Vranx is a Skrull who has murderous and criminal tendencies. At a young age he killed his own parents and traveled across the universe assuming new identities and killing more people and starting new crimes. He was always running from his brother Raze, who sought to avenge his parents death.
Raze finally met Vranx on a populated planet three galaxies away from their home. He escaped Raze when the Silver Surfer interfered. But the Surfer and Raze soon teamed up to capture Vranx. The Surfer easily subdued him, but Raze broke his promise and killed the defenseless Vranx.
