I haven't read it, but I know of the revelation.

As much as I liked Bobbi turning up alive and enjoyed the mini-series I find the explanation for her return lacking since it ignores what happened to her after she died; i.e., her resurrection as a member of Grim Reaper's Lethal Legion and the message she sent back to Clint when the Thunderbolts went to Hell to bring her back.

I'll eventually be doing a specific Mockingbird readthrough. Do you know which issues those can be found in?

I do really wish some of that could be incorporated as having still happened.

AVENGERS vol.3 #10-11. It was followed up on in T-BOLTS 2000 ANNUAL (which had a brief Bobbi cameo), and issue #3 of the HELLCAT miniseries by Steve Englehart.

It still happened--it just wasn't truly Bobbi. This is hardly the first example of someone who turned up in the Legion Of The Unliving who was later revealed to not have actually been dead at the time.

In this particular case, it was probably the essence of the Skrull imposter, still with Bobbi's personality and memories--so acting just as the real Bobbi would if it were really her.

It's interesting how with most of the named Skrulls who were part of the invasion, we get to see into their heads a bit, but we don't really know anything about H'rpra's motivations. Did she really think that she was Bobbi, or did she just get inspired by the people around her and choose to act as Bobbi would?

[Digifiend]

She could've been so immersed that she believed she really was Bobbi - just like Mar-Vell's Skrull imposter, who thought he was time displaced.

where is she now?

where is she now?

H'rpra or Bobbi? Last we saw H'rpra, she was hanging out with Dead Girl and Gwen Stacy. Bobbi's been showing up occasionally in Spider-Man/Deadpool, and she'll be in the new Unstoppable Wasp, which starts in October (Bobbi will appear in the second issue).

I need somebody to make a real-life copy of that jacket for me.

Doesn't Bobbi's costume have wings (since ANAD Amazing Spider-Man)? Why would Janet need to carry her? I think Whitley dropped the ball there.
