The chitauri are an ancient technologically advanced race of extraterrestrial fanatics dedicated to controlling all other life in the universe, eradicating that which they cannot control.
It is believed that the Chitauri came to this planet in 1777 and have been responsible for multiple genocidal disasters.
Earth's Chitauri were apparently wiped out during the latter stages of the war, purged form Europe and Africa., their training camps bombed at Hiroshima and Nagaski.

 Chitauri - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Notably, the recent proliferation of this word into the realms of popular use, can be attributed to BSun, b.Orient and Nota, citizens of the Divided Kingdom Republic, primarily through their expansion of the word's use, to encompass all facets of what they see as the, 'synthetic,' 'non,'-reality, of day-to-day 21st Century life.
This seems to allege that modern man, by succumbing to his 'Chitauri' instincts, is now trapped in a spiralling cycle of 're-creation,' in which he disassembles, and attempts to improve, a world he is not responsible for creating in the first place.
As a result the world is imbalanced in favour of the ‘Reptoid,’ nature, while the population is being conditioned to believe and accept that this state of affairs is the only possibility.

Henry Pym is portrayed as merely hotheaded rather than abusive and unstable (although a scene in which he yells at the Wasp is clearly meant to invoke the abusive aspect of his character, for those aware of the original source material).
In The Ultimates, it is never mentioned that the Chitauri use vibranium as armor and is highly unlikely, since they are easily killed by conventional weaponry rather than the vibranium-tipped bullets used in Ultimate Avengers.
The battle against the Chitauri is much more expansive in the Ultimates, involving dozens of ships, a vast but unknown number of ground troops, at least two countries, and a bomb capable of destroying the entire solar system.

The Chitauri and their leader, Captain America's wartime nemesis, Herr Kleiser, have proven to be formidable enemies of The Ultimates.
A reptilian alien race based on the mainstream Marvel Skrulls, the Chitauri also appear to be partly based on the shape-shifting reptiles of the conspiracy theories of David Icke.
However, a fleet of Chitauri motherships suddenly arrive, bringing news that their enemies across the galaxy have been fighting back, and that they had been driven to the backwater of the galaxy.

The Chitauri causes all kinds of trouble before escaping in a small landing craft just before the ship is destroyed.
Eventually, the Wakandans come to their senses, thanks largely to the giant Chitauri ship that parks itself directly over the country and covers the sky with a translucent green membrane from which descend thousands of ships and multi-legged ground assault vehicles.
Of course, the only way to defeat the Chitauri mothership is to fly into the belly of the beast and cut out its heart.

During their long internment in the Black Nebula, the captured Chitauri tried on several occasions to break free, but each time they were swiftly repelled by the automated guardians that stood watch over them.
The Chitauri immediately began the heavy industrialization of their world, and sought to discover new technologies that could give them an edge over their captors.
These Chitauri studied their newfound fl arts with an insatiable voracity, and soon learned how to fuse the material and immaterial together to create unholy new inventions undreamt of by any Chitauri or Galadoran before.

Ultimate: In this universe, the Skrull are known as the Chitauri, and have been on Earth since the 1930s, when they helped Hitler organize that Nazi party and begin the Second World War.
The Chitauri are also shape-shifters, but they must actually ingest the flesh of the entity whom they want to replicate in order to transform.
Apparently, the Chitauri are not 3-dimensional beings in their natural form and maintain their physical humanoid forms in order to interact with our world.

Their whole reason for coming together was to fight the Chitauri rather than the surfacing of Magneto and the need for there to be a superhero team to fight supervillains.
The Chitauri werent introduced until volume 2, not the end of volume 1.

Fury explains that the Chitauri are eight feet tall and reptilian in appearance and have the ability to assume human form, a power which they utilized to infiltrate the German political scene of the 1920’s and precipitate both the rise of National Socialism and one Adolf Hitler.
Fury says the Chitauri did that because the Nazis were closest they ever came to global domination, but by 1945 they had been driven out of Europe and the entire African continent, with Nagasaki and Hiroshima taking care of their little Japanese training camps.
They are allowed to, but the scientists say that the Chitauri lose control of their Chameleonic hold after ninety-eight minutes, so they better be prepared for a not so beautiful sight.

 Broken Frontier | The Portal for Quality Comics Coverage!
In the present day, Nick Fury is gathering a team of superheroes, to be led by the recently recovered Captain America to battle the oncoming Chitauri invasion (why it takes the aliens 60 years to attack is beyond me).
From the opening scene of Cap in World War 2 to the final battle with the Chitauri, the action scenes are a lot of fun to watch.
The characters are shown with their proper sense of power, the action is fluid; and while not especially hi-tech, the animation is nice enough to not be too noticeable.

 Ultimate Avengers 2 review (2006) Rise of the Panther - Qwipster's Movie Reviews
Released just six months after the Ultimate Avengers, this sequel continues the look and style of the first film in terms of the cinematic feel and production design, but it is a slight step down in terms of the tight plotting and level of excitement.
In this chapter, in the enigmatic, advanced African nation of Wakanda, the king there is killed by WWII Nazi maniac, Herr Kleiser, who is leading the alien Chitauri invasion of the land.
It turns out the secret to the Chitauri invasion lies in the rich Vibranium resources they possess, which will make the Earth invasion they are planning nearly impervious to modern weaponry.

 Chitauri - Wikipedia
Chitauri è il nome di una razza aliena che tenta di impadronirsi del mondo nell'universo dei fumetti ultimate Marvel.
La similitudine con gli Skrull è confermata da un dialogo tra il comandante dei Chitauri e Wasp, presa prigioniera nel corso di una battaglia.
Rispetto agli Skrull, figli di una fantascienza più ingenua e datata, i Chitauri sono caratterizzati con molta più ferocia e cinismo e in modo più sottile.

 Ultimate Avengers 2
After watching his father’s murder (in a pretty gruesome scene) at the hands of the Chitauri leader Klieser, Prince T’Challa becomes king of Wakanda and assumes the mantle of The Black Panther.
The Avengers are then told exactly why the aliens have invaded Wakanda, they are after the massive Vibranium deposit buried deep beneath the ground, that the people have used to forge their weapons (which also answered the question of how the hell the natives could pierce Iron Man’s armor with spears).
I found this to be odd because at point during the film Dr. Banner discovers that the Hulk’s gamma radiated body actually weakens the alien’s Vibranium armor….one would’ve thought this would’ve played into the Hulk getting some more smash time, but sadly that wasn’t the case.

And then it is said, however, that when the Chitauri came to Earth, they arrived in terrible vessels which flew through the air, vessels which were shaped like great bowls and which made a terrible noise and a terrible fire in the sky.
And the Chitauri told human beings, whom they gathered together by force with whips of lightning, that they were great gods from the sky and that from now on they would receive a number of great gifts from the god.
Now, the Chitauri, further, removed the sacred rain-bringing mist from the sky and for the first time since creation, human beings looked up and saw stars, and the Chitauri told human beings that they have been wrong in believing that God dwelt under the Earth.

After returning to Wakanda, Prince T’Challa discovers that his kingdom is under attack by the returning Chitauri (the aliens from the first film).
When the Avengers arrive in Wakanda, Black Panther reveals that the Chitauri are invading because they seek the Heart of Wakanda, which is a mountain of unrefined Vibranium capable of producing dangerous weapons.
My other main gripe with the film, which is perhaps the biggest draw back of this sequel, was the return of the Chitauri.

 Printer Friendly: The Ultimates #13 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
The Ultimates' battle with the Chitauri takes a turn for the better as Bruce Banner is provoked into releasing the Hulk into the fray.
The Hulk's introduction (beautifully rendered in one of the many superb splash pages by Bryan Hitch) serves to turn the tide in the Ultimates' battle against the Chitauri, allowing the creative team to get away with cinematic action and widespread destruction on a scale which outstrips anything in the title to date.
Millar shows that a solid understanding of character and motivation doesn't have to come at the expense of excitement and dynamism, utilising the different personalities present in the super-hero team to their fullest whilst never skimping on out and out action.

As the second movie gets going, we soon see that Hank and Janet Pym are suffering from marital stress and as much as Janet tries to support her husband, he's angry and somewhat violent.
T'Challa, the Black Panther, isn't interested in the Chitauri's motivations since Kleiser killed his father, which bestowed the Black Panther role on his shoulders, and he's out for bloody vengeance.
Thankfully, the alien threat is matched by the presence of the Black Panther as the writers have raised the stakes even higher for the sequel.
