Default Is Xavier a skrull?

Is Charles Xavier a skrull? Or worse? has he been for a very long time. Lets look at some of the ideas going on here. Charles has been dead and alive more times then Jean, twice in the old days before UXM 94 I think, and once since then, and a clone body madem then he went missing and they had a search for Xavier plot for a few months.

With the single exception of the clone body Sikorsky made for him on the Starjammer, the circumstantial evidence points toward a big chinned green Chuck Xavier.

Here's my theory, first, at some point Charles had to be human. He did. I grant that, But ever since the New X-Men showed up, Charles has shown an unhealthy interest in space for a guy who's trying to foster unity and coexistence here on earth. So he suddenly has this Shi'ar girlfriend from lightyears away, wouldn't that be the ultimate caveate for a skrull? to get a spy in on the Shi'ar royal family?

But at some point the switch had to be made back or he hasn't been a skrull yet, , because when the brood nearly takes him over, He's suddenly cloned as a human. Ok, So now we have this Human/mutant lover of the Majestrix Shi'ar who as part of the illuminati fall into their hands. At that point, sometime AFTER the clone body and the return to earth, the stage is set for Charles to be switched when the Skrulls captured the Illuminati. And soon after this skrull is able to foster unrest in the Shi'ar empire to the point a civil war occurs, destroy the X-men and force them into fractured disagreeing teams, influence the Illuminati into falling, and setting the stage for the X-men to be conveniently absent from the Civil war where they can do the most damage.

I would even be willing to argue this sudden 3rd summers brother may be a part of the entire skrull exchange. At any rate, if any of the illuminati are skrull, Charles is a prime candidate.

No, Xavier is not a Skrull. 'Nuff said. We already know who all the Skrulls are.

Sadly, Vulcan is not a Skrull either.

What TBG said. Xavier being a skrull wouldn't make a lick of sense in any way, shape, or form.

I did originally think that Xavier could be a Skrull. He was the leader of Kadre K. And who knows what happened up there in space. Also how does Xavier go from leading Kadre K to not recognising a Skrull mind ala. Black Bolt.

Just remembered, Xavier tried to stop Galactus from devouring the Skrull homeworld by taking the minds of all the Skrulls and directing their thoughts into Galactus's mind. He has to recognise a Skrull mind when he comes across it. To say otherwise is to either say that the Skrulls are capable of greater telepathy then Earth's mightiest mind or crappy writing strikes again.

Mike Carey has said no X-Men are Skrulls and Cyclops provides a pretty simple, logical explanation in Secret Invasion : X-Men #2 as to why this is.

if the Skrulls had someone in the X-Men camp, they'd have known they were in San Francisco & wouldn't have been caught off guard by their presence.

Not necessarily. The skrull spy might just be as (in)competent at reporting back as Sage was when she was undercover in the Hellfire club.

Hasn't it been reiterated numerous times that the Skrull imposter's have undergone a new type of shape shifting in terms of becoming their alternate identities. They have become their replacements so thoroughly that they actually think just like them and can only be brought out of the thought pattern by a special trigger word unique to each individual?

This is true.

Some Skrulls, like Captain Marvel, underwent a process that so thoroughly imprinted the subject onto them that they could not distinguish their true identity from the subject's. The trigger you speak of was ineffectual for Marvel, and he was considered broken by the Skrull empire.

With all that said, I truly hope future X-book writers do not play with that possibility.
