Are Skrulls *always* evil in Marvel Comics?
It is my understanding that in Marvel Comics, Skrulls are considered evil. For instance, in The Skrull Invasion, the Skrulls are the bad guys kidnapping people and such. I thought the Skrulls were evil. At least, that was my understanding until very recently.
In Captain Marvel, the Skrulls are portrayed as the ones who are actually the good guys, instead of the Kree.
This came as a total shock to me, as I always thought the Skrulls were totally evil. While comic book Movies/TV generally don't always adapt things perfectly from the comics (Civil War, or the Trial of the Flash are good examples), I don't think they usually go that far off.
So, what I guess I'm asking is, while the Kree and the Skrulls definitely enemies, does Marvel usually take the side of the Kree and designate the Skulls as "evil", or is it usually more complicated than that?

Well, take a look at Guardians of the Galaxy vol.1 - the Kree are bad guys, no doubt. If this is consistent among the MCU, this is likely to not be designated for Skrulls to be evil, as Kree already are

That's true, I suppose. However, is that consistent with the comics, though? Are there some good and evil on both sides?
