12 Past MCU Easter Eggs That Will Mean Something In Phase 4

6. The Skrull Alphabet - Guardians Of The Galaxy

The Easter Egg

Back in Guardians Of The Galaxy, James Gunn included a brief snippet of the Skrull Alphabet in a computer scanner screen on Xandar, possibly as a nod to the fact that Gunn originally wanted to have a Skrull in his movie:

"It's something that we've talked a lot about dealing with. I almost put a Skrull in the Ravagers. But I'm really excited they're coming about, and I think it's going to be fun to see where they go from there, and what happens with the Skrulls in the future of the Marvel Universe. I'm a huge fan of the Skrulls."

How It Will Come Back

We know that the Skrulls will debut in Captain Marvel, and there can't be any way that will be the end of them. Surely we're going to see Secret Invasion in Phase 4? There has to be a reason Marvel disappeared for 20 years and then reappears for Avengers 4.

And having that tied to the reveal of Skrull infiltrators is the smartest approach.
