The MCU has a villain problem and Gravik is a part of it.
Editor's note: The below contains spoilers for Secret Invasion Episode 5.After introducing Gravik as a villain with a purpose in the premiere, Secret Invasion failed to justify why the shapeshifter Skrull posed such a threat to humanity. Episode after episode, Gravik lets his emotions get the best of him while making rushed decisions that don’t help his world-domination plan. Like most of the series Skrulls, from time to time Gravik even forgets he can shapeshift.
Navigating the minefield of immigration politics was a risky move for a superhero show. Yet, by keeping a low scope and leaving the supers out of the equation, Marvel Studios did have the chance to release the most essential Marvel storyline since Avengers: Endgame. Furthermore, the complex context of the Skrull insurgence imposes a challenge worthy of a superspy like Fury because, as bad as Gravik could be, he was still serving the Skrull cause.
Gravik is awful, and we always knew Fury had to take him down. Still, reducing the political reach of Gravik by turning him into a megalomaniac villain means Secret Invasion will take the easy way out instead of discussing the complicated questions it raises. Making Gravik a villain, even to those who follow him, is Secret Invasion's way to free the Skrulls to accept a peaceful cohabitation with humans once their leader dies.
