When Not Just Any Skrull Will Do
"A Skrull Walks Among Us!" reintroduces the intergalactic threat of the shape-shifting Skrulls. After their advance party voluntarily turned themselves into cows (don't ask) last year, the Skrull Emperor thinks one 'Super Skrull' can do the job better (why these guys don't just go ahead and launch a full scale invasion is beyond me).
Imbuing one Skrull with the power of all the members of the FF, with a little extra in each case, the Super Skrull is sent to earth to defeat the Fantastic Four once and for all.
Hardly a superior issue of the comic, it's still passable. Super Skrull may be silly, both in name and in powers (why stop at just giving him the FF's powers; why not throw in the Hulk's and Spider-Man's too?) but ultimately the issue succeeds by putting the focus back on the action, which plays to both the strengths of artist Kirby, and the conception of this superhero team.
