Kruun

Kruun is an extraterrestrial male comic villain who features in Marvel Comics.

Biography

Kruun was the despotic ruler of the alien planet known as the Breakworld. After the Breakworld psychics, known as the "Augurs", predicted the destruction of their planet at the hands of an unknown mutant from Earth, Kruun dispatched his subordinate, Ord, to eliminate the threat. Following Ord's failure and the discovery that the Mutant destined to destroy Breakworld was the X-Man Colossus, Kruun dispatched an armada of Bruteships to Earth to finish the job. Agent Abigail Brand of S.W.O.R.D. subsequently abducted Colossus and the other X-Men, teleporting them onto a spaceship bound for the Breakworld, in an attempt to lure the armada away from Earth. Kruun took the bait and ordered the Bruteships to pursue the S.W.O.R.D. vessel.

As his plan unfolds, and the "Retaliator", a giant missile-like bullet meant to destroy Earth, is hurled against the planet with Kitty Pryde trapped inside. Colossus, understanding the meaning of the prophecies, disarms him with the help of Wolverine. Colossus then asks Kruun again how to stop the Retaliator, as now, wounded, crippled and beaten, Kruun will be unable to rule his planet. Kruun is still unable to help, as the Retaliator has no safeguard to be used, but he's deposed, and in a fashion in line with his tyrannical rule on Breakworld, is destroyed by Colossus, paving the way for a reformation.
