    The Skrull are an alien race in Marvel Comics' fictional universe. An advanced intergalactic race, the Skrull have had several encounters with the Fantastic Four, beginning in Fantastic Four #2 (January, 1962). They inhabit the Andromeda Galaxy and their homeworld was Skrullos, until it was devoured by Galactus.

    Skrulls resemble green-skinned humanoids with large pointed ears and corrugated chins. Male Skrulls are typically hairless, although not uniformly so.

    The Dire Wraiths central to the plot of Rom were an evil, parasitic, magic-using, Deviant offshoot of the Skrull race, analogous to vampires.

    Skrulls are capable of producing hybrid offspring with humans and Kree, and possibly other species.

    In the Ultimate Marvel line of comics, the Skrulls are also known as the Chitauri and the Annakui. They are unable to exist in our universe unless they take someone else's form. They tried to take over the world but were stopped by The Ultimates. Recently in the Ultimate Fantastic Four comic Skrulls similar to the Earth-616 version have appeared which may imply that other races simply confused them with the Chitauri (both being reptilian shapeshifters) or that the Chitauri are the Dire Wraiths of the Ultimate comics.
