The Super-Skrulls are the elite shock troops, infiltrators, and special operatives of the Skrull Empire. Super soldiers who have been given super powers, usually those of Earth's heroes but also that of other aliens (e.g. Shi'ar Imperial Guard or the Silver Surfer). Originally their powers were technological in nature (e.g. cybernetic implants) which simulated those powers, but eventually the Skrulls were able to give the Super-Skrulls those super powers at the genetic level. Super-Skrulls can be Skrull warriors who volunteered to undergo the enhancement to become Super-Skrulls. They can also be lab-grown clones who were "born" as Super-Skrulls.
The Skrull Empire deploys the Super-Skrulls individually or in squadrons that can be dozens strong. Assignments given to Super-Skrulls have included protecting Skrull worlds, serving as front-line combat shock troops, as doppelgangers of superheroes, or as sleeper agents. The size of the Super-Skrull force is unknown but in the Skrull invasion of Earth, thousands of Super-Skrulls were deployed in New York City alone. Super-Skrulls are trained at special facilities, such as the "War-Moon" orbiting Tarnax IV which was destroyed along with the throneworld by Galactus and the multiple training centers on Tarnax VII which were destroyed by the Kree Starbrand a decade after the invasion of Earth.
The Skrull warrior (and future emperor) Kl'rt the Super-Skrull was the first Super-Skrull, the original and greatest of all the Super-Skrulls. He was given technological enhancements to simulate the powers of the Fantastic Four. Kl'rt was sent to conquer Earth and ended up being more than a match for the Fantastic Four but ultimately failed in his mission.
In the aftermath of the Kree-Skrull War, several of Earth's greatest super heroes who recently formed the Illuminati went to the Skrull throneworld to warn the Skrulls to stay away from Earth. The heroes were captured and confined by the Skrulls who tortured them, downloaded from their brains all their knowledge, and took their DNA samples.
The Chief Scientist Granok in his attempt to recreate the lost gene of the Warskrulls experimented on Skrull Mutants, and used the gained knowledge to create a comprehensive personality matrix which allowed infiltrators to survive even genetic testing and telepathic examination. The Head Priest of the Sciences, Dro'ge would use Granok's research to perfect the Super-Skrull program. He discovered how to manipulate the DNA samples they took from the Illuminati to create improved Super-Skrulls. Using science and magic they created Super-Skrulls that were imbued with the memories and powers of the subjects and could not be detected by technology, magic, telepathy, or various superhuman senses.
During the invasion of Earth, the Skrulls deployed thousands of Super-Skrulls which did battle with Earth's defenders in orbit, the Moon and various locations across Earth (e.g. New York City, the Savage Land, Israel, Wakanda, and San Francisco). The greatest concentration of Super-Skrulls were in New York City in which a ground assault force of thousands of Super-Skrulls were used. The Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. Facility was attacked by over a hundred Super-Skrulls and in Camp Hammond were dozens of Super-Skrulls who had infiltrated the Initiative program. In the final battle in New York, the Super-Skrulls deployed hundreds of Super-Skrulls.
