Where did you guys get the "Skrulls in the MCU use technology to shape-shift" from? I only ever remember them talking about it as an ability that they naturally have

Fun fact the Skrull cows were slaughtered and turned into burger meat. Which was eaten by humans. Which gave them powers and the ability to see through skrulls disguise. They were dubbed the Skrull Kill Crew. And they were helpful in the secret invasion.

The closest thing to a live action, super skrull that we’ve gotten so far is when the Fantastic Four transferred all their powers to The Human Torch so that he could defeat Dr. Doom and get the Silver Surfer’s board back in “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer”.

The Super Skrull makes no sense. If the Skrulls can imitate the powers of those they change into… then, why can’t they do the same with the Fantastic Four? I think, the MCU will eventually make it so that the Skrulls can imitate the powers of others and THAT will become the, “Super Skrulls.” Just my opinion though.

If the Secret Invasion Disney Plus show is about the Skrulls from the first Captain Marvel movie secretly infiltrating the earth, then who were the Skrulls on the S.A.B.E.R space station during Spider-Man Far From Home?
