History

The Chitauri were an alien race native to the planet Chitauri Prime that was a harsh world that was also home to the galaxy's most brutal gladiatorial games. (Nova v5 #20)

A covert group from the Nova Corps was responsible for acquiring a Recorder that contained sensitive data within it. The vessel carrying the android was attacked by the Chitauri where Titus of the Novas surrendered the Recorder in exchange for his life. He joined the Chitauri forces where he rose in the ranks and they deciphered the encrypted data within the machine which was revealed to contain the means to make an Ultimate Nullifier. (Nova v5 #4)

Overview

Members

Notes

  • The Chitauri first appeared in the Ultimate Marvel universe but were adapted to appear on the Avengers live-action movie. Since that time, the movie version of the Chitauri have appeared within the comics and other media.
  • In Avengers World v1 #9, a possible future indicated that the universe suffered from the Fourth Chitauri War which saw Earth become a stopover destination for intergalactic mercenaries and traders.

In other media

Television

  • In Ultimate Spider-Man, the episode "Guardians of the Galaxy" feature the Chitauri where they were shown to be a barbaric horde that ruled much of the galaxy and headed by the warlord Korvac. They approached Earth as they were threatened by its various superheroes but were opposed by the Guardians of the Galaxy. This led to them chasing down Rocket Raccoon though he sought the help of team member Sam Alexander who operated as Nova. With Spider-Man's help, they assisted the rest of the Guardians who destroyed the Chitauri flagship before they could use their dark matter cannon to annihilate Earth.
  • In Avengers Assemble, they were referenced in the episode "The Arsenal" when alien fighters began attacking Earth whereby J.A.R.V.I.S. commented that scans did not indicate they were Kronan, Chitauri or Spartax creations.

Films

  • In Avengers, the Chitauri feature as an extradimensional horde of alien beings that serve Thanos and dispatched by him to invade Earth after Loki uses the Tesseract to open a gateway to New York City. After the portal is opened, they begin their invasion but face opposition from the newly formed Avengers. Despite this resistance, the Chitauri would have overwhelmed the superheroes so long as the portal remained opened. This led to Iron Man taking a nuclear warhead that had been launched at the city and sending it through the dimensional barrier where he sent it towards the Chitauri mothership and destroyed it. The loss of the control signal from the mothership killed all the alien invaders and the portal to the other world was shut down thus ending the invasion.
