    First up, an origin of the Kree/Skrull war




    Many centuries ago, two races were living on the planet Hala - the Kree and the Cotati. They couldn’t have been more different, the Kree were Hunters and meat-eaters, the Cotati were evolved plants with telepathic-empathic abilities. One day the Skrulls landed on the planet, back then they were a very friendly race that attempted to share their knowledge with other people, in exchange for their loyalty to the Skrull Empire.




    Finding two equally evolved species, the Skrulls decided to hold a contest, the winning race would become the official representors of Hala. Of each group seventeen people were selected and both teams were transported to an uninhabited planetoid, where they should build, develop and grow. After one year the progress of both parties would be judged. The Kree team was taken to Earth’s moon, where they immediately began to mine and refine, and they built a gargantuan blue city. The Skrulls were very impressed, but the progress of the Cotati was even more astounding. The plant race had accomplished to turn a barren planetoid into a fully grown forest and garden by telepathically calling out to ancient seeds and water.

    The Kree could not stand to loose the competition, and at night they killed almost all Cotati and the Skrull crew of the visiting spaceship. Examining their craft the Kree too learned the secrets of interstellar travel. This was the start of the century-old enmity between the Kree and the Skrulls.

    I wish Marvel would have continued the Inhuman rule over The Kree. It had more potential than what Marvel is currently doing with them.

    I agree. Also I'm surprised we haven't seen Drax reunite with Cammi. Wonder if its gonna happen.

    I agree. Loved seeing thearriage between Ronan and Crystal. Shame it all went away so Hickman could tell his bland story.

    Agreed I really liked the relationship the two had with each other. I was also okay with Thanos dead he got his wish, Drax fulfilled his goal now trying to figure out his new purpose with the Guardians.

    The cosmic side of Marvel sure is seeing a bit of a resurgence at the moment. We currently have GotG, Rocket Raccoon, Star-Lord, Silver Surfer and Nova with another Guardians book upon us. I'm loving Rocket Raccoon so far but I have a whole lot of hope riding on GotG 3000. The current stuff (specifically GotG, Nova and SS) is just not on the same level as the Giffen/DnA books and I hope 3000 can rectify that problem.

    I'm also really happy to see Hickman taking the Avengers in a more cosmic direction.

    Oh yeah, would love to see Cammi return to space soon!

    It didn't go away for any Hickman story... it went away because Marvel was putting back all the old school powers nearly exactly as they were before in the cosmic landscape and the whole thing with a potential Inhumans movie.

    But I do agree, breaking the two up so Crystal and her kid can disappear in the wave of new Inhumans and crap was weak. Heck, her and daughter Luna being around Ronan during Infinity probably would have made his eventual disregard of the Supreme Intelligence's advise on fighting better.
