[QUOTE=Zeeguy91;4486607]Yeah, you'd think your friends and family wouldn't be so jovial about the time when you essentially fell in love with your buddy's now-wife and married her only to have it revealed that you'd essentially been raped by a shapeshifting alien.[/QUOTE]
Then the shapeshifting alien promptly pretends to be pregnant in order to keep you with her and then admits to lying.
This level of vomitous content could have been avoided if Lyja actually believed she was Alicia via memory transplant and wasn't aware she was a Skrull. Sure, it would still be morally wrong, but at least it removes Lyja knowingly raping Johnny.
It would also set up Secret Invasion well since Lyja could have been some kind of prototype for all the Skrulls who had the memories and personality of people they replicated. Sure, it would be a coincidence that a similar thing would happen years later, but it would make the Illuminati look less stupid.

Everyone is forgetting she was made / forced to do this by Paibok.
-
The counterclaim for this is that she could have betrayed Paibok and revealed the truth willingly, anytime.

[QUOTE=Dermie;4486022]Ben did win once before -- in Steve Englehart's run, when Ben was in his stronger, spikier Thing form and Hulk was in his grey "Joe Fixit" days. It was great to see Ben get at least one victory in the ongoing Thing/Hulk grudge matches. I'd love to see another one. :)[/QUOTE]
Who's immortal now?

[QUOTE=Crimz;4486000]Hulk fans would be pissed, but I want Ben to win for once and finally be one of Marvel’s heavy hitters again.[/QUOTE]
The Hulk/Thing grudge match should always have been portrayed as a more even thing. Sometimes Hulk wins, sometimes Thing...but a fair amount of draws thrown in as well.
-
Forget Hulk vs Thing. I wanna see Grimm vs Banner. Ben wins with one punch.

Priced at 4.99
Anyone know why it's a higher cost

You'd need to powerup Ben for that, not job Hulk out.
I'm all for a stronger Ben, but actually I write that consistently. Otherwise you'll get the same situation when he beat Namor underwater.
One shifty looking win for Ben, and then back to being a 3rd string strongman.

It has a Future Foundation extra story.

I see, thanks
I did decide after two bumper priced issues by issue six (iirc) that I would drop any marvel book that had a price bump when it wasn't an anticipated one like for an anniversary number
Another one in only twelve issues, for what is for me an advert
I won't budge on it, I'm tired of marvel doing this, I guess I'll be dropping the FF from my pull then
-
oh thank god i thought each story was 10 pages but it's f4 =20 and ff =10
-
And according to Marvel's Youtube, Julie Power is going to appear in the FF story!
Oh and the Fantastic Four do something I guess.
-
I dunno if it’s been said before, but Reed Richards is a zaddy.

So can Sharon change back once a year too?

Doubt it, she didn't get a serum from the Future Foundation. Plus, Doom messed her up too so her physiology is not exactly like Ben's/
