After the Kree-Skrull War a group of Earth’s superheroes - Iron Man; Mister Fantastic; Namor; Black Bolt; Professor Charles Xavier and Doctor Strange - band together as a group called the Illuminati to secretly confront the Skrulls. The characters attack the Skrull Empire, and warn that any further invasion attempts of Earth would mean further reprisals. The characters, however, are captured and intensely studied before escaping.

An eventual successor to the Skrull throne, Princess Veranke, claims that a prophecy foretold the annihilation of the homeworld. The current Emperor, Dorrek, exiles the character to a prison world for inciting religious extremism. After the destruction of the Skrull Throneworld by the cosmic entity Galactus,Veranke becomes Empress by lineage, and the character guides an invasion of Earth, armed with the knowledge of superhumans gained from the Illuminati. The Skrulls capture several superhumans and infiltrate Earth’s defences, with Vernake herself posing as heroine Spider-Woman. Veranke, however, is inconvenienced when there is a breakout of supervillains at the prison the Raft, which forces the character to join the team the New Avengers.

The Skrulls also skirmish with the Earth’s heroes several times prior to the invasion. The leader of the ninja group the Hand - Elektra - is revealed to be a Skrull after dying in battle with the New Avengers posing as agents of spy organization S.H.I.E.L.D. the Skrulls attempt to mine the metal vibranium in the Savage Land and battle the New Avengers before being killed and the Illuminati battle an impostor posing as Black Bolt and two new Super-Skrulls, possessing all-new powers.

Part FOUR!

This is the PRO-FAN SILVER-AGE TRIVIA CONTEST at WizardWorld Chicago in 2006. The panel was hosted by COMICS BUYER’S GUIDE columnist, Craig Shutt (Mr. Silver-Age). The representative for the comics pros was Mark Waid, who answered questions via cell-phone, as he couldn’t make it to Chicago. A panel of comics fans competed against Waid on comics trivia from the Silver-Age of comic books.

This is part four of six. Nearly the entire contest was filmed by me, but my camera ran out of juice before the final outcome. SPOILER! Mark Waid won. But, see if you get the answers correct, yourself.
