Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Empyre (Comic Book) / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: The Kree and the Skrulls are against Billy and Teddy being together because of their prejudice against humans, not homophobia, but the arguments they use echo common anti-gay sentiments (for example, they say that being attached to Billy is childish and Teddy needs to grow up now that he's Emperor, which is similar to the prejudice that being gay is just a phase and when someone becomes "mature" they will couple up heterosexually).

The final page of Empyre: Avengers #0 has Iron Man doing a speech on how the Avengers are united and will fight the coming invasion, "no matter who gets in the way"...and then we see the Fantastic Four part of the Kree/Skrull fleet. Though this turns out to be a case of Never Trust a Trailer.

Underestimating Badassery: A curious one, where the Cotati play this straight and avert it. They acknowledge T'Challa is the most dangerous man on Earth, and make a very good stab at killing him...then immediately assume he's dead just because they can't feel a pulse, without bothering to be very sure he's properly dead.

Dead All Along: Jennifer Walters wasn't using Cotati meditation. She was killed back in issue #1 and implanted with a Cotati a la Alien. It was wearing her skin and speaking with her voice from the very beginning. The real Tanalth the Kree died years ago. The one readers have known has actually been Empress R'Klll all along.

Tanalth isn't entirely onboard with Hulkling's agenda, manipulating him for her own gain and organizing an assassination attempt on him by like-minded Kree. Then it turns out she's not Tanalth, but Teddy's grandmother R'Klll and actually wants to manipulate Teddy into becoming a more ruthless ruler.

In Fantastic Four: Fallout, the Profiteer attempts to reclaim Jo-Venn and N'Kalla, pointing out that she has a contract with the Skrull and Kree Empires. Reed has just called the Avengers Assemble to defend the kids when Teddy points out the glaring flaw in the Profiteer's contract. It was for the Skrull and Kree Empires, but they no longer exist, so the contract's null.

Mythology Gag: Issue 3 has an alien army facing off against Wakandans chanting "yibambe", while the alien forces rip themselves to shreds trying to get through Wakanda's forcefield, taken right out of Avengers: Infinity War. Another reference to the film when Quoi and Swordsman arrive via portal to Wakanda's vibranium mound, and Panther says "We're in the endgame now."

More than Mind Control: Empyre: Avengers has Tony, normally a skeptical guy, going all in on the Cotati's words, and his narration even has him noting there's something about their moon garden that's making him act off. Quoi confirms in Issue #2 that the Cotati were mentally manipulating him before the event started.

The Man Behind the Man: Her dialogue in the Avengers epilogue characterizes R'Klll as always being this.

Then, when informed of her grandson, started devising schemes to exploit the legend prophesizing his birth to seize even greater power through both empires of the Kree and Skrulls.

Cool Versus Awesome: As the first X-Men tie-in says in big letters on a full page once the plot kicks off: Alien Plants vs. Mutant Zombies. The ending has to amend it: Alien Plants vs. Mutant Zombies vs. Old Ladies.

Paper-Thin Disguise: Empress R'Klll's attempt at playing Teddy is piss-poor. It doesn't fool Carol and Johnny Storm for a moment, and Wiccan only needs to look at a recording of her for an instant to know that he's not looking at the man he loves.

Dueling Messiahs: In one corner, we've got Dorrek VIII, son of Captain Mar-Vell and the Skrull Princess Anelle, holder of the sword Excelsior, prophesied King of Space (or Hulkling, as he prefers to be called). In the other, we've got Sequoia, the Celestial Messiah, leader of the Cotati in their plan to bring peace to the universe. And no, they're not going to get along.

Wham Shot: The final page of Empyre: Avengers #0 has Iron Man doing a speech on how the Avengers are united and will fight the coming invasion, "no matter who gets in the way"...and then we see the Fantastic Four part of the Kree/Skrull fleet. Though this turns out to be a case of Never Trust a Trailer. Hulkling manages to stop Mjolnir with his sword, Excelsior. Empyre #1 ends with the Kree/Skrull Armada crippled by the Cotati (with a LOT of help from Tony Stark) and Quoi announcing their intent to kill all animal-based life. One assumes that humans are included on that list... Tanalth transforming into R'klll, Queen of the Skrulls and Teddy's grandmother. The revelation that Jennifer Walters was killed by the Cotati back on the moon and the Hulk in the comics was one of their own "seedlings" wearing her form. The final splash page of Empyre #4: Teddy and Billy aren't engaged. Dorrek VIII, King of Space, Emperor of the Unified Kree and Skrulls finally got hitched to Wanda Maximoff's son in a Vegas chapel! Issue 6, as the combined Avengers, Defenders, and NATO confront the Cotati in Wakanda, Thor unleashes the power of Gaea through Mjolnir to remove the Cotati growths across the whole world. Fallout ends with Uatu the Watcher apparently coming Back from the Dead. Aftermath ends with a future vision of Teddy's court apparently massacred as Abigail Brand looks on from a portal to assist the dying Teddy.

The Atoner: The plot of the X-Men tie-in is Wanda being overcome with guilt over M-Day and, following Doctor Strange's advice to try a greater act in penance, attempting to resurrect the mutants killed in the genocide of Genosha. Needless to say, something like that doesn't go well. Both Kl'rt and Captain Glory swear to atone for their misdeeds by Empyre's end. Kl'rt becomes an intergalactic diplomat for using the Pyre and killing billions of Skrulls to stop the Cotati. Captain Glory accepts a prison sentence for his part in R'klll's coup but promises to fight for Teddy if he is ever called on to do so.

Chicken-and-Egg Paradox

comment
Chicken-and-Egg Paradox: In Issue #1, Reed Richards is working out whether Hulkling forged the alliance between the Kree and Skrulls, or if the alliance came first and they then made him their leader. He compares it to the chicken-and-egg question, then gets Sidetracked by the Analogy, pointing out that since reptiles lay eggs and birds evolved from reptiles, naturally the egg came first. Sue bemusedly tells him to get back on-topic.

comment
Disproportionate Retribution: The Cotati trying to kill the Kree makes narrative sense, all things considered, given the Kree tried to genocide them first. However, the Cotati's motivation for going after the Skrulls is...the Skrulls instigated the whole thing with the contest for uplifting that the Cotati didn't want and never needed. So now they've written off ALL animal life as incorrigibly corrupt and deserving of extinction.

Fantastic Racism
 Empyre (Comic Book) / int_57b80b45
comment
Fantastic Racism: The Kree and Skrulls per usual show cultural posturing with each other and racial disdain for humans. They pressure Teddy into publicly renouncing his betrothal to Billy, even though he's a powerful reality warper, because neither side will accept a human "monkey" consort to the throne. The Cotati are shown to despise "meat animals" for their violent, savage ways and seek to exterminate them as inferior life. Like many racists, they are complete hypocrites. It was evil human scientist Wastrel, and not Lauri-ell, who murdered everyone in the Kree-Skrull refugee city. Wastrel was harmed decades ago by the Kree in the crossfire between Captain Mar-vell and another Kree warrior, but he's so obsessed with hatred of the Kree that he'll murder innocent Kree (and Skrulls, even though they had nothing to do with him) just because their existence offends him.

Green Thumb: To an extreme degree. The Cotati have developed an amplifier that magnifies their plant-controlling abilities to weaponize plant life by making it grow until it completely rips their enemies apart. They use it to decimate most of the Kree/Skrull fleet by making their food supplies massively grow and cripple the ships.

Sequel Hook: Two of these, first in Empyre Fallout: Fantastic Four it's discovered that some of the Cotati had golden guns and swords that are far more advanced than anything the Kree or Skrull had, Profiteer looks them over and tells the Alliance that the weapons are incredibly ancient. Nick Fury as the Unseen looks at them and discovers they were from the First Race - a species that predates the Elders of the Universe and Celestials, this leads to Uatu the Watcher emerging from one of Nick's eyes and Uatu promises a reckoning. Then there's the Ironic Echo Cut Flash Forward mentioned above where Captain Glory is dead while a badly injured Teddy mutters that his grandma was right and then Abigail Brand with some heavily armed companions barge in to handle things in The Last Annihilation.

Then he starts to assert his power over the supposed thronemasters Tanalth and Kl'rt... What the Avengers are to the Cotati, who use their assumption of the Kree and Skrulls being evil so that the heroes would help take down the armada sent to stop them.

Gaia's Vengeance
 Empyre (Comic Book) / int_7831b670
comment
Gaia's Vengeance: Zig-zagged; The Cotati are driven by revenge against the Kree's persecution of their people, and by extension all of animal life's degradation of plant life. Thor's canceled tie-in miniseries would have detailed him questing for guidance from his mother, Gaea herself. In the climactic issue of the event she is shown to have empowered Thor to fight, as according to him she emphatically does not agree with their motivation.

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: The Avengers unilaterally backing the Cotati ends up being a terrible mistake, as they easily curbstomp the united Kree/Skrull armada, allowing Quoi to take center stage as the true Big Bad. Wanda seeking to atone for M-Day creates an Artifact of Doom that causes a Zombie Apocalypse. Aa Abigail points out to Carol a lot of grief could have been prevented if they kept SWORD in the loop to do their job.

The Magic Versus Technology War
 Empyre (Comic Book) / int_8204a6ad
comment
The Magic Versus Technology War: Generally it's the high tech versus the magical. The Alliance has Kree-Skrull tech including a sun destroying weapon, as well as the Mad Science tech the superheroes use. Against this, the technology rejecting Cotati have swords and bows and don't even bother looting enemies for their guns. It'd be a one-sided fight if it weren't for the Cotati having sorcery and magical artifacts. That said the Alliance aren't really against magic. They do have a sorceress and the Star-Sword, as well as the help of superhero magic-users.

For all his derision of humans, Swordsman is all too willing to hold his own son hostage just to make the Avengers hesitant in attacking when it seems like the battle is lost. This is what ultimately makes T'Challa and the other Avengers decide that he is no longer the Avenger that once sacrificed his own life for everyone.

The Bus Came Back: Quoi, Mantis' son, returns along with his father, the cotati Swordsman in Empyre: Avengers. Captain Glory, of the Lethal Legion from Avengers: No Surrender, and Mur-G'nn, of the Kree-Skrull hybrids who gave Teddy Excelsior back in New Avengers (2015), are part of the Kree-Skrull alliance. Mantis herself returns in issue 3. Quicksilver returns after a year-long absence in the Avengers tie-in. The Unseen (The original Nick Fury) makes a special appearance in the Fantastic Four's epilogue one-shot. Samuel Smithers/Plantman returns during the Avengers tie-in after not being seen in a couple of years.

Foreshadowing: The fact that the murders in Incoming involved the use of vegetation would make even new readers be wary of the Cotati when going into this event. In issue 2, Tanalth mentions Ronan was a hero of the Imperial Kree. Except it was the Imperial Kree who brutally experimented on Ronan back in Death of the Inhumans. Ronan was affiliated with the Utopian Kree, something Captain Glory notices. When he confronts Tanalth about this, she reveals her true identity: Skrull Empress R'Klll.

Continuity Nod: The speech the Kree have at the beginning of Empyre: Avengers is a dark mirror of the one Plex, leader of the Utopian Kree, was shown making in Guardians of the Galaxy (2020). Where that one was all about being nice and helpful, the one Tony sees is about killing everyone who's not a Kree. The Skrulls mention activating a pyre in the past to stop the spread of Cotati in several of their occupied clusters. This instance was actually seen in Guardians of the Galaxy (2020) when Nova was attempting to save the Skrulls there before the weapon activated. Seeing Carol Danver's death glare, Tony compares it to, among other things, the look she had when she punched him into a coma, and a time he tried to take a bottle of booze from her, during her drinking days. While fighting T'Challa, Super-Skrull brings up the time he led the Skrull Empire (after the events of Infinity). At the beginning of issue 5, Teddy mentions he's been taking notes from Roberto "Sunspot" Da Costa (from when he and Billy worked for him in the Avengers Idea Mechanics). Thor being Gaea's son and having a degree of access to her power gets a nod in the solicits for his cancelled tie-in, and is important in the final issue as it allows him to destroy Cotati growths across the world. In Aftermath, Roberto makes a flesh and blood appearance, along with the rest of the A.I.M. team, mentioning he brought Champagne Robot with him. Meanwhile, America Chavez chimes in that if Teddy turns evil, she'll bludgeon him with a chair, as she did to Carol Danvers during Civil War II. Speaking of another Civil War, Tony alludes to the Super Registration Act as an offhand joke, which Cap still seems to be sore about.

Loophole Abuse: When everything seems settled, the Profiteer tries to take Jo-Venn and N'Kalla away along with all the captured weapons. She smugly says the heroes have no choice as it's all part of the contract she has with both the Kree and Skrull empires, gloating that she's the best source of weapons for both and "neither side will want to lose me." Teddy admits she's right...then literally breaks the contract in half while pointing out to the horrified Profiteer that the Kree and Skrull empires no longer exist as separate entities. They're now one Alliance, which renders all previous contracts void, and "we'll be taking our business elsewhere."

Came Back Wrong: Scarlet Witch was so consumed by her guilt over erasing the powers of mutantkind that she tried to make up for it by resurrecting those murdered on Genosha...and accidentally brought them back as zombies.

Wedding Finale
 Empyre (Comic Book) / int_bc80725e
comment
Wedding Finale: Empyre: Aftermath, an epilogue to the series, ends with a proper royal/superhero wedding for Teddy and Billy. Cap, Tony and Thor reminisce about their fallen friend, Captain Mar-Vell. Carol Danvers and Abigail Brand of Alpha Flight have a falling out (with the Kree and Skrull officiants offering to let the two use laser swords to settle the fight). Teddy exercises his royal power and locks up Captain Glory for his coup and makes the Super-Skrull a diplomat to atone for his use of the Pyre. And R'klll prophecies that Teddy's Empire will not survive his kind ways. And apparently it will be ended by none other than Abigail Brand.

Teeth-Clenched Teamwork
 Empyre (Comic Book) / int_c3648b87
comment
Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: The Kree and Skrull Empires may be united under Teddy, but it's clear that it's largely to consolidate power against a common enemy. Teddy still isn't happy with Kl'rt being around, what with Kl'rt having incinerated his step-mother back when they first met. Earth's heroes aren't too happy either about allying with the Kree/Skrull forces, due to the latter willing to resort to more extreme methods to combat their common foes. The X-Men, especially Magik, are in a pissy mood having to work with the Hordeculture against both the mutant zombies and Cotati invaders.

In New Mexico, while the Cotati are repelled rather early on, the Kree-Skrull tensions are rather high, which results in infighting within the ranks, with a group of Avengers (Wonder Man, Mockingbird and Quicksilver) caught in the middle.

Corrupt Corporate Executive: Detailed in Swordsman's solo issue of Lords of Empyre, one had his company observing the Cotati grove at the temple of the Priests of Pama. When they surge in growth he sends a deforestation crew to acquire samples for study. Quoi tries to appease them with a cutting he engineered with miraculous properties, but the one in charge throws it away because it'd take too long to his liking for that to pay off. Thus a grove of innocent Cotati older than most civilizations on Earth ends up completely destroyed, greatly radicalizing Quoi against humanity and by extension animal life.

To a lesser extent the unified Kree-Skrull army has suits that have the appearance of Kree military uniforms with aesthetic modifications for Skrulls like being in their uniforms' color scheme and space added to the helmets for their pointed ears.

What the Hell, Hero?: Abigail Brand slaps Carol for forgetting to call Alpha Flight. She lays into Carol for not informing Alpha Flight about the Cotati or the Kree/Skrull alliance, pointing out that if the organization had known that there was an alien species hidden on the moon they could’ve acted quicker and saved more lives. She condemns Carol's policy of merely treating Alpha Flight like backup that only needs to be kept "in the loop" whenever the Avengers decide to do so and promptly quits.

Hypocrite: For all his derision of humans, Swordsman is all too willing to hold his own son hostage just to make the Avengers hesitant in attacking when it seems like the battle is lost. This is what ultimately makes T'Challa and the other Avengers decide that he is no longer the Avenger that once sacrificed his own life for everyone. The Cotati in general are pretty hypocritical. Quoi calls Mantis out for psychically pushing the Guardians of the Galaxy to reform even though the event is kicked off by them psychically manipulating Tony Stark into attacking the Alliance for their cause. They also previously rejected Swordsman for being half animal even though they all chose for him to do that to father their messiah, who's (originally) intended to unite animals and plants in peace. They also deride animals for being emotional, cruel, violent, and having a whole laundry list of flaws...all of which they display themselves.

Gambit Pileup: By the series' end, the plot resembles a four-lane pileup with a train derailment driven through it. We have: The Cotati plan for galactic domination is to plant a death blossom on Wakanda's vibranium enriched soil, elevating Quoi from a Messiah to a living god. The Kree/Skrull alliance plans to use the Pyre and force Earth's sun to go supernova before the Cotati can plant the Death Blossom. Even if it consumes the Earth in the process. Quoi in turn uses a hidden Earth cult to engineer a mystical "hate beam" to splinter the Alliance and force their soldiers to kill one-another before the Pyre can go off. Which would've suited R'klll just fine anyway, since she was planning to betray the Kree members of the Alliance after her coup-and-switch of the true King, Teddy.

Exact Words: When the Cotati manage to plant a portal on Wakandan soil, T'Challa fears they'll send an army through. His answer? They did. A one-man army, to be precise. In Fantastic Four: Fallout, the Profiteer attempts to reclaim Jo-Venn and N'Kalla, pointing out that she has a contract with the Skrull and Kree Empires. Reed has just called the Avengers Assemble to defend the kids when Teddy points out the glaring flaw in the Profiteer's contract. It was for the Skrull and Kree Empires, but they no longer exist, so the contract's null.

Captain Glory admits this is his reason for supporting Tanalth's coup.

comment
Shoo the Dog: Hulkling tries to break up with Wiccan to appease the Kree and Skrull into accepting his rule without a "primate" consort. It doesn't take; Billy knows Teddy was doing it just to end a centuries-long war and still loves him, and promises to wait for Teddy back on Earth.

Dude, Where's My Respect?
 Empyre (Comic Book) / int_f818b637
comment
Dude, Where's My Respect?: Part of Swordsman's start of darkness involves being shunned by his fellow Cotati for now being part animal, even though they all chose for him to do that as part of their plan to usher in the birth of their messiah.

The Dog Bites Back
 Empyre (Comic Book) / int_fb3576b2
comment
The Dog Bites Back: After eons of being victimized by the Kree, the Cotati are biting back in a bid to eliminate all animal life. Humanity is included in that category, despite never having done anything to them.

Teddy still isn't happy with Kl'rt being around, what with Kl'rt having incinerated his step-mother back when they first met.

Comically Missing the Point
 Empyre (Comic Book) / int_fbd285b7
comment
Comically Missing the Point: When Brand yells at Carol, Hulkling tries intervening and saying it's not the time and place. The Kree and Skrull ambassadors chime in with agreement...because if they want to argue to the death, the alliance has a specially prepared arena on-board their ship for just such a purpose. The Thing whispers to them to stop trying to help.

Well-Intentioned Extremist: The Cotati supposedly want to bring peace to the universe, which sure doesn't sound bad...but it involves eliminating animal life, as they believe it to be the cause of strife across the universe.

Gondor Calls for Aid

comment
Gondor Calls for Aid: In the Fantastic Four's main title, Franklin and Valeria call in Spider-Man and Wolverine to be part of their de facto Fantastic Four team, complete with black and blue-themed variations of their costumes. The following issue reveals that Ghost Rider (Danny Ketch) and the Immortal Hulk were supposed to join them, reuniting the All-New Fantastic Four. But they don't show up. Reed isn't surprised and when Logan and Peter get their uniforms, the kids are given new "4" badges to replace their previous "F" and "V" initial ones. Powerhouse and Brainstorm are now official members of the Fantastic Four!

Death Seeker: T'Challa figures this is what's motivating the Swordsman to try and wipe out all mankind, having inherited just a little too much of the original Swordmsan's self-loathing.
