Meet the Skrulls by Various, Robbie Thompson

4.0

Skrulls have always been problematic; like the "Indians" in cowboys and Indians games, or the stock Russian bad guy in cinema, the belief that a whole race of anybody is all bad is ultimately untenable. This has been whittled away at by Marvel over the years, first with the Prince in the Mask during the Avengers/FF crossover, and then with Super-Skrull's arc during Annihilation, and most recently with the individualized portrayals in the Captain Marvel movie. This predates that, and is an attempt to make the Skrulls relatable, and it works spectacularly well. The art is perfect for the apparent simplicity of the story, and there's heart and a lot of thought has been put into how Skrulls' identities work, when you are what they are, and when your society works like it does. Enjoyable.
