The '''Kree''', briefly known as the '''Ruul''', are an [[List of fictional extraterrestrials|alien race]] appearing in [[American comic book]]s published by [[Marvel Comics]]. They are native to the planet Hala in the [[Large Magellanic Cloud]], and have a scientifically and technologically advanced militaristic society.

The Kree have appeared throughout the [[Marvel Cinematic Universe]], in the television series ''[[Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.]]'' and the films ''[[Guardians of the Galaxy (film)|Guardians of the Galaxy]]'', ''[[Captain Marvel (film)|Captain Marvel]]'' and ''[[The Marvels]]''.

==Publication history==
The first on-panel appearance of the Kree was in ''[[Fantastic Four (comic book)|Fantastic Four]]'' #65 (August 1967), and they were created by [[Jack Kirby]] and [[Stan Lee]]. In their first appearance, the [[Supreme Intelligence]] sent [[Ronan the Accuser|Ronan]] to Earth to investigate what happened to a Kree Sentry, who was destroyed by the Fantastic Four in the previous issue.<ref name="Kreefacts">{{cite web|url=https://screenrant.com/captain-marvel-kree-trivia/|title=Captain Marvel: 20 Things Fans Never Knew About The Kree|last=Weyer|first=Michael|website=[[Screen Rant]]|date=13 February 2019|access-date=12 July 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190214122627/https://screenrant.com/captain-marvel-kree-trivia/|archive-date=14 February 2019}}</ref>

The Kree made their first major appearances in the first volume of ''[[Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell)|Captain Marvel]]'', who was introduced as a Kree warrior who is sent to Earth to spy on its inhabitants in ''[[Marvel Super-Heroes (comics)|Marvel Super-Heroes]]'' #12. The following issue would also see the debut of the [[Yon-Rogg]] and [[Carol Danvers]] a Human/Kree hybrid, who is the seventh and current [[Captain Marvel (Marvel Comics)|Captain Marvel]]. Including Supreme Intelligence, Ronan the Accuser and [[Doctor Minerva]], all of them would feature in the original run of ''Captain Marvel''.<ref name="MarVell">{{cite web|url=https://www.denofgeek.com/us/movies/marvel/279706/captain-marvel-who-is-mar-vell|title=Captain Marvel: Who is Mar-Vell?|last=Buxton|first=Marc|website=[[Den of Geek]]|date=11 March 2019|access-date=12 July 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190330052232/https://www.denofgeek.com/us/movies/marvel/279706/captain-marvel-who-is-mar-vell|archive-date=30 March 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.syfy.com/syfywire/who-is-doctor-minerva-meet-captain-marvels-new-villain|title=Who is Doctor Minerva?

The Kree were one of the major factions involved in the 1971's ''[[Kree–Skrull War]]'' storyline, the event ran in the first volume of the ''[[Avengers (comic book)|Avengers]]''. The storyline established the war between the Kree and [[Skrulls]], it involves other groups like Avengers, the [[Inhumans]], and the [[Fantastic Four]]. It included several plotlines interwoven around the return of Mar-Vell.<ref name="Kreeskrullwar">{{cite web|url=https://io9.gizmodo.com/your-guide-to-the-kree-skrull-war-the-cosmic-conflict-1832913358|title=Your Guide to the Kree-Skrull War, the Cosmic Conflict That Captain Marvel Could Bring into the Spotlight|last=James|first=Whitbrook|publisher=[[io9]]|date=3 January 2019|access-date=12 July 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190330125401/https://io9.gizmodo.com/your-guide-to-the-kree-skrull-war-the-cosmic-conflict-1832913358|archive-date=30 March 2019}}</ref>

They also featured in the first [[ongoing series]] of the Inhumans, in which it is established that ancient Kree experimented on ancient humans which resulted in a superpowered offshoot of humanity. The Kree ultimately abandoned their test subjects, and the Inhumans went on to create their own kingdom far away from humanity.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.slashfilm.com/who-are-the-inhumans/|title=Who Are the Inhumans?

==Biology==
True Kree resemble [[homo sapiens|humans]] almost exactly, with the exception of blue skin, different [[visual systems]],<ref name="FFKS">{{Cite comic |date=July 1967 |title=[[Fantastic Four (comic book)|Fantastic Four]] |issue=#64 |volume=1 |publisher=Marvel Comics |location=United States |writer=[[Stan Lee]] |penciller=[[Jack Kirby]] |inker=Joe Sinnott |letterer=Artie Simek |editor=Stan Lee}}</ref> and "duplicates" of several internal organs.<ref>{{Cite comic|title=[[Marvel Fact Files]]|issue=#6|date=April 2013|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref> Kree have a higher strength level than that of a human, and require more [[nitrogen]] to breathe comfortably.{{Volume needed|c=y|date=November 2014}} Kree bodies are adapted to environmental characteristics on Hala that are unlike Earth. Hala has higher gravity and a higher concentration of nitrogen in the atmosphere than Earth. Under Earth's lesser gravity, their strength and speed increase. However, they cannot breathe in Earth's atmosphere without using a chemical "breathing formula" or artificial life-support devices.

The original Kree had blue-colored skin, but a second racial group with pink skin resembling that of human Caucasians emerged over the millennia. The blue, "purebred" Kree have become a small, but powerful, minority. Pink Kree are much more durable than their blue racial brethren.<ref name="Kreefacts" />

Adult Kree range (typically) between {{Convert|5|and|8|ft|m}} tall. Some female Kree can physically influence men,{{Clarify|date=November 2023}} and a few can even drain the [[Vitalism|life force]] of others. Most are born with this ability, but are required to have it surgically 'corrected' upon adulthood.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer= [[Peter David]]|penciller= [[ChrisCross]]|inker= Anibal Rodriguez|colorist= Steve Oliff|letterer= Richard Starkings and Saida Temofonte|editor= [[Tom Brevoort]]|title=Captain Marvel|volume=4|issue= #13|publisher= Marvel Comics|date=January 2001|location= United States}}</ref> They must undergo this procedure when they are adults in order to avoid 'frying' their brains.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=Peter David|penciller=ChrisCross|inker=Anibal Rodriguez|colorist=Chris Sotomayor|letterer=Richard Starkings and Comicraft|editor=Tom Brevoort|title=Captain Marvel|volume=4|issue=#23|date=November 2001|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref> It seems that this procedure is analogous to [[female genital mutilation]] and it is also called "psychological mutilation" as witnessed with Una-Rogg.<ref>''Captain Marvel'' vol. 4 #13. Marvel Comics.</ref>

Just like humans, some Kree also suffer from various diseases such as Blackgorge, Betath's Plague, the Wasting,<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=Tom Brevoort and Mike Kanterovich|penciller=Scott Kolins|inker=John Lowe|colorist=John Kalisz|letterer=Jim Novak|editor=Mark Bernardo|title=Untold Legend of Captain Marvel|issue=#1|date=April 1997|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref> and [[cancer]] which they call Blackend.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Jim Starlin]]|artist=Jim Starlin|colorist=Steve Oliff|letterer=Jim Novak|editor=Al Milgrom|title=Marvel Graphic Novel|issue=#1|date=April 1982|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref>

The Kree were an evolutionarily stagnant race. This was due to a single member of the Kree race attempting to gain control of The Crystal of Ultimate Vision.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Chris Claremont]]|penciller=[[Alan Davis]]|inker=Paul Neary|colorist=Glynis Oliver|letterer=Tom Orzechowski|title=Uncanny X-Men Annual|issue=#11|date=1987|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref> This unnamed Kree found the crystal, but attempted to use it to become akin to a god, with powers as of those of the [[Phoenix Force]]. As punishment, the crystal "genetically froze their [[evolution]] in place" allowing the rest of creation to pass them by. In an attempt to further their development, some Kree bred with other species, producing the 'pink-skinned' Kree, who are similar in appearance to [[Caucasian race|Caucasian humans]]. These pinks (also called 'whites') eventually outnumbered the blue-skin Kree, but were far from accepted amongst their brethren; many pink kree were exiled from the homeworld and put into forced labor camps on barren moons by their blue skinned cousins due to prejudice and racism.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Brian Augustyn]]|penciller=Chuck Wojtkiewicz|inker=Ray Snyder|colorist=Brad Vancata and Graphic Color Work|letterer=Phil Felix|editor=Terry Kavanagh|title=Imperial Guard|issue=#2|date=February 1997|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref> The Kree value what they consider to be their genetic purity, to such an extent that reproduction outside of the species is a strict taboo. In the Kree empire, it is a crime for a male non-Kree to impregnate any Kree.

The Kree race has produced individual super-humanoid beings, either through natural mutation, genetic engineering, or cyborg technology, including [[Mar-Vell]], [[Ronan the Accuser]], [[Ultimus (comics)|Ultimus]], [[Shatterax]], [[Korath the Pursuer|Korath]], and others.

The [[Supreme Intelligence]] attempted to jumpstart the evolutionary process of the Kree. Through a series of events discussed below during ''Operation: Galactic Storm'' and the ''Destiny War'', it arranged for a large number of its people to be irradiated with a Nega-Bomb (killing 90% of the Kree), and then artificially sped up their evolution by means of an artifact called the [[Forever Crystal]].<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Kurt Busiek]] and [[Roger Stern]]|penciller=[[Carlos Pacheco]]|inker=Jesus Merino|colorist=Steve Oliff|letterer=Richard Starkings and Albert Deschesne|editor=Tom Brevoort|title=Avengers Forever|issue=#3|date=February 1999|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref>

This new brand of evolved Kree, called '''Ruul''', have a grayish skin tone and many shoulder-length tentacles atop their heads. Individuals possess the ability to consciously 'will' adaptation of physical form to different environments, affording them controlled metamorphosis, spontaneously developing the ability to breathe underwater, fly, change form or whatever their circumstances require. The females had also lost their ability, since the males now had that ability.

The Inhumans later brought to light a long-held secret about the creation of the Kree. As it turns out, the Kree are in fact of Universal Inhuman stock, the very first of the first of their kind. Unlike a great many races throughout the universe, the Kree were alternated by two races of cosmological abstracts in the likes of the [[Celestials (comics)|Celestials]] and the Progenitors, which evolved them from primitives to empire builders.<ref name="Royals #5">{{Cite comic|writer=[[Al Ewing]]|penciller=Thony Silas|colorist=Jim Charalampidis and Jose Villarrubia|letterer=Clayton Cowles|editor=Wil Moss, Sarah Brunstad and Tom Brevoort|title=Royals|volume=1|issue=#5|date=19 July 2017|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref> While the Celestials went on to spawn the Kree born [[Eternals (comics)|Eternals]], it was the Progenitors, a race of universal gardeners and cosmic scientists that made their home at the far end of the cosmos within the heart of a lone star, who through the introduction of the Prima Materia which the Progenitors mine and process on their World Farm called The Primagen, were able to force evolve the cro-magnon Kree race into the cosmic conquerors that they are today.<ref name="Royals #9">{{Cite comic|writer=Al Ewing|penciller=[[Javier Rodríguez (artist)|Javier Rodriguez]]|inker=Alvaro Lopez|colorist=Jordie Bellaire|letterer=Clayton Cowles|editor=Wilson Moss|title=Royals|volume=1|issue=#9|date=4 October 2017|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref>

==Culture==
The Kree are an imperialistic and militaristic society with the only widespread religion being worship of the Supreme Intelligence. A small minority, like the Priests of Pama, practice a pacifist [[Cotati (comics)|Cotati]] religion, but this is forbidden (early ''Captain Marvel'' stories mentioned an 'idol' called Tam-Borr and a 'fabricated' god named Zo, whom Mar-Vell served between issues 11 and 15). Some are members of the [[Universal Church of Truth]].

The Kree Empire [[Manifest destiny|extends throughout nearly a thousand worlds]] in the northwestern lobe (Earth reference) of the Greater Magellanic Cloud with outposts in other galaxies.

Kree names are usually short, being one or two syllables. Given names are separated from surnames by a hyphen. Examples include Mar-Vell, Yon-Rogg, Una-Rogg, and Zey-Rogg.

Some Kree names reference the comic book industry, such as Mar-Vell ([[Marvel Comics]]), Att-Las ([[Atlas Comics (1950s)|Atlas Comics]]), Dea-Sea ([[DC Comics]]), and Star-Lyn ([[Jim Starlin]]).

Generally, the offspring of officers of the Kree Imperial Militia are immediately conscripted.

===Population===
The Kree population was in excess of 30&nbsp;billion prior to the Nega-Bomb detonation. The Kree lost an alleged 98% of their population after the Bomb detonated. Although the pink-skinned Kree are in the majority, it is the blue-skinned Kree, such as Ronan, who dominate their society.

High population and technological development allow for highly urbanized planets. Most of the surface of Hala, the origin planet of the civilization, is covered by futuristic city-states,<ref>''Captain America'' ''#398''. Marvel Comics.</ref> and the second capital planet, Kree-lar, is described as "the most heavily populated world of all".<ref>''Captain Marvel vol. 1 #15''. Marvel Comics.</ref>

===Government===
Under the Supreme Intelligence, the Kree Empire was a military dictatorship. Under Clumsy Foulup, the Kree were temporarily a monarchy, and while under Ael-Dan and [[Dar-Benn]] they were a military dictatorship.

Leaders of the Kree have included the Supreme Intelligence, Clumsy Foulup, Nenora, Zarek, Ael-Dan and Dar-Ben, Phae-Dor, Tus-Katt, Morag, [[Ronan the Accuser]], and—most recently—[[Black Bolt]] of the [[Inhumans]].

The Kree began their empire over a million years ago, within a hundred years of the acquisition of interstellar technology from the Skrulls (at that time, a benevolent people). The Skrulls at the time were attempting to start a galactic empire of their own, this one based on free trade, and they landed on Hala to help the barbaric natives advance to the point where they could join.

Although Hala ''is'' the ''official'' planet of the Kree's origin, for a time, the planet Kree-Lar in the Turunal system served as the capital of the Kree Empire as well as the seat of the government. The Kree Empire is ruled as a militaristic dictatorship. The permanent ruler was the organic computer-construct called the Supremor (or Supreme Intelligence), an immense computer system to which the preserved brains of the greatest intellects of the Kree race have been linked. Aiding the Supreme Intelligence were a number of imperial administrators on Kree-Lar, who are also governors of each of the member worlds, and a vast standing space militia. They also employ powerful automatons called Sentries whose job it is to keep member worlds under the empire's watchful eye.

The Kree empire is later ruled by Black Bolt and the Inhuman Royal Family who gained power after Ronan the Accuser, ruler of the Kree after the Supreme Intelligence's demise, submitted to him.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Dan Abnett]] and [[Andy Lanning]]|penciller=[[Paul Pelletier]] and Bong Dazo|inker=Rick Magyar and Joe Pimentel|colorist=Wil Quintana and Mike Kelleher|letterer=Joe Caramagna|editor=Bill Rosemann|title=Secret Invasion: War of Kings|volume=|issue=#1|date=7 January 2009|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref>

=== Languages ===
The Kree language exist in different versions, including at least ancient Imperial Kree<ref>''Guardians of the Galaxy: Telltale Games'' #1. Marvel Comics.</ref> and Kreevian.<ref>''Avengers Vol 3 #7.'' Marvel Comics.</ref>

=== Money ===
The Kree used as currency the kredits,<ref>''Capitan Marvel #11''. Marvel Comics.</ref> or credits.<ref>''Iron Man #279''. Marvel Comics.</ref>

=== Technology ===
The Kree Empire extends across a thousand worlds in the northwestern lobe (Earth reference) of the Greater Magellanic Cloud. They are the only race in the galaxy to possess the Omni-Wave Projector technology, a device which can enable communication across hyperspace as well as be used in an offensive capacity as a weapon. They also possess [[Cloaking device|cloaking technology]], which they call the 'aura of negativity'.

Kree technology includes advanced warp-drive starships, robotics (such as the [[Sentry (Kree)|Sentries]] and the Destructoids),<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=Steve Englehart|artist=Marshal Rogers|editor=Michael Higgins|title=Silver Surfer Volume 3|issue=#6|date=December 1987|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref> bionic and cybernetic (Cy-Mek) technology, advanced genetic engineering, psionic technology (Psyche-Magnitron), advanced energy weaponry (Uni-Beam), cosmic power generation, nuclear/antimatter weapons and even dimensional linking and siphoning devices. Across the myriad of realities further advancements of Prime Marvel Universe Kree Tech. has been made in strides.

Some Kree inventions have been outlawed, such as the organic-destroying robots Null-Trons, corpse revitalizing Mim Units, and the genetic-enhance Psyche-Magnitron.

In ultimate comics, they make use of nanomolecular shapeshifting battle armor with advanced genetic tailoring capabilities which can harness thermonuclear to cosmological force as both weaponry and power source.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Warren Ellis]]|inker=Mark Morales|colorist=Mollty Hollowell|letterer=Virtual Calligr|title=Ultimate Secret|volume=1|issue=#1–4|date=30 March 2005|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref> The multiversal traveler [[Noh-Varr|Marvel Boy]] makes use of similar metamorphic technology powered by whats called Kirby Engineering, mechanical works powered through belief and mental interfacing along with shifting liquid metal or self-replicating nanotech.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=Mike Raicht|artist=[[Eduardo Barreto]] and [[J.G.

===Antiquity===
Eons ago, beings of massive power known as Progenitors arrived on Hala, and employed on its population a substance known as Prima Materia, which served to evolve this population from their primitive form.<ref name="Royals #5" /> The planet would eventually be visited by another race of [[Celestial (comics)|beings]] who would also experiment on its population.<ref name="autogenerated1">{{Cite comic|writer=Jeff Christiansen, Sean McQuaid,

A million years ago, a race called the [[Skrull]]s came upon Hala.<ref name="autogenerated1"/> At that time, the Skrulls were a largely peaceful space-faring race, and they set about educating the natives to the point where they could join their trading empire. However, Hala was home to two equally intelligent races, the Kree and the [[Cotati (comics)|Cotati]].<ref name=A133>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Steve Englehart]]|penciller=[[Sal Buscema]]|inker=Joe Staton|colorist=Phil Rachelson|letterer=Tom Orzechowski|title=The Avengers|volume=|issue=#133|date=March 1975|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref>

The Skrulls proposed a test which involved taking members of each race to distant planetoids, with supplies for one year, and then returning at the end to judge what each group had created.<ref name=A133 /> The Skrulls took the Cotati to a barren moon and then brought the Kree to Earth's moon where they created the [[Blue Area of the Moon]]. While the Cotati created a beautiful garden, the Kree constructed the magnificent Blue City.

The Skrulls returned to judge the accomplishments of the groups and return them all to Hala. Once back on their homeworld, the Kree leader Morag learned that the Skrulls had been impressed by the city, but the other Skrulls were more impressed by the Cotati's success. Enraged, the Kree wiped out the Cotati and then, when the Skrull protested, killed them as well and seized the Skrulls' starship. They then set about deciphering the technology of the starship.<ref name=A133 />

===Kree–Skrull War===
{{Main|Kree–Skrull War}}

When acquiring the technology from the Skrulls, the Kree began to spread throughout the Greater Magellanic Cloud. The Kree launched an attack upon the Skrull empire and the peaceful Skrulls were again forced to become war-like.

At the same time, the Cotati on Hala were almost driven to extinction. However, a small handful of pacifist Kree, hid and kept safe a group of Cotati. Eventually, these Kree began worshipping the Cotati that they had kept sheltered. To further hide and keep them safe, the priests relocated the surviving Cotati throughout the universe.

Years later, the Kree, aware that the Skrulls had once created the [[Cosmic Cube]], designed a [[Cyborg|cybernetic/organic]] supercomputer called the [[Supreme Intelligence]] to help them in creating a Cube. When the computer became functional, it determined that a Cosmic Cube would be too dangerous to construct and refused the Science Council's request.

At the beginning of the War, the Kree established a station on [[Uranus]]. Through their work, they discovered that sentient life on [[Earth]] had genetic potential invested in it by the [[Celestials]]. Intrigued, the Kree began to experiment on humans.

Their goal was twofold – to investigate possible ways of circumventing their own evolutionary stagnation, and to create powerful soldiers to use against the Skrulls. However, the Kree abandoned their experiments because the Supreme Intelligence foresaw the experiments leading to the destruction of the Kree. In order to disprove that prophecy, the Intelligence ordered Accuser Huran to murder the scientists responsible for the experiments and summon the Accuser Corps to cleanse the experiments. In its haste, however, the Supreme Intelligence failed to download the full data packet, and five worlds that were seeded escaped the slaughter: [[Badoon]], Centaurians, [[Dire Wraiths]], [[Kymellians]], and early humans.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Jonathan Hickman]]|penciller=[[Greg Tocchini]]|colorist=Paul Mounts|letterer=Clayton Cowles|editor=Tom Brevoort|title=FF|volume=|issue=#6|date=13 July 2011|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref>

The humans test subjects, eventually dubbed the [[Inhumans]], went on to form a society of their own. Later a surveillance robot, [[Sentry (Kree)|Sentry 459]], that was stationed on a [[Pacific Ocean|South Pacific]] island was eventually awakened by the [[Fantastic Four]] and alerted the Kree.<ref name="FFKS" /> This caused [[Ronan the Accuser]] to punish those who "murdered" the guard, but the Fantastic Four defeated him.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=Stan Lee|penciller=Jack Kirby|inker=Joe Sinnott|letterer=Artie Simek|editor=Stan Lee|title=Fantastic Four|volume=|issue=#65|date=August 1967|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref>

As the war dragged on, the Supreme Intelligence accrued more political power and responsibility until finally it was elected as absolute ruler of the Kree and came to be worshipped.

====The War comes to Earth====
The Earth's importance as a strategic beachhead became apparent when the [[Avengers (comics)|Avengers]] became involved in the Kree-Skrull hostilities.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Roy Thomas]]|penciller=[[Sal Buscema]]|inker=Sam Grainger and Tom Palmer|letterer=Sam Rosen|editor=Stan Lee|story=Kree-Skrull War|title=Avengers|volume=1|issue=#89–97|date=June 1971–March 1972|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref> In the meantime, the Kree were reestablishing cultural ties with the Inhumans.

At this point, the Kree hero, [[Captain Marvel (Mar-Vell)|Captain Marvel]], revealed to the Avengers that the Kree were planning to 'erase' humanity. This scheme was foiled by Mar-Vell and the Avengers.

As the war escalated and Earth's position became increasingly precarious, the original Avengers were recalled to active service after a Skrull scouting party managed to abduct Mar-Vell, [[Quicksilver (Marvel Comics)|Quicksilver]], and [[Scarlet Witch]] and also attempted to destroy the Inhumans' Great Refuge, but failed when the Avengers intervened. During the conflict, the [[Super-Skrull]] took his prisoners back to the Skrull home-world, leaving the remaining Avengers to pick up the pieces and reform their tattered forces.

The conflict worsened when the Avengers began to understand the scale of the war. They discovered a Skrull fleet wanting to destroy Earth and a Kree fleet wanting to stop them. All sides were determined to either [[Alien invasion|invade]] or decimate the Earth in order to prevent it falling into the 'wrong' hands. Led by [[Thor (Marvel Comics)|Thor]], [[Iron Man]], and The [[Vision (Marvel Comics)|Vision]], the Avengers launched an attack on the Skrull flagship, somehow managing to turn back the fleet after a desperate battle.

The war came to a close when the Supreme Intelligence managed to bring [[Rick Jones (character)|Rick Jones]] into his presence and temporarily altered Rick's DNA to release his 'full evolutionary potential.' Armed with godlike powers, Rick froze both Kree and Skrull forces, allowing the Intelligence to re-establish control over his people and bring the war to a halt.

===Further Kree–Skrull Wars===
At several points in the years after the end of the first Kree–Skrull war, hostilities were said to have broken out again between the two empires.

The most significant of these instances came when the Skrulls lost their ability to [[shapeshift]],<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Walter Simonson]]|penciller=[[M. D.

The machinations of [[Thanos]] led to the sudden elimination of half the universe's life-forms.

===Kree-Shi'ar War===
{{Main|Operation: Galactic Storm}}

Not long after the conflicts with the Skrull ended, the Kree again found themselves embroiled in a war, this time with the [[Shi'ar]] Empire. This war was much shorter, and was engineered by the Skrulls and the Supreme Intelligence.

The Avengers of Earth became involved in the conflict when the Shi'ar opened a wormhole in Earth's solar system to gain rapid access to Kree territory, unconcerned about the damage that would be caused to Earth's Sun as a result. Their involvement inadvertently set off a chain of events which led to a powerful artifact known as Nega-Bomb being detonated in Kree space,<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=Mark Gruenwald, [[Bob Harras]] and [[Fabian Nicieza]]|story=[[Operation: Galactic Storm]]|title=Various Titles|date=March–May 1992|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref><ref>{{Cite comic|writer=Bob Harras|penciller=[[Steven Epting]]|inker=Tom Palmer|colorist=Gina Going|letterer=Bill Oakley and Michael Higgins|editor=[[Ralph Macchio (editor)|Ralph Macchio]]|story=Operation: Galactic Storm|title=The Avengers|volume=|issue=#347|date=May 1992|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref> causing an explosive and radioactive reaction that devastated the Kree empire, with ninety percent of the Kree dying, and led to its surrender to the Sh'iar. It was later revealed that the Supreme Intelligence was ultimately responsible for the Bomb's detonation as part of an attempt to kick-start the Kree race's genetic development. Appalled by this callous disregard for the life of its people, a group of Avengers executed the living supercomputer. The Kree territory was then annexed by the Sh'iar, with Majestrix [[Lilandra Neramani|Lilandra]] naming her sister [[Deathbird]] as the territory's administrator. Deathbird has since abandoned this post.

===Ruul and retcon===
Due to the large amount of radiation of the Nega-Bomb, the remaining Kree slowly began evolving which was sped up through the machinations of the Supreme Intelligence and the Forever Crystal until they transformed and renamed themselves into a new species: the Ruul. As the Ruul, they resembled grey humanoids with tendrils on the back and side of the head and an overall reptilian appearance. The most notable ability of the Ruul was their ability to evolve their forms spontaneously to suit whatever situation was required. Under the ruse of being a spacefaring species from beyond charted space, the race orchestrated the events of ''[[Maximum Security (comics)|Maximum Security]]'' that temporarily turned Earth into a prison. While their plans for Earth was prevented when their Kree origin and behind-the-scenes manipulations were revealed, they were able to launch their fleet in secret and reclaiming Hala and numerous other Kree worlds from their Shi’ar masters and commenced a campaign of aggressive expansion.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Kurt Busiek]]|penciller=[[Jerry Ordway]]|inker=Will Blyberg and Paul Ryan|colorist=Jason Wright|letterer=Richard Starkings and Comicraft|editor=Tom Brevoort|title=Maximum Security: Dangerous Planet|issue=[[One-shot (comics)|one-shot]]|date=October 2000|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref><ref>{{Cite comic|writer=Jerry Ordway and Kurt Busiek|penciller=Jerry Ordway|inker=Al Vey, Chris Ivy, Paul Ryan and Will Blyberg|colorist=Jason Wright|letterer=Richard Starkings, Comicraft, Albert Deschesne and JL|editor=Tom Brevoort and Marc Zumerak|title=Maximum Security|issue=#1–3|date=December 2000 – January 2001|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref> The machinations of the Supreme Intelligence were undone when a cosmically empowered Genis-Vell, son of Mar-Vell, restored the Kree race to its original form when he destroyed and recreated the universe.<ref>{{Cite comic|writer=[[Peter David]]|penciller=[[Paco Medina]]|inker=Uncredited|colorist=Chris Sotomayor|letterer=Richard Starkings and Albert Deschesne|editor=Tom Brevoort|title=Captain Marvel|volume=5|issue=#6|date=April 2003|publisher=Marvel Comics|location=United States}}</ref>
