#JackedKirby - Introducing... THE SKRULLS!!! 💥💥💥 The Skrulls have long been thorns in the sides of the heroes of Marvel Comics, dating as far back as #Issue2 of the Fantastic Four (January of 1962) and coming in all shapes and sizes throughout the years. Primarily played as bad guy shape shifting aliens, these green goblin look-alikes have caused tons of trouble throughout the years for Earth’s Mightiest Heroes... and now they are a focal in the new Captain Marvel movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe!!! 💥💥💥 The Skrulls have had many a retcon to their overall story, but mostly they are evildoers who utilize their ability to shape shift and “sim” another person to manipulate a situation to their advantage. Jack drew them a bit more impish then they would eventually come to be known, with his early versions of the characters from FF Issue 2 resembling what would become Ditko’s Green Goblin a lot... maybe Stunning Steve was inspired a bit by his Bullpen brethren Jack? 💥💥💥 We see the “sim” process being executed by a Skrull in Pic 3 of this post, utilizing power lines and vibration to simulate the change. We also see Reed dispatching this group of Skrulls by forcing them to change into cows, and then hypnotizing them to maintain a peaceful life here on earth (Pic 6). These same Skrull cows would play a role in the Kree/Skrull war storyline from former Marvel superfan turned writer Roy Thomas and Neal Adams... which is an excellent callback some to something of a throwaway storyline resolution from 20 years prior! 💥💥💥 The Skrulls have played integral parts in many storylines throughout the years, most notably in the Secret Invasion storyline... but it all started with Jack and Stan a long time ago!!! 💥💥💥 #KingKirby #Kirby #jackkirby #FF #FantasticFour #Skrulls #CaptainMarvel #MCU #Marvel #60sComics #ComicsOfThe60s #kreeskrullwar #SkrulLCows #LeeAndKirby #KirbyAndLee #igComics #ComicsOfIG #Comic #Comics #ComicBook #ComicBooks #FirstAppearance #MarvelComics https://www.instagram.com/p/BuwLDl-BV-8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15o2om64ytkxa
