Why is Marvels King of Space Attacking Earth in EMPYRE

Marvel’s next star-studded event will be Empyre, as the heroes of Earth (and beyond) are about to come face-to-face with the full wrath of the newly formed Kree/Skrull alliance. Marvel has released a ton of previews for the event, but the question remains: what has caused Hulkling to willingly attack his former home?

Hulkling’s connection to the Kree/Skrull throne isn’t the big question. Back in the pages of New Avengers, it’s revealed that his parents were a Skrull and a Kree. Their forbidden love was unheard of given the ongoing war between the two races. However, since Teddy Altman was the first child of the two races, he was named the Dorrek VIII as the future leader of the empires. In Incoming #1, Teddy embraces his Kree/Skrull roots and leaves his fiancé Wiccan to lead the army without explanation.

Teddy’s got a big heart. While there are hints the Skrulls want revenge for the events of Secret Invasion, that’s not a good enough reason for him to ascribe to their war on Earth. Ultimately, Hulkling has to have some ulterior motive and has to have a bigger plan than just destroying Earth. Is he leading the Kree/Skrulls into a fight they can’t win intentionally? Is he willing to kill his former friends? It’s all up in the air right now. As of right now, the Empyre event is built on increasingly rickety legs.

Leaving the love of his life as well as the planet he grew up on to lead the Kree/Skrulls is one thing, but what makes him completely turn against Earth and its heroes? It hasn’t been revealed, yet. It’s believable that he joined the Kree/Skrull armada stop the two’s thousands-year-long war, however, but that doesn’t explain why he would then turn his attention to Earth. It’s where he’s from. Where he met his fiancé. It’s where he planned on staying until he was called into action. It’s such an abrupt heel turn, heritage be damned, that there’s got to be a lot more going on. We’ll find out soon enough when Marvel’s Empyre #1 hits shelves on April 15. Check out Jamie McKelvie and Matt Wilson’s new cover.
