Skurge is born Jotunheim and is half Asgardian and half Frost Giant.  He grew up being an outsider in both Frost Giants and the Asgardians.  His first major forays were as a warrior against the Storm Giants.  Skurge is often shown with the Enchantress.  He has real feelings for her that she uses against him and turns him into a thrall (slave).  Enchantress at later points is shown having real feelings for Skurge as well but she generally does not act on them.
 
 Loki has the Enchantress and Skurge attack Thor where they are beaten.  Later, the pair are deemed to be troublemakers are exiled to Midgard by Odin.  They then join the original Masters of Evil beneath the leadership of Baron Zemo.  The pair help battle the Avengers but are defeated by the super hero team multiple times.

Skurge begins using an army of trolls.  First he uses the army to attack Asia in a scheme with the Mandarin.  Then he leads the troll army against Asgard itself.  In both cases he is defeated.  He battles Doctor Strange and the Defenders with the Enchantress as is defeated both times.

Death:
Enchantress begins a relationship with Heimdall leaving Skurge free of her mental enslavement.  Hela also tricks Skurge into believing that Enchantress is dead.  When he learns of his this trickery he is enraged at being mocked.   He joins an expedition to battle the forces of Hel with Thor.  During the mission in Hel the group of heroes is being pursued by all of the demonic army of Hela.  The group reaches the bridge of Gjallerbru where Thor swears to defend the bridge until all mortal souls are allowed to pass.  Skurge knocks out Thor from behind.  He explains to Balder that he wishes to remain behind to exact vengance on Hela for tricking him and for his own redemption.  Balder agrees to Skurges plan and leaves with Thor, the Einherjar and the mortal souls.

Skurge remains alone on Gjallerbru armed with a variety of M-16 rifles.  He battles all manner of demon as they attempt to cross the bridge.  While he stood no one was able to cross the bridge.  His last stand greatly impresses Hela.  Eventually the armies of Hela overrun him and he is brought to Hel to be one of Hela's consorts.

Skurge in Hel does not sit well with Thor and Balder.  The pair return and see that he is rightfully released into Valhalla warrior paradise.  He asks Thor and Balder to toast his name and both do.

The Enchantress attempted to attack Yggdrasil to free the Executioner from Valhalla but was convinced away from this scheme by Balder and Thor. The Enchantress replaces Skurge with new god named Keep.
