Super-Skrull
hails from the Skrull homeworld of Tarnax IV, which has since been destroyed by Galactus. The Skrull Emperor Dorrek wanted revenge against the Fantastic Four,
who thwarted the Empire's attempt to invade Earth. Dorrek handpicked the warrior Kl'rt, who was artificially augmented and given the combined abilities of the
Fantastic Four.
Kl'rt's power levels, however, exceeded the originals... he became stronger than
The Thing; superior flight and greater pyrokinetic ability to the Human Torch;
better control of invisibility and telekinesis than Susan Richards; and an
ability to stretch beyond that of Mr. Fantastic. The newly-named
"Super-Skrull" also retained his innate Skrullian shapeshifting
abilities and strong hypnotic skills. He was then dispatched to Earth to defeat
the Fantastic Four and pave the way for a renewed invasion by the Skrull Empire.
