SKRULLS READING ORDER: Infiltration (1995-2008)

Well, this one ended up being a lot longer than I'd expected, but I wanted to capture the key stuff from the first appearance of the Skrull Kill Krew right the way up to the SECRET INVASION: THE INFILTRATION tie-ins that lead up to SECRET INVASION. And I've certainly done that, but it's a beast!

Aside from the KREE-SKRULL WAR and the events of THE TRIAL OF REED RICHARDS (also covered in the previous Skrulls entries), most of the spotlighted stories below give you all the background reading you need to make the most sense of the entire SECRET INVASION event. If you just want the basics, just head on over to SECRET INVASION: THE INFILTRATION and go from there.

The Skrull Empire is now in disarray, but the X-Men discover a plot to infiltrate the Earth's super-human community and an alliance with Apocalypse. When all of that dies down, the Skrulls begin their full-scale invasion plans. And we had no idea they were infiltrating the Avengers and other super-teams, until it was too late!

I'll create a fourth entry at some point, but the last three reading order entries for these shape-shifting aliens will cover most of what you'd need to read before their biggest event, SECRET INVASION, will which no doubt influence the films at some point.

As always, I'd like to thank the guys over at the Marvel Chronology Project which I use as a basis and then work out my own version of the Marvel Universe continuity. Those guys have done all the heavy lifting for me!

MCG Note:

• Issues in blue are worth reading, are major chapters in Skrull history or may play a key part in the great Marvel tapestry.
• Issues in grey are part of the Skrulls' chronology, stories of note that aren't essential or are no longer considered 'required reading'.
