What Happened To The Skrulls" Home Planet In The MCU?
Warning! This post contains SPOILERS for Marvel's Secret Invasion episode 2Marvel's Secret Invasion reveals more details into the destruction of Skrullos, the original homeworld of the shapeshifting Skrull race. Having returned to Earth in the face of a new Skrull threat, the 30-year peace established by Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) is no more thanks to a massive plot set in motion by the Skrull known as Gravik (Kingsley Ben-Adir). Having been appointed the rank of Skrull General with Fury's chief ally Talos (Ben Mendelsohn) being exiled, Gravik is looking to push the United States and Russia to nuclear war while also empowering his own people to claim Earth for themselves.
Nick Fury and Talos are on the run in Secret Invasion episode 2 following a bombing in Moscow and the death of Maria Hill. This creates the perfect opportunity for Talos to come clean about what happened during the Blip when Fury was gone. This included a galaxy-wide call summoning even more of his fellow Skrulls to Earth as a refuge, something Fury would have never approved of. Having already had his suspicions, this reveal is preceded by Fury asking Talos about the destruction of Skrullos and what happened to their original homeworld.
