didn't take him out. Vision did, using his Disruption move. All the while fearing he could seriously injure the giant.) THIS storyline, was but the first of MANY, that showed why the AVENGERS are "the big Leagues", consistently playing for high stakes(Thanos/Cosmic Cube/ Gems, Avengers/Defenders War, Kang/Celestial Madonna, Squadron Supreme/Serpent Crown, Olympians, Loki etc.)....These books aided me in getting through a tough, poverty stricken childhood. AVENGERS Has been my favorites ever since. Always. Great stuff man.

Roy originated the sliding Marvel Timeline, too. This added to the quasi- realism which made Marvel fun in the 80s. The concept of roughly 7 to 10 years of chronological history couldn't remain elastic forever, but it was very cool.

Great video this week! I'm surprised you didn't point out that, during Ant-Man's trip into the Vision (himself a modern version of a Golden-Age character), he discovered components inside Vish which were from decades prior. That would set the stage for Vision being identified as a repurposed original Human Torch a few years later. Roy Thomas tropes at their best.

I was fortunate to grow up with Marvel's Silver Age and bought the Kree Skrull run of the Avengers off the spinner rack. I remember Avengers #93 with Neal Adams-Tom Palmer art and Ant-Man's Fantastic Voyage through the Vision as one of the coolest comics of the era.

[@yatz57]

At the time of this run I was a teen-ager, living in some godforsaken hole in the Middle East, occasionaly sneaking off to the big city (Haifa - Rose of The Carmel and Port to Israel!), to a run-down used-books shop, which would occasionaly have some mangled old comics (usually carried by ships which used it as ballast...). Imagine my surprise and delight, when I came in one day, to find a sparkling new, double-sized Avengers book! It was Avengers #93, drawn by Neal Adams at his peak, inked by Tom Palmar who was just killing it, featuring a dumb-yet-mind-blowing tale of Hank Pym rummaging through Vision's innards, while Cap and Thor and IM are busy striking ever more impossible Adamsian poses... To this day I get chills running up and down my spine, just thinking about it!... Was never a big fan of Thomas, and the drop-off between the issues drawn by Sal B and those done by Adams and big brother John was way too steep, but that was truly one of the biggest events of post-Kirby Marvel. Thanks again, Chris, for another excellent run down memory lane!

I just finished re-reading the Kree-Skull War. Two things stuck out to me. First, the comic doesn’t really show any of the “war”. Second, it definitely seemed to me that Roy Thomas was making it up as he went along. I think this was in the days before writers and editors would pre-plan their multi-issue story arcs.

[@princeblackelf4265]

by Thomas' own admission, he absolutely was making it up as he went along

[@razgaros]

I had the pleasure of asking him the question directly as he was at comic con Paris last year. When I brought him the book to sign, he asked me if I had read it already or if I had just bought it. Told him I had read it, and he asked me if I tought the plot was confusing, I said no, but there where however confusing elements to the story such as scarlett witch powers. That's one of the things that bugged me when I read the comic : she is not only practicly useless, but also very inconsistent. In one panel of the book, she says something along the lines of "Guys, I know my powers have been useless until now, but I have a feeling this time i'm going to be usefull". I tought this line was self aware, so I asked him about it. His answer was to laught and tell me "Well yeah, no one really knew what her powers where at the time, we kinda wrote whatever helped the story better". So, yeah the story wasn't the only thing he made up as he went :p

The skrull who was Senator Craddock was the fourth skrull from FF #2 -- the one who impersonated Sue. And so Roy Thomas answered possibly the oldest question in Marveldom at the time: What happened to the Fourth Skrull? Thomas was one of the first peddlers of Continuity Porn...

[@shoresean1237]

1 - Roy Thomas could tie anything together. He was to remote but plausible connections what Peter David is to snarky yet respectful looks back at past stories. 2 - He was going to, at one point in his run on DC's All-Star Squadron, finally define once and for all why the Pre-Crisis OIE Supermen were especially vulnerable to magic. But with COIE, stories like that and Superman under a white sun never came to be, since they were too laced up with the old continuity to drill down that far. 3 - His letter columns inside the books were chock-full of his musings on the stories, both freely given and in his response to readers. I'm told that frequently, digital reprints do not include these, which is a damn shame. 4 - Roy felt betrayed by Wolfman, DC and COIE overall, since he was originally promised a set-aside for Earth-2 in this. He even later learned that Wolfman, once his protege, had been plotting COIE since he was a kid, so this wasn't just a change of heart. 5 - Roy apparently fell badly afoul of Jack Kirby at some point. In his post-Marvel DC book Mister Miracle, two recurring hucksters and con men bordering on villains were the slick promoter Funky Flashman and his obsequious assistant, Houseroy. Since Flashman was based on Stan, the math is easy on Houseroy. 6 - Later stories would show that those Skrull cows had after-effects--yeccch. Just one nit: McCarthy and HUAC (House Committee On Un-American Activities) were separate but related entities. McCarthy was splashy if vague accusations made for showboating and grandstanding. Among his aides was a man named Roy Cohn, who is one of the sleaziest figures in American politics, bar none - with one very highly placed mentee in highest office as we speak. HUAC did seek publicity as it ground people up, but it did so more quietly, and more deliberately and if possible, with more malice. But they also were phonies - two of their most frequent witnesses were Walt Disney, as a friendly witness naming names (Walt had his ego bruised by a labor dispute in the early 40's) and Earl Browder. Earl Browder was the President of the CPUS - The American Communist Party - so I guess you could say he was and had always been one. Not much to be uncovered there. In neither case, Senate or House, did they uncover a single Communist not already known to authorities. IMO, they were in place to punish dissent from their POV, not hunt actual threats. Roy later revisited McCarthyism in 'America Vs. The JSA' miniseries which told (in full, Gerry Conway had written the first story) of how a McCarthy-type figure forced the JSA to shut down in the early 50's.

You mentioned that the Kree are at an evolutionary dead end. Allow me to toss out a fan fiction thing that will never be, but appeals to me nonetheless. The original story about Superman was that Krypton was a planet where mankind had evolved to its pinnacle: everyone was stronger, faster, tougher than human beings. There was none of this "yellow sun" business; Superman's powers were all about evolution. So Kryptonians are mankind at its physical peak. Meanwhile, the Kree are humans (more or less) albeit much stronger and tougher, but at an evolutionary dead end. But wait, isn't that the same thing as the Kryptonians? Is there a connection between the Kryptonians and the Kree? They even have a similar name. Again, this is a ludicrous fan fictional theory and it will never come to pass, but I like it.

[@r0kus]

Wasn't Rick Jones made an honorary Avenger? As I remember it, he started out as Hulk's (Banner's) sidekick. This led him to meet the Avengers. As Hulk started to lose his humanity, he didn't want Rick (or anyone, really) around. Thus Rick transitioned to being essentially the Avengers' resident Normy, very similar to Snapper Carr's relationship with the Justice League at the time. This is all to say a focus on Rick Jones *is* a focus on the Avengers'. "Once an Avenger, always an Avenger." You might want to do an episode comparing the histories of Rick and Snapper. Both have gone thru multiple stages of their careers.
