Who do you guys think is the X-Skrull?

[Optic Rage!]

So guys, who do you think is the X-skrull?

[Karl H]

Nightcrawler.

Would explain why he's done bupkiss since he's been brought back.

Seriously though, I have no idea. I think I know who a few others are but the X-skrull could be nearly anyone.

Cyclops - has completely changed the X-men's motivation of late. A contender?

Emma - people would love it if she were (but I wouldn't although it would sadly, complete Joe Q's long term goal of completely retconning Grant Morrison's run), the classic "power behind the throne" argument.

Storm - probably been enough said on that one.

Warren - it's never really been explained why he returned to the team after taking the hulk's side but, I don't think that's enough of an argument.

However, given that X-Factor has the Secret Invasion tie-in. I'm going to say Quicksilver.

[Mr. Earl Brooks]

I vote for Iceman. When he got his powers back it was kind of shaky for me. No proof otherwise though.

If it's Nightcrawler, I'll cry.

[Karl H]

I have decided to vote Gambit.

I hate him as a character and hope once they kill him as a Skrull they conveniently fail to find the original.

[Optic Rage!]

Im going to go with Kurt.

He hasnt had a story in ages, plus i dont think he has had an internal monolouge either.

He needs a story, Angel is a contender to.

[creaky]

Im going to go with Kurt.

He hasnt had a story in ages, plus i dont think he has had an internal monolouge either.

He did in his Icons mini series and his solo series, where Emma also rummaged through his head twice (although I'm not sure how the recent Skrulls work).
He did teleport a Skrull out into space in RAFOTSE. Are we certain it was the real Kurt we got back? I think most of the Skrull arguments are based on stuff he did (or didn't do) ever since he returned from Excalibur, though.
He and Gambit are probably the most likely Skrull candidates, but I'm not sure they would make it fit nicely into continuity with any of them.

If it's Kurt, I will bawl. A Skrull in a suit with a cane is just not the same as a Kurt in a suit with a cane.:(

[Weapon Ick]

Cyclops or Emma Frost would be the most useful for the Skrulls to impersonate. The higher the rank the more benificial it is for their plan. However, I do not think the Skrulls would dedicate that much of their resources to infiltrating the X-men. Earth's mutants have been signifigantly weakened and are not the threat they used to be.

Professor X was member of the Illuminati so revenge on him is probably a big motivator for the Skrulls. Taking that in to consideration, it would be best for the Skrulls to impersonate someone who can get the closest to him. Maybe Beast or Nightcrawler.

I think the one mutant who would be the scariest to the Skrulls is the Phoenix. After all, she once ate a planet inhabited by ugly green aliens. Both Jean and Rachel are out of the picture right now so I don't think the Skrulls have to worry about that.

All things considered my answer is going to have to be none of the choices given. The X-men always stay in their own little pocket of the marvel universe. They had virtually no involvement in Civil War and I see this event being the same. I seriously doubt any of the O5 or any A-listers at all will turn out to be a skrull. It will probably end up being Leech or someone like that.

[Novaya Havoc]

Dazzler. It is the only way.

[Flameworthy]

I want it so badly to be Sunfire. The real Sunfire is out there somewhere, with legs and all.

[_Jayme_]

Dazzler. It is the only way.

Stop it. Stop it now.

Dazzler has pink hair, why don't you get that Novaya!? :p

I'm hoping it's Cyclops. It would send some shockwaves around to the X-Universe and let the real Cyclops come back to see that alot has changed..and then see how he really deals with it.

The Cyclops now just doesn't know how to deal with things..

Maybe even have a story after her returns of how he isn't sure how to trust Emma, not knowing what decisions she's made lately with the Skrull Scott.

[DeniseXfrost]

None of the above.

[Optic Rage!]

Guys, im PRETTY sure one of the above is a skrull.......

[The Black Guardian]

Um... but what if you think they're all Skrulls?

[_Jayme_]

Um... but what if you think they're all Skrulls?

Then you're automatically wrong.

I choose....Big Bertha.

Is she still a mutant? PMSL.

[We R. Venom]

With Nightcrawler's powers I think it would be him, but we will see. I actually just voted for Emma though, because i want her gone.

[rZi]

None of the above, if it is ill just say what the hell

[DeniseXfrost]

Guys, im PRETTY sure one of the above is a skrull.......
Why?

asdfsd

[DarthCyclopsRLZ]

If I remember correctly, the first X-book tied in to SE is X-FACTOR.

That alone kinda speaks volumes on how big of a player the x-skrull is gonna be, eh.

Hell, it might give X-Factor something to do for a couple of issues.

[The Black Guardian]

Then you're automatically wrong.
Fine then!

I think it's time to say buh-bye to the blue cat.

[Leirus]

I have read elsewhere (in occasionalsuperheroine or so) That the big thing with secret inavasion is that it is old, I mean, there are characters who have been being a Skrull a lot of time. So, even if it is not true, lets think the "worst case scenario" for the mutants

Jean Grey. She never came back. She was a Skrull since her "return" in X-Factor

One of the mutants who went through the Perilous Siege (you know, that Portal that Roma gave them, back in the fall of the mutants)

Dust, or any other New X-men. Has been always a Skrull

Xavier. Dead since the Z´Noxx invasion. (or later, ok) & Sage... a spy on the early days?

I do not know, things like that, that could be really earth-shattering, and not the usual "he has been a Skrull for, er three months"

[Leirus]

Fine then!

I think it's time to say buh-bye to the blue cat.


Err... about your Motto, You know that at first Dazzler was going to be black, right? She was supposed to be a Grace Jones look-a-like




http://artfiles.art.com/images/-/Grace-Jones-Photograph-C12147531.jpeg

[worstblogever]

Keep in mind, the Skrulls might not have successfully placed an X-Skrull until "Divided We Stand" happens. What better time to replace an X-Man than when they're alone, and off-panel?

Just sayin'.

[The Black Guardian]

Err... about your Motto, You know that at first Dazzler was going to be black, right? She was supposed to be a Grace Jones look-a-like
Yeah, that's one of the reasons it is my motto. They soooo dropped the ball on that one, imo.

[darknessatnoon]

Yeah, that's one of the reasons it is my motto. They soooo dropped the ball on that one, imo.

No, they didn't. She turned out just fine.

Anyway, the SkrullS are Nightcrawler and Darwin, though we are being teased with Emma and Beast. That's my theory and I'm sticking to it!

[frog]

I'm going with Nightcrawler because he's had the least character development of late to mess up. I'd really hate to see any of the others on the list turn out to have been Skrulls, unless, as Worstblogever said, they were only replaced very recently.

I do agree Angel is also a possibility.

[Frank]

Rogue and Mystique have been Skrulls all along.

[Swashbuckler]

Dazzler. It is the only way.

Lets hope not, the "Diva Princess" has a slip up in style and common sense. That's just how it goes. Pretending like she never did any of that would be a waste. Now, if they were creative and claimed that the disco Dazzler is the skrull and the real one is a mega-butch mojo-world heroine i'd be all for that.

[ExodusCloak]

A character who'll have the least impact on the X-Books. I say Onyx.

[Christoffer]

I'll go with Gambit, just because I hate the character :P

[Leirus]

A character who'll have the least impact on the X-Books. I say Onyx.

Would not that be a little lame? I mean... I rather see the X-Men outside of the crossover...

[ExodusCloak]

Would not that be a little lame? I mean... I rather see the X-Men outside of the crossover...

But look what they did to Blackbolt. :(

[Jase Q]

Well...i wish it was Storm (damn you Jim).
But i know its not, and I do know who it is...but still I voted Storm....cuz Dammit thats the ONLY way!

[Hi-Fi]

It's not Scott and Emma, for obvious reasons. Or Wolverine. Big developments and protected by the editors and writers.

Not gonna be Rogue or Beast or Colossus. Big developments for them as well, recently.

Carey has long-term plans for Gambit, so I doubt it's him. Iceman. Hmmm. He's not in any team right now. Doubt it.

It's between Storm and Nightcrawler for me. Yes, Storm had major changes in her life these past years, but if Marvel wanted to retcon all that, this would be their chance. And Kurt is wallpaper since forever. That said, I'm loving Kurt in the current Uncanny arc, so I'd like him not to be a skrull!

[Mitteloss]

I hope none of them are Skrulls.

It is a stupid idea. And a lazy way to retcon stuff. And the X-books shouldn't be involved in this mess.

[Brian M.]

I hope none of them are Skrulls.

It is a stupid idea. And a lazy way to retcon stuff. And the X-books shouldn't be involved in this mess.

Except it's an exciting story...it's not a way to retcon stuff. These people are still in the business of TELLING STORIES.

[Mitteloss]

It's my opinion. I don't want writers to use Secret Invasion as a way to retcon a recent development or make a character a Skrull just for the sake of it. I'm sure Bendis had things planned out since he took over... but not for the X-Men. I'm going to leave it there.

And again, I'd like to stress it's my opinion.

[rZi]

I hope there aren't any X-skrulls...atleat not ones i read about now. Maybe some lost in continuity, that'd be fine by me.

[drwho]

if anyone is a skrull it has to be the cyclops in young x-men. Sending out kids to commit murder is just wrong.

[frog]

I hope none of them are Skrulls.

It is a stupid idea. And a lazy way to retcon stuff. And the X-books shouldn't be involved in this mess.

I don't agree that the idea is stupid. I believe that done well, Secret Invasion could be very entertaining, especially if Bendis ties it into the Civil War arc believably.

However, I do agree that characters that have had substantial character development of late could be ruined by being revealed as Skrulls. I'm hoping that Bendis did consult with the X writers when he picked out his Skrulls and avoided those that had good stories going lately.

For example, people have suggested Beast is a likely candidate for having been Skrulled beginning with Morrison's run due to his change in form. I hate this idea because it would undo so much that has happened lately with the character. Cyclops fans probably would be just as displeased to find his recent authoritative turn is the result of a Skrull substitution.

Of course, I'm sure others would be just as happy to have the actions of certain characters to be that of Skrulls. It really depends on what events and storylines are undone by the revelations.


It really is a sort of lose/lose situation. If only minor characters or those that have been absent of late are revealed as Skrulls it will be considered a cop-out. If major players are revealed as Skrulls, recent developments may be ruined and many fans upset.

[Ann Nichols]

Yes, there are Cyclops fans who really want him to turn out to be a skrull.

[drwho]

To me it doesnt make sense for anyone to really be a skrull. The X-Men just went through a big shake up so Marvel isn't gonna bother them much so soon. Also Emma and Scott together are the best thing that happened to the books in awhile.

[DeadMuskrat]

Looking at that list, the only one that it'd make sense to have been a skrull is Storm. She's put herself in a position of great power; the queen of a highly advanced civilization, an one of the leading suppliers of vibranium in the world (which is what the Skrulls were going for Savage Land.

No one else on that list makes sense to have as a skrull other thhen to spy on the X-men who pose very little threat to the Skrulls.

[Optic Rage!]

With Nightcrawler's powers I think it would be him, but we will see. I actually just voted for Emma though, because i want her gone.

What a groundbreaking, logical and unbiased person you are...:rolleyes:

Why?

asdfsd

Just a gut feeling.

I hope none of them are Skrulls.

It is a stupid idea. And a lazy way to retcon stuff. And the X-books shouldn't be involved in this mess.

A mess?

Please tell me how you got to read the books before they were even released??

Your so lucky!!!

Yes, there are Cyclops fans who really want him to turn out to be a skrull.

Some, but not many.

I think if we look at it logicaly we can narrow it down to a small number.

Cyclops - Not in a million years. Considering the amount of push and development he has been getting from the top brass and writers the past couple of months they aint just gonna throw that down the drain. Plus, he is the driving force behind the X-Books and the new ''Vision'' He is SO not a Skrull.

Emma - I really really doubt it, She's pretty much in the same boat as Scott, the writers are not going to change something they are obviously so in love with.

Scott & Emma are the most safe IMO.

Wolverine - I cant see it, not to mention the fact he was replaced by a Skrull before, However they MIGHT have a Wolverine skrull in the New Avengers to explain how he is in so many places at once, it would be lame, but its a possibility, one that would make no sense tough.

Rogue - Carey has plans for her, i dont think Bendis will step on his toes when it comes to Legacy, as its kind of Carey's baby.

Gambit - The same as Rogue

Beast - I could see this, he is a possibility, but by judging the previews for AXM i dont think so.

Nightcrawler - A safe bet imo, hasnt had or story or done anything important in ages, him being a skrull would affect the storys the least, and they would still manage to have a A-lister as a skrull for the doubters.

Colossus - After everything that happend in AXM? I REALLY doubt it.

Iceman - Maybe, he hasnt done much in a while, but he is in limbo and not in any of the core X-Books...not sure

Storm - If i had to pick someone who i wanted to be a skrull, it would be her, But i know Joe Q is a fan of her & BP so i doubt it, sadly.

[Teh m0nk3y]

I'm going to get my geek rage on if Scott turns out to be a skrull.
I have a seriously heavy man-crush on Cyclops ever since Messiah Complex and Whedon's Astonishing.

[Daithi]

Or Wolverine. Big developments and protected by the editors and writers.

All 20 odd appearances of him a month? :)

[AnthonyJ]

Well, Cyclops is acting seriously out of character (sending off squads of X-assassins?), in ways that are likely to result in internal conflict in the superhuman community (there are plenty of superheroes who would Not Approve) and disbanding the X-men conveniently takes a set of potential enemies out of play, so he's certainly done things that are darned useful to the Skrulls. I certainly think he should be the skrull, though you have a valid point about editorial immunity.

[Phil Hunn]

Yes, there are Cyclops fans who really want him to turn out to be a skrull.

Indeed. The wretched imposter currently telling us that "murder is what all the cool kids are doing!" deserves to be unmasked as a Skrull.

I still voted for Storm, though, because I'm fairly confident that Marvel are so in love with Fuhrer-Cyclops and Emma that they'll leave the two of them alone, no matter how warped and out-of-shape they are...

[LordAllMighty]

Perhaps we should have a separate poll 'Who do you want to be the X-Skrull'

I applaud your moral stand! This is certainly the first I've heard of your position.

You should vote with your wallet and refuse to buy any Cyclops-related comics until Marvel SHAPES UP!

Until they do, Phil Hunn, no more X-Men. Plus, you should refuse to even discuss the X-Men or post on the X-Books Forum. Don't shower those sickos with the attention they crave.

It's the only way Marvel will take notice!

[La Fea]

Anyone but Cyclops or Storm would seem a little too inconsequential to the last couple years of story so I'm hoping its one of them for Interesting Revelations sake.

I could see Colossus as a Skrull, what with ressurection via new alien race and Agent Brand's involvement in SI.

[ibrakeforchinwe]

I think it would be cool if Mystique was a Skrull. A skrull hiding as a shapeshifter is an interesting idea.

[Phil Hunn]

Until they do, Phil Hunn, no more X-Men. Plus, you should refuse to even discuss the X-Men or post on the X-Books Forum.

Excuse me while I collapse in fits of laughter over your sarcasm.

And I don't buy the core books any more, by the way.

[Mitsaso]

I think the obvious choice is Storm, so that she can later return in the X-Men with no worries about having a husband in Africa, but another obvious choice is...


MYSTIQUE!
Skrulls can easily replicate her powers!:p
AND it would be fun if Wolverine finally gets to kill her in his solo, only to find out she's a skrull and the real Mystique was snatched at the end of Messiah Complex!
I would be like nyah nyah nyah nyah nyahhhhh:p

[Brett P]

Kurt and/or Ororo.

Well its not as if you dont BITCH about Scott or Emma in Every.Single.Post so you cant blame him for getting tired of it.

[Brian M.]

None of the above.

Wrong. One of them is.

[Red Lotus]

After MC any skrulls who are X-men woud have to have as little of an impact on the X-men world as the can.

Cyclops: With the changes to the X-men he is now even more important. Him being a Skrull would be like Stark being a Skrull.

Emma Frost: I think she is to tied in with Scott.

Wolverine: Dont see to big of an impact.

Rogue: Not that big of an impact but will be left out of SI

Gambit: See above.

Beast: With him being on AXM i want to say no.

I think maybe one of these four.

Nightcrawler: Bru seem to like him to much so I'm not sure.

Colossus: Could be. maybe the really Colossus is still dead.

Iceman: No post MC plans for Iceman so he might be a skrull.

Storm: I voted for her but with her being on AXM i dont think she will be one.

[Phil Hunn]

Well its not as if you dont BITCH about Scott or Emma in Every.Single.Post so you cant blame him for getting tired of it.

One, it's not every single post. I like to think I at least keep it vaguely relevant. Two, it's hardly like this is the only thing that I've ever applied this to. I can think of at least three other examples off the top of my head, although I'm fairly certain that posters elsewhere on the net, and people I know offline can think of others: Psylocke being killed, the break-up of Warren and Betsy, and the over-use of Storm. Side-effect of being on the autistic spectrum.

And three, trying to out-sarcasm an Englishman is fairly futile. It's our birthright, after all ;)

[Optic Rage!]

Ok then, every other post?

[Phil Hunn]

Ok then, every other post?

Yeah, that's more like it ;)

Tell you what, I'll make an extra effort to rein myself in. Truce?

With an english man??? NEVER!!!

I'm kidding I'm kidding.

Cool.

[HeckBoy]

I picked Storm (no real reason, I just felt she was), and I was surprised by how many others did too.

[drwho]

I picked Storm (no real reason, I just felt she was), and I was surprised by how many others did too.

Perhaps it may have had to do with the poorly developed marriage that was supposedly done to help sales of a book that is still dieing. I think Storm is too much an X-Man to be playing house with Black Panther.

[Kalen O.]

Dammit, Optic Rage, you made people stop bitching about Cyke and Emma and NOW look what happened.

IM SORRY!!!

I DIDNT KNOW I DIDNT KNOW I SWEAR IT!!!

They got married out of the blue, should have had them date for a bit first or something. Also feels a bit racist that they only got married because they're both black.

Your are the first person to say that EVER EVER.

[KidNewWave]

Of all the characters, I hope its BEAST!

Then when the X-Men find the real deal,
we will get our beloved Ape Beast back,
and say goodbye kitty kitty!

[HeckBoy]

I wonder how they'll spin it in Black Panther if Storm actually is a Skrull. If they make it so that T'Challa always knew about it and was just "taking one for the team" to try and uncover some stuff, then that'd be ridiculous. But seeing as how he seemingly can do no wrong, I wouldn't doubt it.

That's what they're calling it these days, huh? ;)

[Animalia]

It's definatly not Emma or Scott, they are waaay to important and woven into too many storylines. Something is telling me Storm or Iceman.
The skrull Storm probably just married Black Panther to get power over Wakanda, and Iceman has been acting shady lately (we've been seeing less and less of him)

Well, Jean's still dead, so I'm inclined to agree with you there.

Although if Storm is freed from the clutches of BP, I know I at least will rejoice.

Well, to be fair, Storm's role in the MU at large has been expanded, and I like this (I think she should be an Avenger, like her Marvel Adventures counterpart). However, her getting married to the Black Panther was definitely not the way to go about it.

So it's swings and roundabouts, really...

... although the fact that Jean is still wormfood definitely still rankles at me.

[The Black Guardian]

My votes on the blood ;)
I think I need a new keyboard and monitor now.

I wouldn't even mind her being married to T'Challa, if the build up would have been better. But since the whole thing has been done so crappily, I say let it burn. Blood schmud, as long as it's green.

*cough*

[DeniseXfrost]

Wrong. One of them is.
Well i'd go with Wolverine.

[Phil Hunn]

Well i'd go with Wolverine.

I doubt it. They already did this once, and I'm still mourning the noble, self-sacrificing legend that was the first Skrullverine. I don't know what I'd do if it happened a second time :(

Actually, all that "legendary" talk in the cartoon thread made me realize current Wolvie is a shameless poser, lol.

And keep in mind, I dig Wolvie. Still, the 'recluse that's on every goddamn team' angle could go. If a Skrullverine's the way to pull it off, then I'm all for it.

That, and we could have some priceless scenes a la:

Wolvie: "WTF is wrong with you people? How could NO ONE have noticed I was at five places at the same f****n time???!!! Logistics, anyone? F**k."

I like Wolverine, too, and I still don't like the idea that a team isn't a team unless he's on it. That kinda relegates all the other X-Characters to second-stringers, y'know?

That makes me a sad panda.

Wolvie: "...Logistics, anyone? F**k."

Cyke: "Actually, we just figured Doctor Strange taught you a teleportation spell or something."

Wolvie: "What the f**k?"

Cyke: "Hey, it worked for Kitty 3.0."

Wolvie: "The Pixie brat? What the f**k does that have to do with me? In any whatso-f****n-ever relevant goddamn capacity???!!!"

Cyke: "Besides the Dr. Strange connection...?"

Wolvie: "Humor me, Summers."

Cyke: "I take it you haven't seen the cover for that Free Comic Book Day one-shot?"

At least Nightcrawler, Collosus, and i think Cyclops' powers were all shown to be possessed by the Skrulls at the end of Illuminati #5. This suggests all 3 of these have at some point been prisoners of the skrulls, or at least had a Skrull agent close to them who collected their DNA samples. Unless of course the Skrulls can recreate a heroes powers without any of the heroes DNA, in which case the heroes are really screwed.

I don't think the original Super-Skrull was created with Fantastic Four DNA samples, was he? I think the Skrulls can engineer a Super-Skrull with a specific hero's powers relatively easily...

[Jack Flash]

to take a page out of Monty Cristo's handbook: Vincente!

[Swashbuckler]

Honestly, if Vincente is a Skrull, I probably won't notice.

[Jack Flash]

LOL. You are a skrull.

[DeniseXfrost]

I doubt it. They already did this once, and I'm still mourning the noble, self-sacrificing legend that was the first Skrullverine. I don't know what I'd do if it happened a second time :(
Seriously, he's the only person that is safe and easy to replace and doesn't leave much impact.

Yeah, I agree with that..with all the titles, you have to think that at least one of them was a skrull..My guess is the one in New Avengers. He's been playing low key.

[Phil Hunn]

Well, there is that. Marvel don't seem to be too concerned about repeating themselves at the moment, either...

[Swashbuckler]

I really want Nightcrawler to be a Skrull.

[Jack Flash]

I really want Nightcrawler to be a Skrull.

we agree! He's just been so boring since 4ever. I hope they find out that he's been studying in a church since Casey's run.

[Swashbuckler]

No, i hope he's been chasing after mystique and trying to kill his mom, she's a bitch.

[DeadXMan]

diffently Emma, she needs her fangs back.

but have Skull emma be that skrull chick from Fantastic four

[Nite-Wing]

Well, Jean's still dead, so I'm inclined to agree with you there.

Although if Storm is freed from the clutches of BP, I know I at least will rejoice.

Apparently all will rejoice that outcome.

[DeadXMan]

Apparently all will rejoice that outcome.

and there was much rejoicing. But I think it would be cooler if it was a Skrull from Khan's army, not the 616

[Optic Rage!]

Hmmm? oh, I forgot to change my stuff from Hell week.

:rolleyes: silly me

OMG your humour is so radical and orginal are you SURE your not from the future????

But I think it would be cooler if it was a Skrull from Khan's army, not the 616

FAIL!

[Rich711]

Whoever it was that infiltrated Marvel Comics and wrote this stupid spacemen storyline.

Like Disco, Skrulls are best left in the 70's

(oh and save me the "The Skrulls are not from the 70's they first appeared in 1962 Fantastic Four #2" The Skrulls should have been left behind, where their goofy purple jumpsuits belong, in the 70's)

KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!

... sorry, had to do it :o

No, the original Captain Marvel should have been left behind (they really should have brought back Genis-Vell instead of his dad). The Skrulls are awesome. A little over-used at this point, but still awesome...

[AnthonyJ]

Oh, based on the Ms Marvel previews, it looks like there's an X-skrull option we haven't been considering: Apparently there were two copies of Carol Danvers wandering about. This opens up possibilities for, say, the Cyclops who set up X-force to be a Skrull, without the Cyclops who is a regular in Uncanny being a Skrull.

That makes sense, but apparently Cyclops will keep the X-Force attitude up in Young X-Men.

[Optic Rage!]

But that might not be Cyclops in Young X-Men, I'm not saying its a skrull, but it could be someone else.

[We R. Venom]

Does anyone know the date, Secret Invasion is coming out?

[scouse mouse]

I actually think that the X Skrull is going to be Jean Grey. Hving read the possible spoilers that are floating around the net, she will return to mess with the heads of her old X pals.

[DeniseXfrost]

But if Jean is the skrull then there would be no suprise at all.................unless the Jean that died was a skrull all along.

[Optic Rage!]

Trust me, the Jean that died was Jean.

I'm sure there will be a Jean skrull, and im sure the reason for that will be explained also.

[Phil Hunn]

The fact that all of those "army of Skrull infiltrators" pictures include a Jean Grey Skrull (despite the fact that she's "dead") says something, I'm sure...

Says that they had a skrull they wanted to swap out w/ her, but they never got the chance due to her ever changing nature.
